DL-Methionine industry has been developing for several decades in China. Its unique nutritive value makes its indispensability in poultry and live stock industry. Now i want to talk about the importance of Methionine in chicken cultivation and other livestock feeding.
DL-Methionine is an essential amino acid in poultry feed for livestock, especially for egg-laying hens, methionine is the first limiting Amino acid;Other amino acids are all nothing if the quantity of Methionine is not...

INTRODUCTION Temperature is the most important environmental factor in animal production and directly affects animal responses. Domestic birds are homeotherm animals and therefore must expend energy to maintain body temperature, in order to have adequate biochemical, physiological and behavioral responses (Al-Saffar, 2002). At high temperatures, the feather coverage is one of the factors that impair dissipation of the...

Introduction Poultry meat being a high quality animal protein source plays significant role in maintaining the health and nutrition of the people (Shahzad et al ., 2011). Along with broilers, 35.4 million spent birds (27.4 million layers and 8.0 million breeders) are also being used at the end of egg production cycle contributing more than 46,000 metric tones of poultry meat per annum in Pakistan (Anonymous, 2009; Mahmud et al .,...

There are multiple approaches a swine nutritionist can take in diet formulation: maximize performance, minimize cost, or maximize profit. Within each of these approaches, there are suboptions to decide from: Growth performance basis Maximize average daily gain (ADG) Minimize feed efficiency (F/G) Cost reduction basis Minimize cost per kg of diet Minimize feed cost per kg of...

Introduction In order to lower feed costs, crystalline AA are used routinely in swine diets to replace a portion of the soybean meal. The AA that are currently available to add to swine diets include lysine, threonine, methionine, tryptophan, and valine. The increased availability of crystalline AA sources has created the opportunity to formulate grain-based diets to the fifth or sixth limiting AA. If this can be accomplished without negatively affecting pig growth performance,...

Hi,
I formulated a broiler feed and there is 20.78% protein content in it.
The ingredients are as follows;
Corn 11.5%
Millet 5%
Wheat 8.25%
Flaxseed Cake 7.5%
Canola Cake 10%
Sesame Cake 7.5%
Calcium Carbonate 0.125%
DCP 0.125%
Amino Acids 50 grams per 100 kg (Choline Chloride, DL-Mehtionine, L-Lysine)
The Analysis report is as follows;
Moisture 9.05%
Crude Protein 20.78%
Ether extract 6.91%
Crude Fiber 4.24%
Crude Ash 6.62%
The bird is not putting up weight. Please guide...

Introduction India has a very large population of livestock both of productive and unproductive animals. Ruminants are mostly fed on low-quality roughages, which are poor in protein, energy, minerals, and vitamin contents. Addition of cereal and leguminous fodder in ruminant diets can improve the utilization of low-quality roughages mainly through the supply of N to rumen microbes. The ruminants can make efficient use of mill by-products, crop residues, and other...

Background After pigs are weaned from their dams, morphological and functional changes occur in their small intestine. Pluske et al. [1] reported decreased villi height and increased crypt dept. Because newly-weaned pigs are transitioned from milk to dry feed, the pig’s intestinal tract is unable to fully digest and absorb the more complex plant-based macronutrients in the feed. Various researchers [2,3] have reported that this accumulation of undigested and unabsorbed...

Introduction. The substitution of corn to sorghum, in addition to a lower price, has greater resistance to drought, which favors its cultivation in various regions with low rainfall (Fialho; Barbosa, 1997). Although rustic, sorghum loses to be less productive and the carotenoid deficiency in maize, an effect that may be corrected by inclusion of pigments in the diets of poultry (Oliveira et al., 2008). The aim of this study was to evaluate the...

Good day. Sticking exclusively to the processing/treatment, I would like to specify some aspects to improve the use of fiber in pigs: - It is important to quantify the particle size of the most relevant grains, such as grasses: maize, sorghum and legumes: Soy, for example. The studies conclude that particles of maize grain and GF sorghum with respect to grains> 1,000 μm. In the case of Soy, it has been shown that between 600 and 700 μm is the recommended range in most diets for...

Introduction Feed pelleting can be defined as conversion of finely ground mash feed into dense, free flowing pellets or capsules, in a process involves steam injection (moisture & heat) and mechanical pressure. There are several advantages for feeding broilers on pelleted rather than mash feed. The main advantage is the improved bird performance (improved feed intake, weight gain and...

A new study about the nutritive characteristics of canola meal from Canadian processing facilities has been published recently in the Animal Feed Science and Technology magazine (Adewole et al, 2016). The authors evaluated samples of canola meal collected from eleven canola processing facilities in Canada over 4 successive years (2011–2014). Overall, the contents of various components of canola meal in percentage of dry matter (DM) basis were:
crude protein: 41.7% DM...

In this industry, we talk about protein a lot. This is because it helps evaluate the value of an ingredient or diet. The type of protein we are talking about though is “crude protein”, which is a routine chemical measure that’s been around since the 1800’s. ...

INTRODUCTION Acidulated soapstock is a fat source produced by the acidification of residues produced during the refining of vegetal oil for human consumption. Several types of soapstock have been used in broiler feeding, and are composed either of a unique source or blends of different fats. Soapstocks have high free fatty acid content. Acidulated Soybean Soapstock (ASS), for example, is composed by around 70% free fatty acids compared to less than 1% in soybean oil (Lipstein...
