Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
'Feed efficiency in swine' has been prepared as a comprehensive treatise on the current state of our understanding of this topic which is so important to the pork industry. Each chapter is written by international authorities who understand both the science and application of their topic area. The book provides detailed insight into the many factors affecting feed efficiency, ranging from diet processing to herd health, from nutrition to physiology and from day-to-day barn management to the adoption of advanced technologies. The authors explain such practical aspects as the challenge of interpreting feed efficiency information obtained on farm or the role of liquid feeding. The authors also delve into more scientific topics such as amino acid or energy metabolism or animal physiology. This book is written for people who have a technical interest in pork production, including nutritionists, geneticists, farm management specialists, veterinarians, other academics and, of course, pork producers.

Energy-protein Relationships in High-fat Rations for Growing-finishing Swine

Book Description
An experiment was conducted with 48 Yorkshire x Berkshire crossbred barrows to evaluate the influence of varying Calorie: protein ratios in high-fat rations on performance and carcass quality of growing-finishing swine. Pigs were individually fed rations containing three levels of fat (lard): 0, 15 and 30 percent. Each fat level was incorporated into rations differing by Calorie: protein ratio (Kcal. digestible energy per gram of crude protein). Two ratios were employed, based on (1) a ration containing 1500 Kcal. of digestible energy and 14 percent crude protein, approximately that commonly used in swine grower diets, and (2) a ration containing a similar energy level as (1), with the crude protein level raised to 20 percent. Responses were obtained over two growth periods (60-130 and 130-200 pounds live weight). Animals were slaughtered after exceeding a weight of 200 pounds and carcass data were collected. Pigs consuming the higher protein diets exhibited a significantly poorer average daily gain (P

Book Description
In the years since the third edition of this indispensable reference was published, a great deal has been learned about the nutritional requirements of common laboratory species: rat, mouse, guinea pig, hamster, gerbil, and vole. The Fourth Revised Edition presents the current expert understanding of the lipid, carbohydrate, protein, mineral, vitamin, and other nutritional needs of these animals. The extensive use of tables provides easy access to a wealth of comprehensive data and resource information. The volume also provides an expanded background discussion of general dietary considerations. In addition to a more user-friendly organization, new features in this edition include: A significantly expanded section on dietary requirements for rats, reporting substantial new findings. A new section on nutrients that are not required but that may produce beneficial results. New information on growth and reproductive performance among the most commonly used strains of rats and mice and on several hamster species. An expanded discussion of diet formulation and preparationâ€"including sample diets of both purified and natural ingredients. New information on mineral deficiency and toxicity, including warning signs. This authoritative resource will be important to researchers, laboratory technicians, and manufacturers of laboratory animal feed.
