The experience of continuous intensification of animal husbandry accumulated by modern science confirms the need for further improvement of feeding schemes for young and adult cows. In this regard, it is of great importance to continue to optimize the enrichment of their diets with complexes of special feed additives. The systematic consumption of balanced feed additives by young animals largely compensates for the lack of plastic and regulatory substances in their body and stimulates the course of all physiological functions and biochemical processes. The inclusion of the feed additive “Bacitox” into the diet of growing heifers made it possible to effectively increase the energy nutritional value and minimize the risk of ketosis in animals. We can say that the use of this additive can increase the average daily gain in live weight in growing heifers with a decrease in the level of feed costs. The use of “Bacitox ” stimulates their growth in growth energy. In the heifers of the control group, who did not receive this feed additive, the main indicators taken into account were in a less functionally advantageous state. This indicated a lesser intensity of their viability and productivity, thereby demonstrating the undoubted advantages of using the feed additive “Bacitox” in young cattle.
