Carbon and Nitrogen Budget of Commercial Cage-Grown Broilers
Understanding the fate of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) inputs and outputs from commercial broiler operations is important for increasing the flock C and N efficiency and reducing gaseous emissions. This study was conducted to determine the C and N balance for broiler chickens grown in cages from day old to 42-d market age. Concentrations of ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) and ...

The digestion method using a small proportion of a strong oxidizing agent perchloric acid seems to have been taken from a ’continuous flow method’, which was not designed for discrete digestion and analysis. There is considerable evidence that satisfactory digestion ofeven tMrly refractory substances can be achieved without the use of perchloric acid (1) and it is now usually recommended that p...
متن کاملNitrogen emissions from broilers measured by mass balance over eighteen consecutive flocks.
Emission of nitrogen in the form of ammonia from poultry rearing facilities has been an important topic for the poultry industry because of concerns regarding the effects of ammonia on the environment. Sound scientific data is needed to accurately estimate air emissions from poultry operations. Many factors, such as season of the year, ambient temperature and humidity, bird health, and manageme...

متن کاملEnvironmental Nitrogen Losses from Commercial Crop Production Systems in the Suwannee River Basin of Florida
The springs and the Suwannee river of northern Florida in Middle Suwanee River Basin (MSRB) are among several examples in this planet that have shown a temporal trend of increasing nitrate concentration primarily due to the impacts of non-point sources such as agriculture. The rate of nitrate increase in the river as documented by Ham and Hatzell (1996) was 0.02 mg N L-1 y-1. Best management pr...
