Botai FORCA® Feed Grade Calcium Formate Cafo For Animal Nutrition and Growth Promotion

FORCA® Feed Grade Calcium Formate is a high-efficiency feed additive with the dual functions of calcium supplementation and intestinal tract regulation (acidification, antibacterial, improving nutrient absorption). Thanks to its good water solubility, high calcium content and non-irritating characteristics, it is widely used in the breeding of poultry, ruminants, aquatic products and some special breeding animals.

Key Benefits:

Balances stomach pH and improves animal appetite

Reduces diarrhea and supports smoother weaning transition

Enhances feed conversion efficiency and promotes growth

Prevents mold and suppresses microbial activity in feed

Supplies bioavailable calcium easily absorbed by the body

Stable in premix — does not react with vitamins or trace elements
