Most dairy farms in Wisconsin continue to follow a fairly generalized formula of how to produce milk. Cows and replacement heifers are fed primarily homegrown feed from crop rotations comprising alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), corn (Zea mays L.), oats (Avena spp.) and soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.). Protein and mineral supplements are purchased to compliment dairy diets. However, the dairy indust...

Defatted microalgal biomass derived from biorefinery can be potential feed ingredients for carnivorous fish. The present study investigated the growth, feed intake:gain and health parameters in Atlantic salmon fed for 84 days with defatted Nannochloropsis oceania as a fishmeal replacer. Fish fed feeds containing the algal biomass (at 10 and 20% inclusion, alga groups) were compared with groups ...

Golden trevally, Gnathanodon speciosus is a new candidate for aquaculture in Viet Nam. This species has rapid growth, high market value, delectable flavour. Finding solutions to enhance production by promoting growth necessary golden trevally aquaculture. Vitamin E one of the feed supplements which proven benefit on other but there not been any study trevally. Therefore, this experiment was des...

honeybees like the other animal creatures require proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals vitamins and water for their maintenance, growth and reproduction. normally they obtain their nutritional requirements from flowers but there are times when there aren’t sufficient flowers within reach they become in need of supplemental feeding. some such nutritional substances as soybeans, glutens, yeast...

Pests and diseases are prevalent on food commodities such as maize, sorghum, millet, cassava in the field during storage. Toxigenic fungi Aspergillus, Fusarium, Penicillium create mycotoxins, which secondary metabolites. Both people animals susceptible to their mutagenic, teratogenic, carcinogenic effects. Aspergillus flavus parasitic generate most potent found agricultural products peanuts, ma...

proper feeding is necessary to have appropriate growth, health and also to increase resistance to inappropriate condition such as stressors and diseases. therefore mineral and vitamin supplements are added to fish diet to improve its growth and health. food supplements have different roles in diet. these cause better food metabolism, higher hardness and strength of bones, better ionic exchanges...

Plant proteins are plausible fishmeal substitutes but are deficient in some essential amino acids (EAA) like lysine and methionine. Combination of different plant proteins with complimentary EAA could be useful alternative. Bambaranut (Voandzeia subterranea) contains high amount of lysine while methionine is in sesame seed (Sesamum indicum). This experiment tested effects of combining sesame se...
