In this episode of The Poultry Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast, Dr. Milan Sharma from Cornell University shares research on nutritional interventions to improve egg production in laying hens challenged with coccidiosis. He also discusses new findings on grape pomace as a potential bioactive feed ingredient for broilers. Learn how alternative feed sources could shape the future of poultry health and how supplementation can support egg production and gut health under disease pressure. Listen now on all major platforms!

"The most promising result we saw in improving egg production was with L-arginine and vitamin D3 and E in the disease model."

Meet the guest: Dr. Milan Sharma earned his M.S. from Mississippi State University and Ph.D. in Poultry Science from the University of Georgia. Now a Postdoctoral Associate at Cornell University, his work focuses on poultry gut health, disease models, and nutritional strategies in both layers and broilers.
