The amount of calcium formate added to feed varies depending on factors such as animal species, growth stage, and feed formula, and a unified fixed value cannot be given. But generally speaking, the proportion of its addition in the feed will be controlled within a certain range to achieve the best effect. The amount of calcium formate added to feed is a comprehensive consideration based on multiple factors. In practical applications, adjustments should be made based on the specific conditions of the animals and the feed formula to achieve optimal growth and economic benefits.

Calcium formate can be broken down into formate and calcium ions in animal bodies. Formic acid has the effect of reducing the pH value of feed, which helps improve the palatability of feed and promotes animal digestion and absorption of feed. Meanwhile, a lower pH value can also inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms and maintain intestinal health. Adding calcium formate to feed can effectively supplement the calcium element in animal bodies, prevent and treat diseases caused by calcium deficiency.
