Response of Broiler Chickens to Variation in Dietary Nutrient Content

Book Description
Rising feed costs, environmental pollution concerns targeted at animal agriculture, a worldwide focus on sustainability and the never ending battle to improve production and efficiency within the poultry industry challenges nutritionists to focus on products to improve nutrient digestibility and decrease feed costs while at the same time maximizing performance. The research presented in this dissertation focuses on improving nutrient utilization of protein sources with protein liberating enzymes currently available commercially. The research also conducted addresses the addition of crystalline amino acids valine and isoleucine and their effect on improving efficiency of broilers. The first research project compared the efficacy of two commercially available protease enzymes; Ronozyme ProAct (DSM, Parsippany, NJ) and Cibenza DP-100 (Novus International, St. Charles, MO). Both are broad spectrum proteases that claim to improve protein digestibility. The protein source in the broiler diet is one of the most expensive ingredients. For the past fifty years broiler diets have been supplemented with essential amino acids such as methionine and lysine and more recently threonine further reducing crude protein and at the same time decreasing diet cost. The next series of studies were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of reducing crude protein with the addition of the crystalline amino acids valine isoleucine and glycine along with those supplemental amino acids already commercially available.

Predicting Feed Intake of Food-Producing Animals
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 030903695X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
How much do animals eat? Why do eating patterns change? How do physiological, dietary, and environmental factors affect feed intake? This volume, a comprehensive overview of the latest animal feed intake research, answers these questions with detailed information about the feeding patterns of fishes, pigs, poultry, dairy cows, beef cattle, and sheep. Equations for calculating predicted feed intake are presented for each animal and are accompanied by charts, graphs, and tables.
