Venworld Connect Layer Meet: Focus on Productivity Improvement and Egg Quality Enhancement at Badami, Karnataka

As part of “Venworld Connect” initiative, Venkateshwara B.V. Biocorp Pvt. Ltd. successfully conducted an impactful technical meeting on 10th April 2026 at Badami, Bagalkot, Karnataka.

The event witnessed strong participation from poultry farmers, integrators, and industry stakeholders, reflecting  a  growing shift toward scientific nutrition and performance-oriented management practices. Designed to benefit layer farmers, the meeting focused on delivering practical, field- relevant knowledge backed by scientific advancements.

During the inaugural session, Mr. Lokesh R. D. (AGM – South) and Mr. M. Babu (Zonal Manager) addressed   the   gathering, emphasizing the critical role of nutrition in achieving consistent and efficient poultry performance. They reiterated Venworld’s commitment to supporting farmers and industry partners through transparent, innovative and science- driven solutions tailored to the evolving needs of the poultry sector.

Enhancing Performance through Precision Nutrition

Dr. Sunil Nadgauda (DGM – Technical, VBVBC) led the technical session, sharing valuable insights into modern poultry nutrition. He emphasized that precision nutrition is essential for achieving optimal performance in today’s long -laying birds.

He explained that targeted nutrition directly impacts key performance indicators such as Feed Efficiency (feed per egg), Egg production and Liveability. Achieving consistent results depends on efficient nutrient utilization at the bird level and maintaining the right balance of energy and other nutrients in feed formulations. The session also covered strategies to sustain egg production and improve egg quality throughout the laying period. Discussions emphasized the importance of balanced nutrition and gut health,

particularly during the later stages of the laying cycle when maintaining productivity becomes more challenging. Special focus was given to achieving uniform egg size and consistent production, which are key indicators of efficient layer management. Dr. Nadgauda highlighted that improved gut health enhances nutrient absorption, directly influencing egg quality parameters such as shell strength, albumen quality, eggshell breakage etc. He also stressed the importance of maintaining an optimal calcium-to-phosphorus (Ca:P) ratio across different production phases to support proper eggshell formation and minimize egg breakage.

Additionally, Dr. Sachin Kadam (Product Executive, VBVBC) elaborated on key nutritional strategies for layers, reinforcing the role of precise nutrient balance in sustaining production and improving egg quality.

Highlight: EGGXTRA 5% Composite Premix

A key highlight of the meeting was EGGXTRA 5% Composite Premix, a targeted nutritional solution developed specifically for commercial layers. 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.

The premix is thoughtfully designed to meet the nutritional requirements of layers across all production phases. It supports phase feeding, recognizing that birds have different nutritional needs during pre-lay, peak production, and late laying stages. By addressing these stage-specific requirements, the Eggxtra 5% composite premix helps maintain consistent productivity, egg quality and flock health throughout the laying cycle.

Additionally, the premix offers flexibility, allowing farmers to incorporate locally available raw materials, making it both practical and cost- effective. Furthermore, the VBVBC nutrition team showcased their expertise in developing customized, farm-specific feed formulations tailored to individual farmer requirements. This approach enables farmers to optimize feed efficiency, effectively manage input costs, and achieve improved economic returns without compromising performance.

Positive Response and Commitment to Excellence

The sessions received highly positive feedback from participating farmers, who appreciated the practical insights, field-oriented recommendations, and strong technical support provided by the Venworld team. The successful execution of the event was made possible through the dedicated efforts of Venworld’s sales and technical teams. Through such 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 Venworld remains a trusted partner in helping poultry farmers achieve improved performance, enhanced productivity and sustainable growth.
