this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding treated wheat straw with urea and whey on fattening lambs performance. about 4.5 kg urea and 1.5 kg salt were dissolved in 40 l water and mixed with 30 l of whey. the solution was spread over 100 kg chopped wheat straw. thirty two male lambs were randomly divided into four feeding groups to compare performance with diets based on barley...

Short description: In Bavaria, feeding cattle with maize silage is a common method, which is practiced even in for maize unfavorable locations. With increasing feed costs a partial substitution of maize by grass silage could be economically reasonable. Especially against the background of bioenergy production from cereals and maize, a competitive situation can evolve and grass as feedstuff can ...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of recycled poultry bedding (RPB) treated with different levels of pomegranate peel extract (PPE) as a tannin source on cellulolytic bacterial population and rumen fermentation parameters of fattening lambs. For this purpose, twenty-eight Arabian lambs (19.70 ± 2.45 kg body weight, 90 ± 12 days of age) were randomly assigned to four dietary tr...

Some individuals have a neurogenetic vulnerability to developing strong facilitation of ingestive movements by learned configurations of biosocial stimuli. Condemning food as addictive is mere polemic, ignoring the contextualised sensory control of the mastication of each mouthful. To beat obesity, the least fattening of widely recognised eating patterns needs to be measured and supported.

An'outline of the recentAgricultural Research Council (UK) proposals for assessing protein requirements of ruminants (ARC, 1980), is presented, The importance of considering both rumen degradable protein (RDP) and rumen undegradable protein (WYP) is n&d, Calculations of the protein requirements and formulation of rations for (i) a high yielding' cow in early lactation and (ii) a growing/fatteni...

Despite a shortage of animal feed in Iran, cereal stubble is often underutilized due to agro-economic reasons. On the other hand, lambs fed with a conventional fattening ration deposit a considerable amount of fat; therefore, this experiment was conducted aimed at better utilization of cereal stubble and reducing the fat content of lamb carcasses. Fat-tailed Mehraban and Ghezel ram lambs were p...

goal words (e.g., ‘‘equality,’’ ‘‘thin’’) significantly predicted their success at pursuing those goals, and sometimes did so above and beyond participants’ explicit (i.e., intentional, conscious) ratings of the desirability of the goals (Ferguson, 2007). Together, these findings suggest that successful goal pursuit (e.g. refusing a fattening snack), may at times depend on people’s ‘‘snap’’ eva...

The expansion of export demand for sheep meats has led to a resurgance of interest by producers in short term feedlot systems of fattening for sheep and lambs. Apart from the cost of rations, the incidence of disease and metabolic disorders is an important determinant of profitability. This paper describes a feedlot experiment at Hamilton during which an outbreak of polioencephalomalacia (PEM) ...

A study was conducted between May 2013 and August 2014 in three provinces of Vietnam to investigate financial impacts of swine diseases in pig holdings in 2010-2013. The aim of the study was to quantify the costs of swine diseases at producer level in order to understand swine disease priority for monitoring at local level. Financial impacts of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRR...
