Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of a corn-soybean meal (C-SBM) and a sorghum-soybean meal (S-SBM) diet on reproductive performance and nutrient utilization by sows. In Exp. 1, 75 sows (39 gilts; 36 primiparous) were fed either a C-SBM or a S-SBM gestation diet from breeding to d 109. On d 110, sows were assigned to lactation diets; half of the sows from each dietary tr...

Classical super-Brownian motion (SBM) is known to take values in the space of absolutely continuous measures only if d=1. For d¿2 its values are almost surely singular with respect to Lebesgue measure. This result has been generalized to more general motion laws and branching laws (yielding di erent critical dimensions) and also to catalytic SBM. In this paper we study the case of a catalytic m...

Six mature wethers (BW 72 kg) with ruminal, duodenal, and ileal cannulas were fed a control (no added soybean meal [SBM]) diet or diets containing unheated SBM or SBM roasted at 165 degrees C for 75, 150, 180, or 210 min in a 6 x 6 Latin square experiment. Concentrations of indicators of heat exposure (ADIN, ADF, NDF) in SBM increased with increasing roasting time. Duodenal flows of total N, no...

In recent years, the relationship between wage growth and unemployment gap, known as Phillips curve, has been puzzlingly weak: whereas gap was low, low well. We consider two possible explanations for this ‘low puzzle’: (i) a structural change in labor market slack, (ii) failure of to adequately capture demand conditions. propose new measure slack based on survey among firms asking whether short...

Sixty-six barrows (initial BW: 27.4 ± 2.8 kg) were used to determine the standardized total tract digestibility (STTD) of P in copra meal (CM), palm kernel expellers from Indonesia (PKE-IN), palm kernel expellers from Costa Rica (PKE-CR), palm kernel meal from Costa Rica (PKM), and soybean meal (SBM) without or with exogenous phytase. Pigs were housed individually in metabolism cages and allott...

Experiments were conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of yellow-seeded rapeseed meal (YRSM). In the first experiment nutrient retention was recorded by 48 Arbor Acres-broiler chickens (28-d old) to determine AMEn (nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolizable energy), coefficient of apparent protein digestibility based on ileal digesta nitrogen, excreta nitrogen and uric acid nitrogen. The s...

This study aimed to evaluate whole white lupin (cv. Amiga) seeds as an alternative dietary crude protein source to soybean and sunflower meal. Diets contained soybean meal (10%, SBM diet), sunflower meal (17%, SFM diet) or white lupin seeds (15%, WL diet) as the main protein source. The experimental diets were similar in the level of crude protein (16.2%), starch (15.0%), fat (4.6%) and in the ...

Electrical power distribution is the most important division in supply chain. However, its sustainability terms of efficiency very for growth every country. This main objective paper to assess productivity dynamics this process using data envelopment analysis (DEA) methodology analyse effectiveness electricity regions (EDRs) over a period 7 years. The adapts biennial Malmquist index by infusing...

Analyzing the impact of agricultural industrial agglomeration (AIG) on green development (AGD) is a great significance to realizing sustainable and high-quality agriculture. Panel data 31 provinces in China from 2009 2019 were analysed. For measuring efficiency, non-parametric DEA approach presence undesirable outputs, slack-based measure (SBM) was used. From perspective spatial spillover analy...
