Poultry feed cost savings with alternative feed ingredients

Optimizing Dietary Nutrient Density for Improved Economic Returns

Published: January 18, 2024
Summary
I. INTRODUCTION Nutrient requirements are established by means of dose-response studies. Data is subjected to appropriate regression analysis and the level needed to maximise a given response (body weight gain, feed efficiency, carcass yield, etc.,) is defined as ‘requirement’. The estimates are compiled as ‘tables of nutrient requirement’ e.g., NRC, CVB, Brazilian Tables...
