Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the last few decades, poultry farming sectors have witnessed many ups and downs as a result of lack of adequate information on nutrition requirements and feeding programs for individual poultry species. However, compared to other types of livestock sectors, poultry farming industry has advanced in terms of technologies, improved productivity, and consistent improvements in nutrition. Poultry nutrition and other management practices have improved through education expansion, trainings, competition, and survival instincts.Success in poultry farming mainly depends on the type, source, and quality of the feedstuffs. Poultry feeds account for the largest share of the overall poultry production cost incurred. Fortunately, poultry feed requirements are known and there are different standards set to guide the farmer on how to provide the best feeds to their flock. However, poultry feed nutrient compositions differ from one type of ingredient to another and this makes it difficult for the farmers to provide the right feedstuffs that meet nutrients requirements for their flocks. Putting into consideration these factors and other potential problems that may affect poultry production and feeding programs, this book has been prepared to provide the right information on various poultry nutrition practices and have suggested practical nutrients levels required by different poultry species. This book has been prepared to serve as a reference and guide to different poultry farmers, poultry feed formulators, poultry stockmen, agricultural students taking courses on poultry nutrition, and other field researchers trying to find out some answers concerning various problems associated with poultry nutrition. This book can also be of great value in extension work, for teaching and to provide advice on various technical aspects concerning poultry feed processing industry and other related agribusiness activities.This book has ten chapters, each discussing on specific poultry nutrition topic. Chapter one and two mainly discuss on principles and basic components of poultry nutrition. Chapters three and four deal with various nutrition requirements for different poultry species (chickens, turkey, geese, and ducks). Chapter five and six deals with poultry feed nutrients deficiencies and contaminants respectively. Chapter seven, chapter eight and chapter nine discuss on poultry feed evaluation, future trend and development in poultry nutrition, biotechnology applications in poultry nutrition, respectively.

Download or read book Critical Role of Animal Science Research in Food Security and Sustainability written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 2050 the world's population is projected to grow by one-third, reaching between 9 and 10 billion. With globalization and expected growth in global affluence, a substantial increase in per capita meat, dairy, and fish consumption is also anticipated. The demand for calories from animal products will nearly double, highlighting the critical importance of the world's animal agriculture system. Meeting the nutritional needs of this population and its demand for animal products will require a significant investment of resources as well as policy changes that are supportive of agricultural production. Ensuring sustainable agricultural growth will be essential to addressing this global challenge to food security. Critical Role of Animal Science Research in Food Security and Sustainability identifies areas of research and development, technology, and resource needs for research in the field of animal agriculture, both nationally and internationally. This report assesses the global demand for products of animal origin in 2050 within the framework of ensuring global food security; evaluates how climate change and natural resource constraints may impact the ability to meet future global demand for animal products in sustainable production systems; and identifies factors that may impact the ability of the United States to meet demand for animal products, including the need for trained human capital, product safety and quality, and effective communication and adoption of new knowledge, information, and technologies. The agricultural sector worldwide faces numerous daunting challenges that will require innovations, new technologies, and new ways of approaching agriculture if the food, feed, and fiber needs of the global population are to be met. The recommendations of Critical Role of Animal Science Research in Food Security and Sustainability will inform a new roadmap for animal science research to meet the challenges of sustainable animal production in the 21st century.
