The use of a’ meat and bone meal as the main protein source for pigs of 20 kg was investigated. It was compared in two feeding periods with soybean and fish meals alone or with mixtures of the two. The pigs, fed either the soybean or the fish meal or the meat and bone meal with either soybean or fish meal, had significantly heavier weight gains than the pigs fed a ration with meat and bone meal...

A feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of eplacement of soybean meal by linseed meal and adding Yucca schidigera powder extract ,methionine and lysine on growth performance and body composition of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L) with an average initial weight of 30.8± 13 g/fish. The experimental* fish were divided into 18 groups and fed on pelleted feed containing each of ...

in the present work we study the use of fourier transform near infrared spectroscopy (ftnirs)technique to analysis the calcium (ca), phosphorus (p) and copper (cu) contents offish meal. the regression methods employed were partial least squares (pls) and kernelpartial least squares (kpls). the results showed that the efficiency of kpls was better thanpls. as a whole, the application of ft-nirs ...

Animal protein, generally fish meal, has traditionally been used in the diet of channel catfish. However, our previous research indicates that animal protein is not needed for growing stockersize catfish to food fish when the fish are stocked at densities typical of those used in commercial catfish culture. Whether this holds when fish are stocked at high densities is not known; thus, we conduc...

A research for eight weekswas conducted to evaluate the effect of substituting fish meal with local agricultural products in diet Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).Three treatment dietaries were prepared. The dietary composition tested diets is as follows: A1/plant based-diet (Groundnut cake, sesame millet bran, maize and 0% meal) A2/fishmeal partial replacement meal, 10% A3/fishmeal 25% mea...

Ž . A feeding trial was designed to evaluate the influence of partial replacement of fish meal FM protein for soy-derived protein in large rainbow trout fed practical, high-energy diets with and Ž without supplemental phytase. A 2=2 factorial arrangement with two soy levels 0% and 69.4% . Ž y1. of the dietary protein from soybeans and two phytase levels 0 and 1200 U kg was used. Soy Ž . Ž . pro...
