Soybean meal replacement with cassava leaf: blood meal mix with or without enzyme in broiler diets

Replacing Conventionally Processed Soybean Meal with Extruded/Expelled Soybean Meal in Swine Diets

Energy Value of Cassava Products in Broiler Chicken Diets with or without Enzyme Supplementation.

This study investigated the metabolizable energy (ME) intake, net energy of production (NEp), heat production (HP), efficiencies of ME use for energy, lipid and protein retention as well as the performance of broiler chickens fed diets based on cassava chips or pellets with or without supplementation with an enzyme product containing xylanase, amylase, protease and phytase. The two products, ca...

Replacement of Soybean Meal in Channel Catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, Diets with Cottonseed Meal and Distiller’s Dried Grains with Solubles

Two pond experiments were conducted to evaluate cottonseed meal (CSM), distiller’s dried grains with solubles (DDGS), and supplemental lysine as replacements for soybean meal (SBM) in channel catfish diets. In Experiment 1, fish fed diets in which SBM was totally replaced with CSM gained similar weight as fish fed control diet, but fish fed CSM diet in Experiment 2 had 9.5% lower weight gain th...

Evaluation of Sesame Meal Replacement in Broiler Diets with Phytase and Probiotic Supplementation

1 Two trials were conducted to evaluate sesame seed meal (SSM) replacement of broiler diets ingredients. The 1 st trial included 5 major dietary treatments using 360 day old Ross commercial broilers: 1) Corn + soybean meal (SBM) "control diet"; 2) Corn + SSM; 3) Corn + [50% SBM + 50% SSM]; 4) Corn + [25% SBM + 75% SSM]; and 5) Corn + [75% SBM + 25% SSM]. Each treatment was then divided into 4 s...

Environmental impact of replacing soybean meal with rapeseed meal in diets of finishing pigs.

The major impact of the livestock sector on the environment may be reduced by feeding agricultural co-products to animals. Since the last decade, co-products from biodiesel production, such as rapeseed meal (RSM), became increasingly available in Europe. Consequently, an increase in RSM content in livestock diets was observed at the expense of soybean meal (SBM) content. Cultivation of SBM is a...
