Effects of the use of 200 g of either wheat bran, sugar beet pulp, soya bean hulls or alfalfa meal per kilogram diet on the digestive process of the weaned piglet were studied on 24 Duroc Landrace male piglets, weaned at 28 days of age. Piglets had an initial mean live weight of 7.92( 1.1) kg and were randomly distributed in six successive blocks of four animals. The total tract apparent digest...

twenty four multiparous holstein cows in their early stage of lactation with a mean of 59±20 dim and a mean of 615±40.5 kg of bw were employed in a complete randomized block design to evaluate the effects of different levels of sugar beet pulp in a partial replacement for alfalfa, the only source of forage in their previous diet (treat 1, 0% beet pulp and 35% alfalfa, treat 2 ,6% beet pulp and ...

The objectives of this experiment were to determine a NE value for pressed beet pulp and the value of concentrated separator by-product (de-sugared molasses) as a ruminal N source in growing and finishing diets for beef cattle. One hundred forty-four cross-bred beef steers (282 +/- 23 kg of initial BW) were used in 2 experiments (growing and finishing). A randomized complete block design was us...

Six multiparous, ruminally cannulated Holstein cows (46 DIM, 584 kg of BW) and 6 primiparous Holstein cows (35 DIM, 506 kg of BW) were used in two 6 x 6 Latin squares with 21-d periods to examine the effects of level of non-fiber carbohydrate, source of fibrous carbohydrate, and Aspergillus oryzae fermentation extract on intake, digestion, and milk production. Treatments were 42 and 36% non-fib...

isolates of a. flavus obtained from different feeds such as corn, barley, wheat, cotton ‎seed, bread waste, soybean, alfalfa, wheat bran, barley meal, canola meal, corn silage and beet ‎pulp from nine dairy farms in tehran province during 2004. ability of sclerotiom production by ‎isolates was tested. results showed 62.9 percent of isolates produced sclerotiom on cza medium ‎and 68.5 percent of...

OBJECTIVE Two ex vivo experiments were conducted to verify the effect of barley grain (Nusrat cultivar) treated with alkaline compounds (AC) including alum, ammonium, and sodium hydroxide or cation-exchanged organic extracts (OE) prepared from alfalfa hay, sugar beet pulp and Ulva Fasciata, on extent and digestion of starch. METHODS In the first study, the in vitro first order disappearance k...

High fiber and nonstarch polysaccharide-based poultry diets have received more interest recently for retaining or promoting beneficial gastrointestinal microbial populations. The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the in vitro potential fermentability of high-fiber feed substrates (HFFS) by laying hen cecal microflora. Feed sources examined included soybean meal, soybean hul...

Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beets into sugar. Beet pulp is extracted grounded sugar beet. It is used as livestock feed and it can be fed fresh, dried and ensiled (fermented beet pulp). Sugar beet pulp is a by-product from the processing of sugar beet which is used as fodder for cattle and other livestock. It is supplied either as dried flakes or as compressed pe...
