Venworld Boosts Poultry Farming in Coastal Andhra
As part of its “Venworld Connect” initiative, Venkateshwara B. V. Biocorp Pvt Ltd recently conducted a series of impactful technical meetings across the Coastal Andhra region, covering prominent poultry belts of East and West Godavari. Organized between 10th and 14th March 2026, the meetings were held at key locations including Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, and Guntur. The events witnessed strong participation from poultry farmers, integrators, and industry stakeholders, reflecting the growing shift toward scientific nutrition and performance-oriented management practices. Designed to benefit both broiler and layer segments, the meetings focused on delivering practical, field-relevant knowledge supported by scientific advancements.
At the inaugural sessions, Mr. Lokesh R. D. (AGM – South) and Mr. Sri Rani Ravi Kumar (Zonal Manager) addressed the gathering, emphasizing the significance of nutrition in achieving consistent and efficient poultry performance. They reaffirmed Venworld’s commitment to partnering with farmers and industry players by offering transparent, innovative, and science-driven solutions to meet the evolving demands of the poultry sector.
Enhancing Performance through Precision Nutrition
Dr. Sunil Nadgauda (DGM – Technical, VBVBC) led the technical sessions, providing valuable insights into modern broiler nutrition. He emphasized that precision nutrition is essential for achieving optimal performance in today’s high-yielding broiler strains. Highlighting the importance of maintaining the right energy-to-protein ratio, he explained how balanced feed formulation plays a crucial role in supporting growth, feed efficiency, and overall bird health. He further elaborated that targeted nutrition directly influences feed conversion ratio (FCR), body weight gain and production efficiency, and that optimal results depend on efficient nutrient utilization at the bird level. Dr. Nadgauda also introduced the newly launched Densimix 5% composite premix, a scientifically designed formulation aligned with the latest broiler nutritional requirements. The premix is tailored for modern broilers and has demonstrated excellent field results across India, with farmers reporting improved FCR, better weight gain, and consistent flock performance.
He additionally highlighted the importance of premixing in feed preparation, explaining that conventional mixing often leads to uneven distribution of micro-nutrients, resulting in performance variation. In contrast, a well-formulated composite premix ensures uniform nutrient distribution, reducing process losses, segregation and human errors during mixing. This not only simplifies feed preparation but also ensures that birds receive consistent and balanced nutrition in every feed intake, ultimately leading to improved FCR, better growth, enhanced uniformity and overall superior flock performance.
Complementing these discussions, Dr. N. Baburaj (DGM – Technical, South Zone) explained the importance of region-specific vaccination programs based on the common diseases seen in Andhra Pradesh. He highlighted that vaccination schedules should not be the same for every farm, but should be planned according to local disease conditions, farm management and flock status. He explained that proper vaccination helps build strong immunity in birds, but it is equally important to follow the right timing, correct dosage and proper handling of vaccines, including maintaining the cold chain to ensure effectiveness. Dr. N. Baburaj also emphasized that vaccination alone is not enough. It should be supported by good biosecurity, proper farm hygiene, and regular health monitoring. When all these practices are followed together, farmers can effectively control diseases, reduce losses and achieve better flock performance, livability and profitability.
Dr. Pawan Kumar (Technical sales officer) further strengthened the session by sharing farmer success stories, which resonated strongly with the audience. He highlighted the field performance of Densimix 5% premix, demonstrating how its effective use helped farmers achieve better growth, improved FCR and higher weight gain, ultimately leading to enhanced overall flock performance and profitability.
Adding another critical perspective, Dr. Siddhi Velhal (Product Executive) highlighted the importance of biosecurity in modern poultry farming. She emphasized preventive disease management and the role of strict biosecurity protocols in maintaining farm hygiene and ensuring consistent production outcomes. The session also showcased Venworld’s biosecurity solutions designed to help farmers effectively manage disease risks.
Strengthening Layer Productivity and Egg Quality
The meetings also featured dedicated sessions for layer farmers, focusing on sustaining egg production and improving egg quality. Discussions underscored the importance of balanced nutrition and gut health, particularly during the later stages of the laying cycle when maintaining productivity becomes more challenging. Special emphasis was placed on achieving uniform egg size and consistent production, which are key indicators of efficient layer management. Dr. Sunil Nadgauda explained how improved gut health enhances nutrient absorption, directly influencing egg quality parameters such as shell strength, albumen quality and overall egg consistency. He also highlighted the importance of maintaining an optimal calcium to phosphorus (Ca:P) ratio across different production phases to ensure proper eggshell formation and minimize production losses.
A key highlight of the session was EGGXTRA 5% composite premix, a targeted nutritional solution developed specifically for commercial layer operations. The formulation is designed to support sustained egg production, improve egg quality, and ensure a consistent supply of essential nutrients required for optimal flock performance. It also offers flexibility, allowing farmers to incorporate locally available raw materials of their choice, making it both practical and cost-effective. Additionally, the VBVBC nutrition team showcased their expertise in developing customized, farm-specific feed formulations tailored to individual farmer requirements and available resources. This approach enables farmers to optimize feed efficiency, effectively manage input costs, and achieve improved economic returns without compromising production performance. The sessions received highly positive feedback from farmers, who appreciated the practical insights, field-oriented recommendations, and the strong technical support extended by Venworld.
The technical meetings were made possible through the dedicated efforts of Venworld’s sales and technical teams, who ensured their smooth and successful execution. Through these initiatives, Venworld continues to strengthen its commitment to advancing poultry nutrition through science, innovation, and farmer-centric solutions. By emphasizing precision nutrition, gut health, and biosecurity, the company remains a trusted partner in helping poultry farmers achieve improved performance, enhanced profitability, and sustainable growth.
