in order to study the effect of different levels of β-mannanase enzyme on the performance, blood parameters and carcass characteristics of broiler chicks (arbor acres), an experiment was conducted with 240 checks (44.6 grams average weight) under a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 5 replications and 12 checks per each replicate. β-mannanase enzyme with the levels of zero (t1 c...

this experiment was conducted using 172 male lambs of ghezel and mehraban breeds for two periods of 60 and 80 days. two systems of fattening were studied. the first group of lambs entered feedlot boxes immediately after weaning (spring) but the second group being fed on pasture, entered the experiment approximately 4 months later (autumn). fattening periods were 60 and 80 days. the average wean...

in order to investigate the effect of processing type (whole straw bale processing or opened straw bale processing with urea) on diet digestibility, economical and productive parameters in feedlot cattle, 18 holstein bull with average body weight 224.72 ± 20.45 kg were used in a completely randomized design with 3 treatments and 6 replicate. treatments 1, 2 and 3 contained 40% typical straw, 40...

an 84-day feeding trial was carried out onfingerling (4.44 ± 0.06 g) rainbow trout (oncorhynchusmykiss, walbaum, 1792) to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation with a commercial prebiotic grobiotic®-a (g-a) on the growth, feed efficiency, haematology and immunlogical parameters. ttreatments containing various inclusions of g-a (0 %, 0.5 %, 1.0 %, 1.5 %, 2.0 %, 2.5 %, and 3.0 %) were ad...

in this study, genetic parameters and (co)variance components were estimated for weights at birth, 3, 6, 9, 12, 24 months, daily weight gain from birth to 3 months and daily weight gain from 3 month to 12 month, keliber ratio from birth to 3 months and keliber ratio from 3 to 12 month, and production of fleece for south khorasan goats at sarbisheh station over a period of 16 years (1996–2012). ...

Fourteen trials were conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding monensin at 33 ppm alone, tylosin at 11 ppm alone and the two feed additives in combination on the average daily gain, average daily feed intake, feed:gain ratio and the incidence of liver abscesses in feedlot cattle. Monensin reduced feed intake and improved feed efficiency (P less than .05), and had no effect on average daily g...

For 1,442 Belgian Blue bulls performance-tested at the Centre de Sélection de la Race Blanc-Bleue Belge, nine traits were observed: height at withers at 7 mo, height at withers at 13 mo, weight at 7 mo, weight at 13 mo, average feed consumption of concentrates, average daily gain, average feed consumption of concentrates per average daily gain, average feed consumption of concentrates per mean ...
