Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConventional Beef Cattle Farming Practices in Wolaita and Sidama, Southern EthiopiaAbenezer Wendimu, Wondimagegnehu TekalignBeef cattle farming is an integral part of livelihood for rural and urban smallholder farmers in developing countries. We aimed to describe the cattle farming practices in selected communities of Diguna Fango district, Wolaita Zone, and Sidama Region, Southern Ethiopia. Data were collected with pretested, semi-structured questionnaires applying a cross-sectional study. A stratified sampling was used to select a total … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 2 Aug 2023 · 7,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of the Cresacin Feed Additive on the Digestibility of Nutrients, Productivity and Egg Quality in Egg Laying QuailsDjunaydi Gayirbegov, Gayaz EngurazovThe purpose of the article was to study the effect of the Cresacin feed additive on the digestibility and use of nutrients in the diet of egg laying quails, as well as their egg productivity and quality. The experiment was carried out on 600 heads of one-day-old quails of the Estonian breed, which were divided into four similar groups of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 6 Mar 2023 · 5,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMilk Production and Quality of Etawa Crossbred Goats with Non-Conventional Forages and Palm ConcentratesArief, Roni PazlaUsing Tithonia (Tithonia diversifolia), Cassava leaves (Manihot utilisima), and Gamal (Gliricidia sepium) as alternative fibers, and palm concentrate as an alternative protein, is one way to implement an effective feeding strategy under a limited supply or lack of feed sources for Etawa Crossbreed Dairy Goats (ECDG). This research aimed to study the productive traits and milk quality of ECDG fed … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2023 · 6,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnzymatic Hydrolysis of Pretreated Kenaf using a Recombinant Xylanase: Effects of Reaction Conditions for Optimum Hemicellulose HydrolysisNur Izyan Wan Azelee, Jamaliah Md Jahim, Ahmad Fauzi Ismail et al.An efficient hemicellulose hydrolysis has now become a crucial step for xylooligosaccharides production for food additives and nutraceuticals industries. In this study, xylanase hydrolysis of pretreated hemicellulosic kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) for substantial hemicellulose hydrolysis was demonstrated. Experiments were performed primarily to investigate the effect of several critical reaction conditions towards the enzymatic hydrolysis of the pre-treated kenaf. The effects of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 28 Apr 2016 · 7,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtended Kalman Filter versus Newton-Lowe's Method for Robot Pose EstimationMohammad Ehab RagabIn this work, we study the pose estimation problem of anautonomous mobile robot. Particularly, we compare the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to Lowe's method based on the iterative Newton's method for solving a system of nonlinear equations. Although the EKF is recursive which renders it suitable for the real-time problem at hand, Lowe's method has much less dimensionality. This is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 5 Nov 2015 · 6,940 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN IN-HOUSE COMPUTER-BASED DATA ACQUISITION AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ANAEROBIC FERMENTATION PROCESSESE. A. Echiegu, A. E. GhalyA computer-based Data Acquisition and Control System (DACS) capable of monitoring the temperature, pH and gas production as well as maintaining a pre-determined temperature profile and feeding regime in anaerobic reactors was developed and tested. The hardware for the DACS was a series-based system consisting of a host processor which drives three modules-a digital input mode (MODULE 255), an analog … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Nov 2014 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMORPHOPHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATIONS OF THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT IN PIGLETS FED A SESAME MEAL OR SOYBEAN MEAL DIETAraceli Aguilera Barreyro, Tércia Reis de Souza, Gerardo Mariscal-Landín et al.An important indicator to recommend a protein source for piglet nutrition is the absence of intestinal damage. The effects of sesame or soybean meal based diets on Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) morphophysiology, diarrhea incidence and severity in piglets were studied during the first two weeks post-weaning. Thirty-six piglets weaned at 21 days of age were fed one of three diets: A … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2014 · 7,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Biological Dietary Feed Supplement for Laying Hens with Microelements Based on Duckweed (Lemna minor)Zuzanna Witkowska, Agnieszka Saeid, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.In this study the applicability of enriched duckweed (Lemna minor) as a dietary supplement witch microelements is reported. In our previous studies, the technology of new feed additives with microelements based on duckweed biomass was elaborated. Here, we report the evaluation of the properties of a new product. The effect of duckweed enriched with microelements on the productivity parameters of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 31 Jan 2013 · 8,554 accessesView PDFCite
