A 250 g/ton dose of Proease can replace approximately 20–25 kg soya DOC. If 25 kg soya DOC is reformulated or replaced at once, egg production may dip for 7–8 days and then return to standard. To avoid the dip, choose one approach: (1) Reformulate using full matrix values and step down 5 kg every two days after a short top‑up period; or (2) keep the diet and replace 5 kg soya DOC by DORB every two days until 20–25 kg is reached.

Next 2 days | 225 kg | 25 kg |
