Economic Return
Productive energy (PE) predicts performance and economics better than N-corrected apparent metabolizable (AMEn) or classic net energy (CNE; CNE = AME – heat increment, HI). This study developed models to…
…digestibility; ether extract; dry matter; apparent metabolizable energy; nitrogen corrected apparent metabolizable energy; net energy and excreted nitrogen. In addition, performance and economic parameters were analyzed: relative body weight, feed…
…sows supplemented with 1 lb of soy oil prefarrow (4.5 vs. 4.4 days). While .1 of day is not of great economic importance itself, a lower wean-to-conception interval would tend…
…quality and economic value of that meal can be calculated. A lower quality SBM (with lower levels of metabolizable energy and digestible amino acids) may still produce good broiler performance…
…Therefore, the need for alternative feed ingredients to ensure the economic sustainability of the swine industry cannot be overstated. To this end, utilization of co-products from the agri-processing of cereals…
Dry expanded kibbles with ingredients that bring extra nutrition and health benefits are much better received than those which are simply an economic choice by manufacturers. Microbially enhanced protein (MEP)…
Exogenous protease supplementation may help to improve amino acid (AA) utilization in low crude protein (CP) diets. This study was conducted to determine the effects of reducing CP/AA in diets…
…soybean oil extraction process, is an accessible and economical fiber source. However, limited research is available on the use of SBH in feline nutrition. Thus, the aim of this study…
…sources in animal diets. The analysis provides key findings on the elasticities of U.S. soybean meal demand plus an updated and complete state-by-state database on animal agriculture economics and the…
…soybean production in each state in an attempt to closely match U.S. soybean production. This year 1,587 soybean samples were returned for analyses. The samples are analyzed for protein, oil,…
