Avicultura
En avicultura, la alimentación representa uno de los principales factores de coste, por lo que asegurar una ingestión estable y eficiente resulta fundamental para la productividad.
El perfil aromático característico de las aliáceas aporta uniformidad sensorial a la ración, favoreciendo el apetito y la regularidad del comportamiento alimentario, incluso en situaciones de estrés térmico, cambios de formulación o variaciones en las condiciones de manejo.
En aves de puesta, su uso se asocia con una mayor estabilidad en el ciclo productivo, manteniendo la persistencia de la puesta sin alterar el sabor ni el aroma del huevo o de la carne.
Además, la literatura científica ha documentado que los compuestos presentes en las aliáceas pueden aportar beneficios adicionales, como favorecer el confort digestivo, apoyar una utilización más eficiente del pienso y contribuir al mantenimiento del buen estado general del animal.
