The protein quality of an extruded mixture of hatchery by-product meal and soybean meal (EHSM) and the calcium availability of autoclaved hatchery by-product meal (AHBM) were determined. In Experiments 1 and 2, EHSM or soybean meal (SBM) were the only protein sources in diets formulated to contain 16, 20, or 24% CP. In both experiments, there were five or six replicate pens randomly allotted to...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of a two-stage fermented feather meal-soybean meal product (TSFP) on performance, clinical blood biochemistry, and immunity sows piglets. TSFP was by Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y10 for three days in second stage, which showed similar results five-day fermentation B. coagulans (p > 0.05). Fifty hybrid (Duroc × KHAPS black pig) were randomly assigned i...

the aim of the current study was to evaluate the replacement effect of soybean meal (sbm) at different levels (0 as d1, 33 as d2, 67 as d3 and 100% as d4 based on crude protein (cp) content) by guar meal (gm) on ruminal gas production kinetics, ruminal digestibility and fermentation characteristics of a fattening diet for lambs. three experiments were conducted. the first experiment of 144-h in...

The potential use of poultry by-product meal (PBM) and meat and bone meal (MBM) as alternative dietary protein sources for juvenile Macrobrachium nipponense was studied by a 70-day growth trial. Triplicate groups of M. nipponense (initial body weight: 0.37 g) were fed at 20.7-22.4 degrees C on each of the five isoenergetic and isonitrogenous diets (protein content about 38%) with different repl...

Aim: This study was planned to investigate the effect of sugar beet, neem leaf, linseed and coriander on growth parameters such as feed intake, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), performance index (PI), and carcass characteristics in broiler birds. Materials and Methods: The experiment was conducted for a period of 42 days on Vanaraja strain of broiler birds. Different dietary suppl...
