Nature supplies most of these essentials in the form of pasture, bugs and insects, gravel, grains and seeds, sunshine, etc. The following six classes of nutrients are essential to life, growth, production and reproduction in all classes of poultry. It is the poultry keeper's responsibility to market well-finished birds, and eggs of the best quality, in order to secure maximum returns in relation to feed and other costs. The purpose of this publication is to encourage the efficient use of feed on Manitoba farms where poultry and eggs are being produced. The poultry raiser who must buy all his feed knows this full well, and in addition he aims to sell only high quality products otherwise he cannot continue long in business. One must include all the essential nutrients in order to obtain a profitable rate of growth or egg production. Frequently, however, a full grain bin means careless or indifferent feeding because no attempt is made to balance this ration properly. Grain in some form may comprise 75% to 90% of a well-balanced poultry ration. This can and should lead to low-cost, efficient production. Poultry production in Manitoba centres largely on farm where ample supplies of grain are grown.
