内容説明

The way in which the performance of ruminant species may be improved by modifying animal function is of importance to the scientists and the producer. Food is the major factor but the role of season, photoperiod, hormones and growth promoters must also be considered. This book discusses recent developments in many facets of ruminant nutrition and feeding. The selection of chapters reflects the state of the agricultural industry and its influence on the research effort. Recent developments in ruminant nutrition and recent developments in pig nutrition has prompted the compilation of this volume. All the contributions have been published previously in recent proceedings of the University of Nottingham Feed Manufacturers Conferences.
