Abstract: The use of biological feed as an antibiotic alternative has gained a lot of attention in light of the antibiotic ban in animal feed. Biological feed offers benefits including improving feed quality, enhancing animal production performance, boosting animal immunity and regulating animal gut microbiota, exhibiting an increasing market acceptance. This paper introduced the definition and classification of biological feed, summarized the research progress on the application of biological feed in cattle, sheep and pig production taking fermented feed and bacterium and enzyme synergistic fermented feed as examples, analyzed the problems in the current application of biological feed, and put forward relevant suggestions, in hoping to provide references for the development and application of biological feed.

Key words: biological feed, antibiotic, animal farming, fermented feed, synergism of bacterium and enzyme
