Feed formulation
Welcome to the page about Feed formulation of Engormix; a source of knowledge on Feed formulation.
INTRODUCTION In many parts of the world, especially the arid and semi-arid regions, with scarce animal feed resources, low quality non-conventional feeds are frequently fed to livestock (Mahgoaub et al. , 2008). High salinity of irrigation water and agricultural soil is a major impediment to the cultivation of traditional fodder crops as well as high costs of transporting feed to the Sinai Peninsula. Reducing feed costs and/or increase feed utilization may be an...

Recently, Schäfers et al. (2017) published his study determining the effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and vitamin E as well as their interaction on biochemical and hematological variables and on leukocyte populations and their functionality.
They assigned 59 German Holstein cows between the 2nd and 9th lactation to 4 dietary groups in a 2 × 2 factorial design with the factors CLA and vitamin E.
In conclusion, the impairment of immune function caused by calving was more severe in...

1. Introduction In Egypt, small ruminants are essential resources of cash revenue, savings nutrition (meat and milk), wool, compost and employment of many people particularly in populations with a low income and where poverty prevails. Improving the sustainability of animal production systems in Sinai by increasing the availableness of fodder resources through inducting of salt-tolerant fodder crops is considered one of the means to...

INTRODUCTION The shortage of animal feeds in Egypt necessitates that intense research efforts should be directed towards exploring the possibility of using new-non conventional sources or agricultural by-products as animal feed and improving values (Shoukry et al ., 1985) cereal crops generate large amount of organic agricultural waste in many countries. Rice plant ( Oryza sativa L.), is one of...

INTRODUCTION Globally, different energy and amino acid levels are used in different regions, although it is unknown the magnitude by which these dietary nutrients are influenced by feed cost or biological nutrient requirements. Furthermore, a study that explains nutrient trends, body composition and nutrient efficiency in one systemized approach over time as a way to gain insight into the future should shed light on biological mechanisms in modern broiler chickens. As...

1- INTRODUCTION In Egypt, there is a gap between the available feedstuffs and farm animal requirements. This was estimated as a shortage of 3.1 million tons of TDN per year. Nontraditional by-products must search in order to decrease the relay on traditional resources to fill the gap and to decrease feeding costs (Zaza, G.H., 2005). Feed shortage will be increased in the next decades due to the expected global climate changes which will lead to increase desertification in many...

1. Introduction: Agro-industrial by-products are available in Egypt in large quantities averaged (26 million ton) (Agriculture Economic Research Institute, 2000), some of such materials are characterized by high nutritive value (Youssef et al., 2006). So it can be used as supplementary feed ingredients in animal rations (Mohamed and El-Saidy, 2003). Date stone is one of this agro-industrial by- products used as feed ingredients under desert conditions which are available in...

Introduction Phosphorus is an important nutrient for laying hens, e.g. for bone development and egg formation, but also plays an important role in environmental contamination. However, research on the phosphorus requirement of laying hens is dated (Van der Klis and Blok, 1997). The modern laying hen with a high egg number and laying persistency probably has a different phosphorus requirement than birds from 20 to 30 years ago. Furthermore, age and level of physical activity,...

Feeding of livestock is a scientific task to make all the nutrients available for maintenance, production, growth and reproduction. The right selection of ingredients for the optimum level of animal response is the least cost ration. The feeding of imbalanced ration would not only enhance the cost of production but also affect the health of the animal. It is a non contested fact that animal response is more crucial than ration computing. Therefore, the digestibility of nutrients in the...

Introduction The projected doubling of the human population by 2060 will require a 100% increase in food production coming from plants and animals with most of this increase coming from new technology and greater efficiency [1]. In animal production agriculture, feed is the highest input cost (50 to 70% of total) in raising an animal to market weight and feed costs can spike as observed during the severe drought in the US in 2012 [2]. Great strides have been made in animal...

ABSTRACT
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of a low-Ca diet, followed by a high-Ca diet in combination with feeding of anionic salts and/or vitamin D 3 on Ca and acid-base homeostasis of finishing steers. Twenty Hereford steers (448 _ 26 kg) were individually penned and fed at 0800 and 1600 with a ration consisting of 90% barley grain-based...

ABSTRACT
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of supplementing high levels of vitamin D 3 to steers fed barley-grain-based finishing diets on Ca metabolism. Fifteen Hereford steers (607 ± 12 kg) were individually penned and fed at 0800 and 1600 with a ration consisting of 90% barley-grain-based concentrate and 10% barley silage [dry matter...

Introduction Legislatures such as The Renewable Fuel Standard in the U.S.A. and The Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation in the U.K. have driven massive increases in bioethanol production from cereal (first-generation bioethanol). In 2011, the estimated global production was around 113 billion liters (OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2012-2021). The rising volume of bioethanol production also results in increasing quantities of the current coproduct, distiller’s dried grains...
