A study was conducted to understand effects of feeding soy NSP exogenously added in typical starter diet in broiler chicks on performance, GI microbiota, nutrient digestibility and dietary net energy…
…gross energy analysis. Nitrogen-corrected metabolizable energy (MEn), energy retention, and NE in the basal diet were greater (P < 0.05) than values in the test diets containing SBM-46 and SBM-48….
Previous work has reported that piglets may be unable to increase feed intake to meet energy demands in low-energy diets, contrary to growing pigs. Indeed, poor feed intake in piglets…
This experiment was focused on determining the potential outcomes of feeding varying levels of CP and net energy (NE) on live performance and carcass traits during the finisher phase (31–41d)…
…more dietary grains (e.g., starch) resulting in an energy imbalance, a reflection of not adjusting dietary energy needs as protein supply is lowered, or a combination of the former? The…
Our objective was to determine the effects of feeding different net energy (NE) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) on performance of growing-finishing pigs from 30- to 135-kg. A total of…
…received a standard diet, followed by consecutive weekly treatment periods, one block at a time. Feed was restricted to ensure similar energy intake. Feed intake was recorded. Body energy gain…
…2 experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of CP and amino acids (AA), apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of energy and total dietary fiber…
Two experiments were conducted to determine the digestibility of energy and nutrients and the concentration of DE, ME, and NE in fermented soybean meal (FSBM), conventional soybean meal (SBM), and…
…evaluate pig performance. Determining Productive Energy Content of Soybean Meal For many years, nutritionists have used digestible energy (DE) and metabolizable energy (ME) to estimate the energy content of…
