Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Possibilities of the Application of Feed Additives from Macroalgae in Sustainable Mineral Animal FeedingIzabela Michalak, Katarzyna Chojnacka, Peter GlavičProblem statement: The idea of the application of biological material as mineral feed additives could constitute an innovative practice that would encourage environmental sustainability. The main idea of this study was to present the advantages of macroalgae enriched with microelements when compared to inorganic salts. Approach: In order to evaluate the potential participation of macroalgae in sustainable animal feeding, it … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Palm Kernel Cake Based Biosupplement Biscuits on Nutrient Utilization, Growth Performance, and Metabolic Responses in Male Ettawah GoatsTintin Rostini, Suharlina, Achmad Jaelani et al.Palm Kernel Cake (PKC), a major by-product of the palm oil industry, has considerable potential as an alternative feed ingredient for ruminants because of its wide availability, moderate protein content, and economic value. However, its utilization is often constrained by high fiber and lignocellulosic components that may limit nutrient digestibility. This study evaluated the effects of PKC-based biosupplement biscuits as … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 22 Oct 2026 · 312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficacy of Feeding Earthworm Meal-Based Diet on Feed Intake, Weight Gain, and Apparent Digestibility Coefficient of Red Sokoto GoatMoshood Adewale Belewu et al.Feed which contributes about 70-80% of the cost of feeding is one of the major problems of livestock production. Feeding nutritious feed to animals is vital for the vigor and wellbeing of livestock and human being and the nutrient it contains assist animal to grow, develop and reproduce.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Management and Hormonal Oestrous Synchronisation on Indigenous Sheep Reared ExtensivelyAyanda Maqhashu, Jabulani Nkululeko Ngcobo, Hester Adri O'Neill et al.As the global population increases, demand for animal products will result in increased livestock-related greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. One of the strategies for reducing this impact would be the improvement of indigenous livestock reproductive efficiency that are hardy and well adapted to harsh environmental regions. The use of reproductive technologies increases efficiency of animals necessary for … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 29 Aug 2024 · 4,778 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Morphometric Traits to Estimate Live Body Weight of South African Bapedi SheepThabang Sako, Jones Ng’ambi, Thomas Raphulu et al.This study was carried out for the estimation of Body Weight (BW) of bapedi sheep from Body Length (BL), Sterna Height (SH), Heart Girth (HG), Height at Withers (WH), Rump Height (RH) and Head Length (HL). Correlation and regression were used. Correlation displayed that body weight is highly positively associated (p<0.01) with WH and HG in males while for females, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 26 Jun 2024 · 5,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of a Phytomineral Complex and an Enzyme Preparation on the Absorption of Nutrients and the Energy Balance of Calves' DietEvgeniia Erenko, Aleksandr Ovchinnikov, Marat Aubakirov et al.Cost-effective animal husbandry directly depends on the correct breeding of replacement young animals using diets corresponding to the feeding rate for all nutrition elements of the detailed system. Critical to these diets are biogenic elements, pivotal in enzymatic reactions and immune defense. However, specifics on enhancing nutrient absorption through dietary supplements remain underexplored, particularly in the context of calves' preweaning … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 12 Jun 2024 · 4,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDietary Inclusion of Sunflower Seed Alters Blood Plasma and Endometrium Lipid Profile in Beef CowsMariângela Bueno Cordeiro Maldonado, Ricardo de Oliveira Rodrigues, Dante Pazzanese Duarte Lanna et al.Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA)-enriched diets are recognized as a significant approach for improving the reproductive efficiency of cattle. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of sunflower seed, a PUFA-rich feed source, supplementation on plasma and endometrium lipid profiles in beef cattle. It was hypothesized that feeding of sunflower seed has an additional effect on PUFA that … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2023 · 5,547 accessesView PDFCite
