Urea
CAS No. 57-13-6 / INCI Name: Urea
AGRICULTUREANIMAL FOOD & FEEDANIMAL CARE
Industry: Agriculture / Animal Food & Feed / Animal Care
Urea is commonly used in animal feed as a non-protein nitrogen (NPN) source, particularly for ruminants like cattle, sheep, and goats. Since ruminants have specialized stomachs with microbes that can convert NPN into usable protein, urea helps supplement their diet with a cost-effective protein source. It is often included in mixed feed formulations to promote growth, improve milk production, and support overall animal health. However, urea must be used carefully to avoid toxicity, as excessive amounts can be harmful. It is typically provided in controlled quantities to ensure proper digestion and protein synthesis in the animals.
Key Benefits and Uses of Urea:
Cost-Effective Protein Supplement
Provides a low-cost nitrogen source for ruminants, enabling microbial protein synthesis in the rumen.Supports Growth and Production
Helps improve weight gain, feed efficiency, and milk production in cattle, sheep, and goats.Enhances Nutritional Balance in Feed
Complements energy-rich but protein-deficient diets by providing necessary nitrogen.Controlled Formulation for Safety
Used in carefully measured amounts to ensure effective digestion and avoid toxicity.Widely Applicable in Livestock Farming
Suitable for various ruminant species and compatible with multiple feed systems.
Common Application Include:
Cattle Feed Supplements
Sheep and Goat Nutrition
Mixed Feed Formulations
Protein Balancing in Low-Protein Diets
Ruminant Performance Optimization
