In today’s pursuit of healthy livestock farming and sustainable development, a nature-inspired solution is quietly transforming the face of animal husbandry—feed-grade oregano oil. This essence, extracted from the natural oregano plant, not only embodies nature’s wisdom but also represents a revolutionary product that can replace antibiotics and significantly enhance animal health.


In today’s pursuit of healthy farming and sustainable development, a nature-inspired solution is quietly transforming the face of animal husbandry— Feed-grade oregano oil This essence, extracted from the natural oregano plant, not only embodies nature’s wisdom but also represents a revolutionary product that can replace antibiotics and enhance animal health.

The Power of Nature, Scientifically Verified

Oregano oil is rich in natural active compounds, among which carvacrol and thymol exhibit outstanding antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. Scientific studies have shown that oregano oil can effectively inhibit a variety of common pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus aureus, thereby establishing a natural protective barrier for livestock and poultry.

Four Core Advantages: Reshaping Livestock Farming Efficiency

1. Replace antibiotics and embrace antibiotic-free farming.
Against the backdrop of global restrictions on antibiotic use, oregano oil has emerged as an ideal natural alternative. Not only does it effectively prevent diseases, but it also helps avoid antibiotic residues and the emergence of antibiotic resistance—aligning with today’s highest standards for food safety.

2. Enhance digestion and absorption, reduce feed costs
Oregano oil can stimulate the secretion of digestive enzymes, improve intestinal health, and enhance feed conversion rates. Practice has shown that feeding animals with oregano oil-added diets allows them to better absorb nutrients, reduces feed waste, and directly lowers farming costs.

3. Boost immunity and reduce the incidence of disease.
By modulating the animal immune system, oregano oil helps livestock and poultry build stronger intrinsic defenses, reducing morbidity and mortality rates, lowering medical expenses, and improving overall farming efficiency.

4. Improve the aquaculture environment and promote ecological balance.
The addition of oregano oil can reduce the population of harmful bacteria in animals, thereby lowering fecal ammonia emissions, improving indoor air quality, and creating a healthier and more comfortable farming environment.

Feed-grade oregano oil is suitable for a variety of livestock and poultry, including chickens, pigs, cattle, and sheep. It’s easy to add to feed without requiring any changes to existing feed formulations or feeding procedures. According to feedback from farmers, positive changes such as improved coat color and increased appetite can be observed within one week of use, and long-term use delivers significant economic benefits.

Latest experiment

Broiler Glucose Oxidase Experiment

One-day-old Ross 308 broiler chickens were selected, with a total of 4 chicken houses, each housing 11,000 birds. The birds were randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group, with 2 chicken houses assigned to each group. The control group was fed a commercial diet supplemented with Changle (allicin and oregano phenol) at 100 mL/ton, while the treatment group was fed a commercial diet supplemented with glucose oxidase at 100 U/L. During the trial period, birds had free access to feed and water. The trial lasted for 42 days. The experimental diet consisted of corn, soybean meal, wheat, cottonseed meal, DDGS, peanut meal, duck fat, and premixes, among other ingredients; nutritional parameters are shown in Table 1.

Lactic Acid Bacteria Experiment

Effect of Lactic Acid Bacteria on Broiler Diarrhea: A Raising Experiment Experimental Site: Jiyang Zheng* Animal Husbandry Farm Experiment Period: August 31, 2015 – September 4, 2015 Experimental Subjects: 30-day-old broilers Experimental Design: Control Group: Normal feeding + normal drinking water Experimental Group: Normal feeding + normal drinking water + lactic acid bacteria (liquid)

Piglet Fruit Milk Flavor Experiment

Piglet Fruit Milk Flavor Experiment

Twenty 28-day-old weaned piglets of the Duroc × Landrace × Large White crossbreed, with similar body weights and in good health, were selected for the trial. They were randomly divided into two treatment groups: a control group and a test group. The control group was fed a basal diet, while the test group was fed a basal diet supplemented with 600 g/t of fruit-milk flavoring. Each group consisted of five replicates, with two piglets per replicate. During the trial period, the pigs had free access to feed and water, and the trial lasted for 28 days.

The Impact of Tiannuokang as a Substitute for Colistin Sulfate on the Production Performance of Growing-Finishing Pigs and the Microbial Population in Their Feces

In this trial, 120 healthy, growing pigs of similar body condition, weighing 80 ± 10 kg, were randomly divided into a control group, an antibiotic group, and an essential oil group. The specific feeding design is shown in Table 1. Each group consisted of 4 replicates, with 10 pigs per replicate. The trial duration was 29 days. The experimental diet was formulated according to the nutritional requirements outlined in NRC (2012). During the trial, pigs had free access to feed and water, and were subjected to routine husbandry management and vaccination protocols. Body weights at the beginning and end of the trial, as well as feed intake, were recorded. At the end of the trial, fresh fecal samples were collected from each pig, placed into sterile 10 ml centrifuge tubes, and stored at -80℃.

Tian Yikang replaces chlortetracycline in the ROSS-308 trial.

This experiment employed a single-factor experimental design. A total of 6,000 Ross-308 broiler chickens, aged 1 day and with roughly similar body weights and good health conditions, were randomly selected and divided into three treatment groups, with five replicates per group, each replicate consisting of 400 chickens. The control group was fed a basal diet based on corn and soybean meal. The experimental group 1, the antibiotic group, had 50 g/t of a 15% chlortetracycline premix added to the basal diet. The experimental group 2, the Tianyikang addition group, had 1,500 g/t of Tianyikang added to the basal diet. The entire experiment lasted for 42 days.
