nonruminAnt nutrition: The iMPacT OF Feed addiTives On The healTh and PerFOrMance OF swine and POulTry
Biomin BBSH 797, a Gen. nov. sp. nov. of the family Coriobateriaceae isolated from bovine rumen fluid, is able to specifically detoxify trichothecenes in the intestinal tract of animals. The live strain is able to produce enzymes that reduce the epoxide group of these mycotoxins, which results in the formation of non-toxic metabolites. The objective of this trial was to prove that the metabolit...
متن کاملSoybean as a Feed Ingredient for Livestock and Poultry
The need to meet animal protein demand of ever growing world population, currently at approximately 6.8 billion (US Census Bureau, 2010), is set to increase at an even greater rate as the economies of developing countries improve and their growing affluent populace alter their dietary habits.

Feed additives used to supplement dairy rations can increase daily feed cost from 2 to 65 per animal. The economic response (benefit to cost ratio) varies from $2.00 to $12.00 for each dollar invested in a specific additive. Knowledgeable dairy veterinarians must understand the role of each additive, when it will be beneficial, inclusion level, strategies and limitations associated with an addi...
متن کاملAssociation of mitochondrial function and feed efficiency in poultry and livestock species.
As grain prices have increased dramatically in the past year, understanding the fundamental genetic, cellular, and biochemical mechanisms responsible for feed efficiency (FE; g of gain/g of feed) or residual feed intake (RFI; an alternative feed efficiency trait that quantifies interanimal variation in DMI that is unexplained by differences in BW and growth rate) in livestock and poultry is ext...
متن کاملLocalising livestock protein feed production and the impact on land use and greenhouse gas emissions.
Livestock farmers in Sweden usually grow feed grains for livestock but import protein feed from outside Sweden. Aside from the economic implications, some environmental issues are associated with this practice. We used life cycle assessment to evaluate the impact of local protein feed production on land use and greenhouse gas emissions, compared with the use of imported protein feed, for pig me...
