Every bird’s potential begins in the gut. In modern poultry production, where margins are tight and pressures are constant, gut health is not just a biological function, it is the foundation of performance. From feed efficiency to resilience against stress, the gut is where success starts. But understanding what is happening inside the bird and acting on it has never been more complex.

That is where microbiome intelligence comes in. At Cargill Animal Nutrition & Health (ANH), we believe data should do more than sit in a report. It should drive decisions. Our Galleon platform piloted by our team of microbiome experts delivers understandable and valuable insights on microbiome dynamics. With the help of our Biostrong portfolio, we help poultry producers turn microbiome insights into practical strategies that deliver measurable results.

Why the gut matters more than ever

The poultry industry faces a perfect storm of challenges: rising global demand, shifting regulations, and increasing pressure to optimise feed costs while maintaining health and performance. Producers know that gut health influences everything from nutrient absorption to immune response, but the microbiome is a complex ecosystem. Without the right tools, it is hard to see what is really happening inside the bird.

Gut health is the starting point for flock performance. When the microbiome is balanced, birds digest feed efficiently, grow consistently, and stay resilient against stress events. When it is disrupted, performance suffers and so does profitability.

Biostrong powers

Staying ahead is essential. That is why we created Biostrong, our dedicated poultry brand within Cargill’s Micronutrition & Health Solutions (MHS) portfolio. Biostrong unites decades of expertise in poultry nutrition under one clear goal: helping producers stay one step ahead in health and performance.

Our targeted micronutrition solutionBiostrong Dual works all along the digestive tract to support nutrient absorption and influence positive microbiota dynamics, 2 pillars of gut health. By focusing on the interplay between nutrition and the microbiome, Biostrong Dual helps producers optimise productivity and build long-term resilience. Backed by Cargill’s global R&D and proven in the field, Biostrong Dual turns science into results on the farm, in the flock, and across the business.

Galleon turns complexity into clarity

If Biostrong is the engine inside the bird, Galleon is the navigation system guiding the way. This AI-powered platform analyses gut microbiota data and translates it into actionable recommendations for nutrition and farm management. With a proprietary database of more than 70,000 microbiota analyses across 25 countries, the Galleon platform identifies critical biomarkers associated with health, performance, and food safety risks and provides tailored strategies to advance poultry production.

Why does this matter? Because traditional linear models cannot capture the complexity of the microbiome. Galleon does. It helps producers adapt feeding strategies based on real microbiota insights, managing gut health proactively, and addressing performance and food safety challenges with precision.

In short, Galleon turns complexity into clarity. It gives producers the confidence to act, knowing their decisions are backed by science and data.
