The main goal of the center is to improve the educational process, provide high-quality training for future specialists, and retrain existing professionals in the field of feed production. Students will have the opportunity to observe and study the entire cycle of feed, additives, livestock, and crop production analysis.
The center includes the laboratory "Feed and Livestock Product Analysis," a room for producing compound feeds, a hall for breeding broiler chickens, a room for laying hens, and a laboratory with fistulas for poultry.
The laboratories are equipped with modern high-tech devices that allow controlling the microclimate and creating conditions close to real production in poultry farming.
"The uniqueness of our research center lies in the fact that students will be able to acquire practical skills and competencies in the analysis of feeds, products of exchange of agricultural animals and poultry. They will be able to develop balanced compound feed recipes for various types of animals, participate in the production of experimental batches of compound feed, and conduct their testing on the livestock of experimental objects," said Sergey Nikolaev, head of the nutrigenomics center for agricultural animals and poultry of Volgograd State Agricultural University.
Recipes for compound feeds and additives based on the collected data in the laboratories will be developed at the center. Safety tests will be conducted in the fistula laboratory using laying hens and broiler chickens, their numbers are 400 and 700 heads, respectively.
Research at the center will be carried out in cooperation with leading Russian companies such as MegaMix Group, Cherkizovo Group, Agrofirm Vostok, and others.
