The major cost of poultry feed is energy, accounting for more than 70% of the feed costs. Therefore, accurate formulation of feed energy with adequate ingredient energy values is paramount…
…and encouraged to consume feed at 0100 h, 0700 h, 1300 h, and 1900 h. Data was analyzed using the lme function (lmer package of R, version 3.5.2). Feeding sows…

…no effect on mammary development, and feeding the phytoestrogen genistein increases mammary cell number. During late gestation, feeding very high energy levels (10.5 Mcal ME/d) may have detrimental effects on…
…ingredients are accurate. Is the relative change in dietary energy reflected accurately by changes in feed efficiency? If there is not a 1:1 relationship between dietary energy and feed efficiency,…
Phase feeding is employed to optimize lysine levels to meet pigs’ requirements. Therefore, our objective was to evaluate the effect of varying lysine levels and phase lengths in nursery pigs….
