THE FEEDING VALUE POTENTIAL OF POTATO VINES

Ensiling of Potato Vines

Potato vines are a potential feed for cattle if the vines can be preserved. The objectives of this study were primarily to study alternative methods to preserve potato vines by ensiling and determine the effects of soil contamination on ensiling. In experiment 1, vines from four potato varieties were harvested individually with a flail chopper set at three heights to vary soil contamination. Th...

Short communication A note on a comparison of the feeding value of sweet potato vines and lucerne meal for broiler chickens

The chemical composition of sun-dried sweet potato vines (SPV) and lucerne meal showed high levels (g/kg DM) of neutral detergent ®bre, ash and protein of 364 and 352, 178 and 100, and 191 and 182, respectively. Amino acid analysis showed modest levels of lysine, threonine and the sulfur amino acids in both meals but concentrations of these amino acids were generally higher in lucerne meal than...

ارزش در معرض ریسک یکی از مهمترین معیارهای اندازه گیری ریسک در بنگاه های اقتصادی می باشد. برآورد دقیق ارزش در معرض ریسک موضوع بسیارمهمی می باشد و انحراف از آن می تواند موجب ورشکستگی و یا عدم تخصیص بهینه منابع یک بنگاه گردد. هدف اصلی این مطالعه بررسی کارایی روش copula-garch شرطی در برآورد ارزش در معرض ریسک پرتفویی متشکل از دو سهام می باشد و ارزش در معرض ریسک بدست آمده با روشهای سنتی برآورد ارزش د...

Science amongst the vines

Introduction classically, cell signalling has been viewed in terms of linear pathways that lead from external or internal stimuli to cellular effectors. But this simple view developed more as a means to visualize and to understand the individual components of these complex systems, rather than to reflect reality. it is now clear that, in most cases, cell signalling is much more complex and invo...
