Three experiments were conducted to evaluate lysine (Lys), threonine (Thr), methionine (Met), tryptophan (Trp), and nonessential N (+N) supplementation of all sorghum grain (S) diets on growth and carcass characteristics of 50- to 100-kg pigs. In Exp. 1, four replicate pens of four pigs each were fed: 1) sorghum-soybean meal positive control (S-SBM); 2) S + Lys + Thr + Met + Trp to equal the am...

Three experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of polyurethane coated urea on in vitro ruminal fermentation, ammonia release dynamics and lactating performance of Holstein dairy cows fed a steam-flaked corn-based diet. In Exp. 1, a dual-flow continuous culture was run to investigate the effect of polyurethane coated urea on nutrient digestibility, rumen fermentation parameters and ...

Soybeans is an important crop in the United States and are primarily used for animal feed, human food, and production of biofuels. Soybean meal (SBM) and other soy products contribute high-quality protein to diets fed to pigs because soy protein is rich in the limiting amino acids lysine, threonine, and tryptophan that are present in relatively low concentrations in the most commonly fed cereal...

Six mature wethers (BW 72 kg) with ruminal, duodenal, and ileal cannulas were fed a control (no added soybean meal [SBM]) diet or diets containing unheated SBM or SBM roasted at 165 degrees C for 75, 150, 180, or 210 min in a 6 x 6 Latin square experiment. Concentrations of indicators of heat exposure (ADIN, ADF, NDF) in SBM increased with increasing roasting time. Duodenal flows of total N, no...

A total of 1,827 pigs (L337 × 1050, PIC; initially 215.8 ± 2.5 lb) were used to evaluate the effects increasing soybean meal (SBM) in corn-DDGS-based diets on growth performance late finishing pigs. Pens blocked by BW and randomly assigned 1 5 dietary treatments with 14 replications per treatment. Experimental corn-based 25% DDGS. Soybean levels increased from 0 16% 4% increments replacing adde...

Three experiments were conducted to determine the effects of pelleting and extrusion of feeds on the utilization of phytate P by broilers. The first experiment investigated the effects of pelleting the whole corn-soybean meal (SBM) diet, the corn, or SBM separately on phytate P utilization. The P-deficient basal diet contained 0.5% total P and 0.2% phytate P. Steam pelleting the whole diet, the...

YILDIZ, E., 2015. Comparison of rations for dairy cows with soybean meal or with rapeseed meal in which the main source of protein is sunflower meal. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 21: 662–667 The aim of experiment is to check whether the inclusion of soybean meal in the diet will improve performance of dairy cows fed ration with sunflower meal as main protein source. This problem is important for East ...

The objective of this experiment was to determine the concentration and digestibility of crude protein (CP) and amino acid (AA) in meat meal (MM), and to compare these values with the respective values in soybean meal (SBM). Six barrows (initial body weight = 66.9±3.8 kg) surgically fitted with a T-cannula at the distal ileum were allotted to a replicated 3×3 balanced Latin square design with 3...

the aim of present experiment was to investigate the feeding value of wild pistachio leaf (khinjuk leaf, kl) for arabi sheep. the digestibility and fermentation of diets containing different amounts of khinjuk (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30%) were measured. then, the effect of presence of kl in the diet and its tannin content on the digestibility of alfalfa hay (alfa), wheat straw (ws) and soybea...

Soybean meal (SBM) is widely used in shrimp feed agro-industry as a fish (FM) replacement. However, high levels of SBM may compromise animal health result nutrient imbalance. This study aimed to investigate the effects enzyme combination (a mixture 6-phytase, serine protease, and endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase) functional immunostimulant brewer's yeast, nucleotides, vitamin C, E) improving overall Pac...
