A meta-analysis was conducted (i) to evaluate broiler response to partial or total substitution of corn by sorghum and millet and (ii) to determine the effect of soybean meal replacement by cottonseed meal in broiler diet. The database included 190 treatments from 29 experiments published from 1990 to 2013. Bird responses to an experimental diet were calculated relative to the control (Experime...

The efficacy of wetting sun-dried cassava tuber meal as a method reducing its hydrocyanide (HCN) content and improving nutritive value for broilers was investigated. Cassava tubers were peeled, chopped into pieces, sun dried then milled. Part the soaked in water at rate 5 parts to 4 meal, thinly spread on floor hours taken out by side tarred road again. raw (RCTM), (SCTM) wetted (WSCTM) analyse...

Fly larvae may provide an effective method to mitigate two large and growing global concerns: the use of fish meal derived from capture fisheries in aquaculture diets and manure management in livestock and poultry facilities. A 9-wk feed trial was conducted to determine whether fly larvae could be used as a partial fish meal and fish oil replacement in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, diets....

Inedible egg product was evaluated as a replacement for soybean meal and soybean oil in diets fed to weanling pigs. Increasing egg product concentrations of 0, 3, 6, and 9% linearly decreased average daily gain and gain:feed ratio, but not average daily feed intake.

BACKGROUND Obesity is a major public health problem in many poor countries where micronutrient deficiencies are prevalent. A partial meal replacement may be an effective strategy to decrease obesity and increase micronutrient intake in such populations. The objective was to evaluate the efficacy of a partial meal replacement with and without inulin on weight reduction, blood lipids and micronut...
