Introduction
A three-phase growout process is commonly used in the commercial production of hybrid striped bass in earthen ponds. Phase I fingerlings, 2.2 to 3.3 lb/1000, are stocked into phase II ponds at a density of approximately 12,000/acre. Harvest of fish (2.2 to 4.5/lb) from phase II ponds is followed by size grading that precedes stocking into ponds (3,500/acre) for the final growout phase. Size...

In modern poultry nutrition, traditional fibre sources are associated with some negative attributes such as energy dilution of the diet and mycotoxin contamination and are usually not included during linear formulation. However, fibre is also suggested to have a positive effect on the intestinal microflora and the intestinal health including for poultry. While some nutritionists believe that crude fibre is an integral part of the poultry diet, others argue that...

The use of Expanders on Solvent Extraction Plants has been implemented for several years with a high degree of success. Properly cooked and flaked oilseeds are feed into the Expander in presence of controlled temperature, moisture and residence time in order to produce collets, increasing porosity of the surface which improves the solvent (hexane) percolation into the extractor and subsequently the amount of solvent used per ton of seed is being reduced. This reduction allows to use less...

1. Introduction Primarily for the provision of energy density, grain sorghum is quite frequently included in rations for pigs, poultry and feed-lot cattle. However, in a recent meeting held by the Australian Feed Grain Partnership in December 2012, nutritionists from the three industries expressed concern about the efficiency of energy utilisation in animals offered sorghum-based diets. Essentially, the energy provided...

EFSA’s Scientific Opinion 1 on Ethoxyquin as a Feed Additive was published in November 2015, when the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) could not conclude on the safety of the feed additive for target animals, for the consumers and for the environment due to a lack of data.
Among the items discussed, the EFSA could not conclude whether ethoxyquin quinone imine (an ethoxyquin metabolite) would potentially pose a...

1. Factorially designed experiments versus response surface methodology. A conventional experimental approach investigates the effects of one independent variable while keeping all other variables constant. This approach faces two challenges (i) it is only valid when the underlying principles linking cause and effect are known with some certainty; (ii) variables...

This study says that the bird consumes 3200 grams of weight to get to the 1500 conversion rate of 50%, although the typical mixture. But this is a loss of farms in Jordan. Is there a feed mixture check conversion of 60% or more even underestimate the losses? ...

Nutriad has demonstrated the use of Quorum Sensing (QS) as a tool in the development of two new feed additives: one for broiler production and one for aquaculture. QS Is a form of bacterial communication that is critical to bacterial virulence. By investigating the ability of several highly bioactive compounds to inhibit QS, Nutriad was able to select a combination of components that, in in vivo models, had a positive effect on the viability of...

There are many mold inhibitor brands in the feed additives market which claim to work better than all others. However, not all of them are as efficient as suppliers might claim. What should you look for when selecting a product ?
A common recommendation in the market is to include a dosage rate of 1 Kg/Mt. However, the various products available may contain different concentrations of the active ingredient, like for example...

In today's efficient conscious world, we save on anything and everything including communication. One of these is abbreviations. Recently I stumbled across one, which I called WAAW! Translation? War Against Amino Wastages! Amino wastages are unnecessary biological losses of amino acids, especially critical ones like methionine, lysine and threonine. In this war the call is to adopt a zero waste policy, doing this will recover more cost as amino acids are among the most...

Over the past few years, the dairy industry has made it a priority to feed higher forage diets with a correct balance of amino acids and an accurate ratio of lysine to methionine. With this strategy, there also has been more attention on the amount of undegradeable protein (RUP) being fed.
“We are feeding more high forage diets than we ever had in the past,” said Gene Goenner, territory product representative for Alltech Wisconsin. “With this feeding...

I. INTRODUCTION Rapid assessment of the quality of feed ingredients is now crucial for the financial success of intensive livestock producers. A great deal is known about the nutrient requirements, factors determining feed intake and the negative impacts of anti-nutritional factors for all intensively reared livestock including poultry. Diets formulated for optimum performance and profitability need to meet, but not...

Ingredients for food and feed products perform many functions, but above all, they must serve as sources of essential nutrients. Even though an ingredient may be used because it adds a certain color to a product, or because it helps to physically bind other ingredients together, food and feed products are ultimately vehicles for performance through nutrition. Nutrient quality is made up of two main measures of any ingredient – the total amount of an...
