this study was investigate the effects of two levels of metabolism energy (me) and length of fattening periods on performance and growth characteristics of chalishtori male lambs. 64 ram lambs were weaning and intake diets with two levels of energy include: 2.5 and 2.3 mcal me/kg dm in 90 and 120 days fattening period. in this study used of completely random designs with 2×2 factorial methods (...

A large part of the environmental impact of animal production systems is due to the production of feed. Insects are suggested to efficiently convert feed to body mass and might therefore form a more sustainable food and/or feed source. Four diets were composed from by-products of food manufacturing and formulated such as to vary in protein and fat content. These were offered to newly hatched Ar...

to evaluate antioxidant effects of tomato pomace in broiler diets contained full-fat linseed on the production index, energy and protein efficiency, 396 one-day old ross 308 broilers were randomly allocated to 36 cages for nine dietary treatments with four replicate. this experiment were carried out in a completely randomized design with 3*3 factorial arrangement with three levels of full-fat l...

this study was carried out to determine the effects of immunogen as a prebiotic on growth-related parameters and gut micro-flora in r. kutum fry. a basal diet was formulated using common feed ingredients supplemented with immunogen at 0, 1, 1.5, and 2 g kg-1 leading to four experimental diets.  fish were randomly distributed in 500 l fiberglass tanks (1×1×0.5 m). the experiment lasted for eight ...

Diets containing low-quality durum wheat (716 g/kg) for production of pasta were used to feed male broiler chicks. The efficacy of xylanase supplementation and the impact of xylanase inhibitors on losses in exogenous enzyme activity were analyzed. Birds fed on the basal diet, not supplemented with recombinant xylanases or Roxazyme G, reached a BW of 1,509 g with a feed conversion ratio of 1.77 ...

This paper presents design of generalized resonant dc/dc converter with class E oscillator and a experimental result for low output Q and finite dc-feed inductance are shown. Low Q and finite dc-feed inductance is effective to minimize the circuit scale. Therefore, it is required to design the converter with any conditions, i.e., low output Q and finite dc-feed inductance. The experimental meas...

watermelon seed full-fat (wmsf) and watermelon seed meal (wmsm) samples were analyzed for proximate composition and then incorporated in broiler chicks diets at increasing levels up to 20%. feeding increasing levels of wmsf to broiler chicks for up to 20% increased weight gain (p

Feed efficiency is a paramount factor for livestock economy. Previous studies had indicated a substantial heritability of several feed efficiency traits. In our study, we investigated the genetic background of residual feed intake, a commonly used parameter of feed efficiency, in a cattle resource population generated from crossing dairy and beef cattle. Starting from a whole genome association...
