INTRODUCTION Feed (ration) formulation is a technique by which different feed ingredients are combined to provide required nutrient to animals for a period of time, usually 24 hours, at different stages of production. A ration should supply all essential nutrients and energy to maintain vital physiological functions of growth, reproduction and health of animals. Ration should be palatable, digestible with permissible level of anti-nutritional...

Introduction The global livestock industry is increasingly pivoting toward sustainable and cost-effective nutritional strategies to meet the rising demand for animal protein [1]. In this context, rabbit production (cuniculture) has emerged as a vital sector due to the high fecundity, short generation interval, and efficient feed conversion of rabbits [2, 3]. However, the reproductive efficiency of breeding bucks remains a cornerstone of successful commercial rabbitries [3]. Male...

Abstract The effect of addition of sunflower hulls (SFH) as an insoluble fiber on performance and some physiological parameters of broiler chickens fed diets containing full-fat canola seed (CS) was evaluated from 11 to 42 d of age in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. A total of 240 one-day-old broilers (Ross 308) were randomly devoted to 4 treatments, with 6 replicates each and 10 birds per replicate. Treatments were canola oil source (CS, and...

1. Introduction Corn plays an important role in broiler diets due to its high energy contribution, which makes it an essential ingredient for optimal development and productive performance of broilers [1]. On average, corn provides around 3378 kcal/kg ME [2], which represents around 65% of the energy content of a typical broiler diet [3]. Most of the energy value of corn comes from its high amount of digestible starch. Additionally, corn is rich in essential amino acids such as...

Introduction Fish or any animal needs an adequate balanced diet that contains all the required necessary essential nutrients to have optimal growth. These nutrient requirements vary from species to species, sex, age, the environment where it lives, different stages of larval development, and the health status of the species. A minimum of 35 to 45 nutrients is required for marine fish. To have the best optimal growth and reduce pollution in the environment a thorough knowledge of...

DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM Soybean meal is the most commonly used oilseed meal in United States poultry diets. Soybeans are primarily grown for their oil content and a by-product of the oil extraction process is defatted soybean meal. Soybean meal is often referred to as the “Gold Standard” of protein ingredients used for poultry because it contains a high amount of protein, e.g., 44 to 49 % CP, and an amino acid profile that is complementary to that of corn and other cereal...

Introduction Aquaculture has become a vital component of global food production, contributing significantly to food security, nutritional requirements, and economic development [4]. In India, aquaculture plays a crucial role in the rural economy, with Indian major carps, particularly Rohu (Labeo rohita) and Catla (Catla catla), being predominant species in freshwater fish culture. Efficient feed management practices are essential for sustainable aquaculture, as feed constitutes...

Introduction The first phase of lactation remains the most nutritionally stressful period for a dairy cow. Milk yield rises sharply while dry matter intake (DMI) increases more slowly, creating a temporary negative energy and protein balance. Many farmers respond by adding more protein, assuming it will automatically boost milk. Yet excessive protein rarely improves yield and often leads to higher nitrogen waste, liver stress, and feed costs. This article revisits the...

Effective poultry nutrition depends heavily on the quality of protein sources, with soybean meal (SBM) serving as the industry benchmark. This technical analysis, based on research and protocols established by Mahmoud Abdallah and the technical team at Advance Support , highlights the critical balance required during the thermal processing of soybeans to neutralize anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) without compromising...
