Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSystem Dynamics Analysis of the Determinants of the Malaysian Palm Oil PriceSahra Mohammadi, Fatimah Mohamed Arshad, Bilash Kanti Bala, Abdulla IbragimovThis paper investigates the major determinants of the Malaysian palm oil price using a system dynamics approach. System dynamics methodology is very relevant for examining the feedback relationships, non-linearity and delays exist in palm oil market. It helps understand the palm oil market structure and the resultant behavior and performance particularly On crude Palm Oil (CPO) price. The simulation results … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 10 Jul 2015 · 7,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Various Inclusion Levels of β-Mannanase on Nutrient Digestibility in Diets Consisting of Corn, Soybean Meal and Palm Kernel Expellers Fed to Growing PigsW. B. Kwon, S. K. Park, C. Kong, B.G. KimAn experiment was conducted to determine the effects of various inclusion levels of β-mannanase on the energy and mannan digestibility in diets containing corn, Soybean Meal (SBM) and Palm Kernel Expellers (PKE) fed to growing pigs. The PKE contained 92.6% dry matter, 4,417 kcal gross energy kg-1, 4.02% ash and 31.3% mannan on an as-fed basis. Six barrows with an … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2014 · 7,128 accessesView PDFCite
