Introduction Near record high feed, fuel, and fertilizer prices, and high inflation rates all have put increasing economic burden on beef producers. The increased cost of feeding cattle means that increasing feed efficiency is critical to feedlot production. Historically, feed costs represent about 70% of the total cost of production for feedlot operators and therefore, feed efficiency has 4 x greater economic return when compared to the same improvement in feedlot growth (Gibb and...

In scientific publications in the 1980s – 1990s you can find information about a spreading of mycotoxins. But since that time cultivars and agricultural technology have changed, methods of grain storage and grain processing have improved due to the overal progress. Between January 2009 and December 2011 Austrian researchers selected 7049 samples of grain on different continents. The samples were analyzed for the occurrence of aflatoxins (AFB), zearalenone (ZEN), deoxynivalenol (DON),...

Introduction Academia and industry have invested huge resources into defining both the nutrient composition of feedstuffs and nutrient requirements of meat and egg-type poultry. Both aspects are highly complex because of their dynamic nature. Nutrient availabilities depend on the genetics of each feedstuff, but also geographic region, weather, and growing conditions. These factors impact both the quantity of nutrients and the molecular structures from which those nutrients must...

Introduction Medicinal plants are a rich source of phytochemicals and natural compounds (alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, terpenoids, tannins and phenols) with marked therapeutic properties (Ruchika et al ., 2022; Roma-Marzio et al ., 2017). They are potential source of drugs and are traditionally used in the treatment of digestive disorders, measles, cold, cough, diarrhea, arthritis, skin disease, joint pain, hemorrhoids, fever, sore throat and sexually...

INTRODUCTION The use of soybean meal in poultry diets can be tested for antinutritional factors, which is easily identified with ureatic activity and protein solubility in KOH analysis. This research aimed to evaluate soybean meal quality measured by ureatic activity and KOH solubility in poultry feed mills. MATERIAL AND METHODS For this analysis, 283 samples were obtained from a broiler feed mill located in Goiás, Brazil. Soybean meal samples were...

We are presently going through a challenging period of high prices of raw materials and a limited availability of some of these materials. The use of less common raw materials that are readily available, and potentially less expensive, can be an alternative to traditional protein and energy sources and may help reduce the pressure on feed costs. However, new types of ingredients need extra attention to be paid to make sure they are suitable for feed processing, are free of contaminants,...

Introduction Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by some filamentous fungi that grow naturally in many commodities around the world [1,2]. In Brazil, contamination of substrates by mycotoxigenic fungi is rather common, since climatic conditions favor their development and the production of mycotoxins. These substances are chiefly produced by three fungal genera: Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium [3]. Of these, the genus Fusarium is of great importance for it...

I. INTRODUCTION Antibiotic growth promoters have been successfully utilized in the past to control gut dysbiosis (Dibner and Richards, 2005). However, poultry production is changing because of consumer and governmental pressure to reduce the use of antibiotics (Cervantes, 2015). Little or no attention is given by nutritionists to understanding the fibre composition in poultry diets and their role in gut health...

INTRODUCTION The feed conversion ratio (FCR) is, in addition to the cost of the feed, the most influential variable in the cost structure of poultry production 1,2 and consequently, drives the economic efficiency of poultry operations. As a result, the FCR represents an important response variable in nutrition experiments, irrespective of whether or not they are complex, as metabolism studies 3,4 , or as simple as the experiments that are usually conducted to...

Introduction Corn (Zea mays L.) is one of the most cultivated cereals around the world. It has a relevant role in economy and society due to its high nutritional value and productive potential [1,2]. Brazil is the third major producer of corn, after the United States and China [3]. Most Brazilian states are corn producers, but the largest volume of the cereal is harvested in the mid-west, the southeast and the south regions. Considering the 2018/2019 corn harvest, the leading...
