- Poultry: 0.5–1.5 kg/ton of feed
- Swine: 0.8–2.0 kg/ton of feed
- Aquaculture: 1.0–3.0 kg/ton of feed
- Note: Optimize dosage based on animal species, growth stage, and nutritional needs.
Precautions: Ensure thorough mixing to avoid uneven distribution.
Compatibility & Contraindications
- Amino Acids: Lysine, methionine, threonine, valine.
- Vitamins: B-complex vitamins (especially B6 for arginine metabolism), vitamins A, D, E.
- Minerals: Calcium carbonate, phosphates, selenium yeast (at recommended levels).
- Acidifiers: Organic acids (e.g., citric acid, fumaric acid).
- Antioxidants: Ethoxyquin, natural tocopherols.
- Alkaline Substances (e.g., sodium bicarbonate, excess limestone): May degrade arginine by raising pH and reducing absorption.
- Strong Oxidizers (e.g., hydrogen peroxide, potassium permanganate): Risk of oxidative breakdown.
- Hygroscopic Additives (e.g., choline chloride): Pre-mix with a dry carrier (e.g., wheat bran) to prevent moisture absorption.
- High Iron/Copper Levels: May chelate arginine, impairing bioavailability.
- Excess Dietary Lysine: High lysine-to-arginine ratios may antagonize arginine utilization.

FAQs
L-Arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid used as a feed-grade supplement to enhance animal diets. This product contains ≥98% pure L-Arginine in crystalline or powder form, supporting protein synthesis, immune function, and nitrogen metabolism in livestock and poultry.
Arginine is critical for young, stressed, or fast-growing animals. It improves growth performance, enhances wound healing, supports reproductive health (e.g., sperm production in males), and reduces ammonia emissions by optimizing nitrogen utilization.
Yes, it is safe when used as directed. Over-supplementation may disrupt amino acid balance or cause metabolic stress (e.g., hyperammonemia). Adhere strictly to recommended levels.
No—it works synergistically with lysine, methionine, and other amino acids. Balanced ratios are critical; never use arginine as a standalone supplement without professional guidance.
It should be stored in a clean, dry, well-ventilated area, protected from contaminants and direct sunlight. Avoid contact with toxic or harmful substances to maintain its quality.
L-Arginine is compatible with amino acids, vitamins, minerals, acidifiers, and antioxidants. However, avoid combining it with alkaline substances, strong oxidizers, hygroscopic additives (without a dry carrier), high iron/copper levels, or excess dietary lysine.
