Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Wheat Bran, EM Bacteria, Ammonium Nitrate and Fungal Additives on Fermentation and Forage Quality of Rice Straw SilageBin Yang, Jiahuan Liu, Dongmei Ma et al.The global ruminant industry is constrained by a persistent shortage of high-quality roughage, thus rendering the bioconversion of agricultural residues, such as rice straw, a critical priority. Nevertheless, the high lignification, silicification, and nitrogen deficiency of rice straw pose significant biological barriers to traditional ensiling. This study investigated the impact of various additives on rice straw silage quality. Six treatments … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2026 · 642 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeta Analysis of Growth Performance of Broilers in Response to Dietary Cassava Leaf Meal InterventionChristian Anayo Mbajiorgu, Ifeanyi Princewill OgbuewuThe use of Cassava Leaf Meal (CLM) in broiler diets has gained attention due to its high crude protein content (24-35%) and other valuable nutrients. Therefore, the objective of this meta-analysis was to assess the impact of diets with and without CLM on broiler growth performance. Search performed on four bibliographic databases produced 584 articles of which 11 were used … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2026 · 578 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynergistic Effects of Wheat Bran and Inoculants on Fermentation and Nutritional Quality of Soybean Straw SilageLie Yang, Rundong Qin, Jiahuan Liu et al.The efficient valorisation of lignocellulosic biomass from soybean straw into high-quality silage remains a pressing challenge for sustainable livestock production. This study employed a 3×3 factorial design to systematically investigate the interactive effects between wheat bran additions (0%, 10%, 20% of fresh weight) and microbial inoculant regimes (control, Effective Microorganisms, EM+Trichoderma longibrachiatum) on soybean straw silage quality. Two-way ANOVA revealed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2026 · 1,109 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Nutrient Composition in Feed Supplements Used by Communal Beef Farmers During the Dry Season in Ga-Matlala, Limpopo ProvinceThapelo Rosina Monkwe, Masibonge Gxasheka, Busisiwe GunyaThis study assessed the nutrient composition of feed supplements commonly used by communal beef cattle farmers during the dry season in Limpopo Province of South Africa. A total of seven feed supplements, such as lucerne hay, maize stover, salt licks, calf grower, calf milk replacer, cattle feed pellets, and soybean meal, were sampled and analysed for proximate composition and mineral … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2026 · 1,651 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Processing Methods on Nutrient Composition of Black Soldier Fly Larvae Reared on Slaughterhouse Waste and Rice BranNurul Isnaini, Faizal AndriBlack Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae have emerged as a sustainable and nutrient-dense resource for livestock feed, primarily due to their high protein and lipid contents. However, the nutritional composition of BSF larvae is substantially influenced by the processing methods. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of five processing methods (room dried, sun dried, oven dried, microwave dried, and roasted) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 4 Dec 2025 · 3,071 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMarket Analysis and Evaluation of the Nutritional Quality of Fodder Grown in Urban and Peri-Urban Areas of Niamey, NigerSalou Issaka Seybou, Fernàndez Rebollo Pilar, José Ramon Leal Murillo et al.The development of domestic ruminant livestock farming is hampered by the lack of forage, which is largely dependent on natural pastures and crop residues. In the outskirts of major cities, access to grazing land is becoming increasingly restricted. To meet the growing demand for fodder, feed markets are emerging in urban centers. The main aim of this one-year, three-season study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 7 Nov 2025 · 2,135 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Lentil Breeding Models for South-East Kazakhstan: Yield, Adaptability, and Protein EnhancementSaikenova Alma Zhumabaevna, Kudaibergenov Mukhtar Sarsenbekovich, Kanatkyzy Makpal et al.This study presents the development of a model for optimizing lentil breeding in the agroclimatic conditions of southeastern Kazakhstan. By evaluating 31 lentil varieties and hybrid populations (F1, F2, and F3), key economically valuable traits such as yield, protein content, drought resistance, and adaptability to mechanized harvesting were identified. A systematic selection process enabled the creation of lentil variety models … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 24 Sep 2025 · 3,201 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractYield and Nutritional Value of Oats Associated With Vicia in High Andean Conditions of Puno, PeruMarcial Enciso Altamirano, Jimny Nuñez Delgado, Alexandrina Sotelo Méndez et al.The objective of the study was to determine the yield (Kg/ha) and nutritional value of the associated cultivation of oats (Avena sativa) and vicia (Vicia sativa) using different varieties and sowing proportions in high Andean conditions in the Puno region. Three oat varieties were selected: Tayko, Africana and Vilcanota I, and were sown in association with vicia in two proportions: … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 1 Sep 2025 · 5,471 accessesView PDF Cite

Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractRumen Microbiota Mysteries: Nutrition, Function, and its Impact on Livestock ProductivityHamdi Mayulu, Marry ChristiyantoRuminants are important herbivores in the global food system, serving as primary producers of meat and milk. The productivity of these animals is influenced by the functionality of their digestive organs, namely rumen. The digestion, metabolism and nutrients absorption in the rumen epithelium enhance the host defende mechanisms mechanisms, promoting health and productivity in ruminants. Therefore, this review aimed to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 4 Aug 2025 · 4,069 accessesView PDF Cite
