In 2 experiments, 530 pigs were used to evaluate the effects of adding commercial enzymes to diets containing dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) on pig growth performance. In the first experiment, 180 pigs (9.0 kg initial BW) were fed a corn-soybean meal-based control diet, a diet containing 30% corn DDGS, or the 30% DDGS diet with 0.05% of enzyme A, B, or C. There were 6 pigs per pen...

Three studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) on feed intake in growing pigs. In all experiments, pigs were housed in 10.5 × 10.3 ft pens with four 1-hole feeders in each pen to allow pigs to choose from four dietary treatments. In Experiment 1, we evaluated the influence of DDGS drying method on palatability of DDGS. Diets were a control c...

digestibility in broiler chickens fed on corn-soybean meal based diets. the experimental diets consisted of 1.corn-soybean meal based control diet 2. control diet supplemented with pectinas, 3. control diet supplemented with cellulase, 4. control diet supplemented with pectinase + cellulose, 5. control diet supplemented with pectinase + hemicellulase and 6. control diet supplemented with pectin...

Paddy rice is rarely used as a feed because of its high fiber content. In this study, two experiments were conducted to study the effects of supplementing an enzyme complex consisting of xylanase, beta-glucanase and cellulase, to paddy-based diets on the performance and nutrient digestibility in meat-type ducks. In the both experiments, meat-type ducks (Cherry Valley) were randomly assigned to ...

intercropping is considered for increasing and stability of yield in per unit. in order to evaluating the effect of corn/soybean intercrop in different planting dates, a study was carried out in agricultural sciences and natural resources, university of sari, faculty of agriculture during 2005-2006. the experiment was a split plot design based on randomized complete block design with four repli...

This experiment was conducted to study the effect of Aflatoxins (AF) on broiler performance, organ weight, plasma characteristics, protein digestibility, and metabolizable energy of the diets. Dietary treatments were: 1) control diet based on corn and soybean meal; 2, 3 and 4) control diet plus 1 mg kg-1 AF, 1 mg kg-1 AF and 0.25% mycosorb, and 0.25% Mycosorb, respectively. The results in the A...
