This experiment evaluated responses of broilers under different coccidiosis control programs when fed elevated amino acid (AA) concentrations achieved with increased dietary soybean meal (SBM) or feed-grade essential AA. Ross…
…being particle size (PS). The PS is an important factor of feed manufacturing that impacts mixability, feed flowability, pellet quality, and animal performance. The objective of this study was to…
…performance. DDGS has been used as an alternative to protein sources in poultry diets due to its nutritional characteristics. As well as other mycotoxins, FBs present in corn are concentrated…
…is greater than 6.0%. If these quality parameters are not met, reduced performance of the pigs is expected. In addition to amino acids, soybean meal also provides calcium and phosphorus…
The use of soybean meal in poultry diets can must be tested for antinutritional factors, which is easily identified with ureatic activity and protein solubility in KOH analysis. This research…
The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of supplementation of soybean meal during gestation on piglet quality. Females were reared at the NCDA Tidewater Research Station (Plymouth,…
Data was collected on 1866 sows at a 3600 sow commercial farm in eastern North Carolina. Sows were randomly assigned to one of four treatments from day 108 of gestation…
…that using a combination of ileal digestibility values determined using chicks and analytical values may allow the nutritionist to better evaluate commercial SBMs and formulate diets that support greater performance….
…a similar performance that those fed 16.2% when methionine alone or a mixture of methionine, lysine, threonine, tryptophan, valine and isoleucine were supplemented. The daily amino acid requirements of laying…
