Feed formulation

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...

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...
