ABSTRACT Nutritive values of major ingredients vary considerably not only among different feedstuff but also the same ingredients of different batches. Rapid screening nutritive value has been a great challenge in the feed industry. This study assessed 4 soybean meal (SBM) samples using both NIRS technique and broiler experiments. In broiler Test 1, 4 SBM samples were assigned the same "book value", so that the four dietary...

With today's increasing emphasis on efficient use of energy and its effect on the environment, feed mill managers must take an objective look at their process systems in order to maximize output against power consumption. The major sources of power consumption are clearly the grinding and pelleting processes. Without any doubt, savings can be made in the pelleting system, but this article will only examine the grinding process. When looking at efficiency, it is important to...

Agricultural production and the feed industry continue to suffer from losses caused by contamination with pathogenic bacteria and the associated consequences in livestock, such as reduced weight gain and increased mortality. Under such conditions, acidifiers consisting of organic acids or their salts offer a promising strategy to maintain feed quality and inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria inside the animal. The use of acidifiers has long been applied to both feed and food, where they...

The objectives of feed supplementation are to manufacture medicated feeds whose concentration in active ingredients fulfils with two criteria: conformity and homogeneity. Conformity is defined as consistency between active ingredient theoretical and actual mean concentrations in feed. Conformity can be impacted by degradation of the active ingredient during feed manufacture or during storage. Homogeneity is defined as the acceptable range in...

The feed hygiene Regulation (EC) No 183/2005 presents a legal foundation for the production of safe feedstuffs. The regulation applies to primary production and puts the spotlight clearly on grain storage since grain is an important potential source of contamination in the food chain with the risk of exposure of consumers to the contaminants. The Regulation says that cereals operators must control hazards (mites, moulds, mycotoxins, …) with the potential...

Nutrient Behavior and Composition of Damaged Canola Seed It is the protein and oil content of whole canola seed that gives it value. Analysis shows protein content is less affected by frost or weathering in the whole seed but oil content varies more. The oil of oilseeds such as canola, like the starch of cereal grains, is the last major component to develop in the maturing process. Canola seed damaged by frost is prevented from...

EFSA's FEEDAP Panel has adopted an opinion on the consequences for consumers of the use of vitamin A in animal feed, and recommended revised maximum levels in feed intended for the main food producing animals. It also recommended regulating complementary feeds [1] , used in combination with other feed or forages, to avoid excessive levels of vitamin A as well as monitoring vitamin A in foods of concern such as liver, and providing suitable advice to help consumers avoid...
