Description

Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition-1984 documents the proceedings of the Eighteenth Annual Nutrition Conference for Feed Manufacturers. It covers a wide range of topics pertaining to the nutrition of farm livestock. The volume is organized into four parts. Part I on poultry nutrition contains papers relating to carcass quality in broilers. These deal with the influence of diet and genotype, and various aspects of meat quality. Part II on pig nutrition includes studies on the nutrition of early weaned pigs; differences in the recommendations of the Agricultural Research Council (UK) and the National Research Council (US) for energy and protein for growing pigs; and the importance of ileal digestibility of proteins in pig feeds. Part III on ruminant and horse nutrition includes papers on the efficacy of a wide range of substances for the manipulation of rumen fermentation to increase the efficiency of production; and new chemical methods for predicting the nutritive value of forages. Part IV on dairy cow nutrition addresses the practical aspects of feeding protein to dairy cattle and manipulation of milk composition by dietary means.

Description

The efficient nutrition of both farm and leisure species of animals is essential for their production, health and well-being. This volume contains the edited proceedings of the 22nd University of Nottingham Feed Manufacturers Conference and it seeks to reflect this concern. In addition to the usual ruminant and non-ruminant farm species, it includes papers dealing with nutrition of turkeys, gamebirds, horses and pigs. The first part deals with general aspects of nutrition and considers vitamin E and free radical formation and their possible implications for animal nutrition, the problems of dealing with raw ingredient variability and the use of European legumes in pig and poultry diets. The book then looks at pig nutrition and considers both novel approaches to growth promotion and the acidification of pig diets. In the section dealing with poultry nutrition there are chapters on the nutrient requirements of turkeys to meet current market demands, mineral and trace element requirements of poultry and the response of laying hens to energy and amino acids. A section on ruminant nutrition discusses prediction of the metabilizable energy content of compound feeds, nutrient allowances and alternative approaches to the characterization of feedstuffs. The volume concludes with a section discussing the nutrition of alternative species. The work is intended to be of value to researchers, producers, students and workers in the feedstuffs industry.

Description

Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition: 1992 is an annual review of the changes and updates in the field of animal nutrition, especially progresses in the study of feeds. The book is divided into four parts. Part I discusses topics related to nutrition in non-ruminant animals, while Part II covers ruminant nutrition. Part III tackles studies about general nutrition such as the use of growth promoters in animal feeds and predicting the response to variation and diet, and Part IV deals with feed compounding and its effects. The text is recommended for agriculturists, zoologists, and those involved in the development and manufacture of feeds who would like to know more about the nutrition of agriculturally important animals.
