BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Unhygienic poultry feedstuffs can lead to nutrient losses and detrimental effect on poultry production and public health. In the present study, mycobiota and colony-forming units per gram in ingredients and finish poultry feed was evaluated with special reference to potentially mycotoxigenic fungi. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty five samples of corn, soybean meal and p...

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of humic acids (HA) supplementation provided through drinking water on performance, carcass and some gut traits of broilers. In a randomized design, 480 mixed-sexes Ross 308 broilers were allocated into four experimental groups consisted of four replicate (30 birds per replication). All birds were housed in pens over 42 day. All chickens were...

Abstract The augmented block design (ABD) is commonly used in breeding programs to evaluate the performance of large number genotypes using non-replicated new test treatments and replicated check treatments. purpose this determine which treatment performs better than objective study identifying genotype Mash been under rain feed condition Pakistan. For purpose, data 125 mash included 5 entries ...

Aquaponics is a cultivation system that combines aquaculture and agricultural hydroponics. This study investigated the productivity of leafy vegetables cultivated in hybrid biofloc technology-aquaponics (HBFT-AP) using Japanese eel fed two kinds diets (Mash, commercial powdered feed extruded pellet [EP]) hydroponics (HP).The mash was to fish type dough mixed with water for 6 weeks (Exp1) switch...

Previously we showed that free-range hens fed diets supplemented with diatomaceous earth (DE) were significantly heavier, laid more eggs, and consumed more feed than hens fed the control diet, with no differences in feed efficiency. In the present study, we compared plasma calcium concentrations, and bone mineralization of the hens from our previous study to test the effect of DE on these param...

Fuorisalone during Milano Design Week, with almost three thousands events spread around more than six hundreds venues, attracts half a million visitors: what do they say and feel about those events? Twindex Fuorisalone is a mash-up that listens what all those visitors posted on Twitter and Instragram in that week. In this paper, we briefly report on how Twindex Fuorisalone works and on its abil...

The objective of this experiment was to determine the effects medium chain fatty acids (MCFA) in mash and crumbled pellet broiler diets. A total 400 male chicks (Cobb 500; initial BW 0.092 lb) were housed 4 Petersime batteries used an 18-d study. Treatments randomly assigned 80 cages within location block resulting 8 per treatment with 5 cage at placement. arranged a 2 × factorial main feed typ...

This study evaluated live performance, carcass, abdominal fat and commercial cuts yields of broilers fed corn-soybean meal diets with increasing digestible valine to lysine levels from 21 to 42 days of age. One thousand five hundred and seventy-five Cobb vs Cobb 500 male broilers were raised with the same commercial mash feed until 21 days of age. Seven treatments with 9 replications of 25 bird...
