Book excerpt: The objective of this research was to study the optimization of the use of Brassica napus canola meal (CM) in swine diets. Chapter one had introduced the field of study, which helped to generate the research questions. Chapter two provided review information on means and techniques of improving the nutritive value of CM. Chapter three presents the hypothesis and objectives of the study. Chapter four studied the effect of high CM inclusion on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and fecal bacteria in piglets fed corn or wheat-based diets. During phase-I, pigs fed wheat-CM had higher feed efficiency (G:F) than pigs fed corn-soybean meal (SBM) diet. The inclusion of CM influenced crude protein (CP), energy digestibility, and fecal microbial community, without affecting voluntary feed intake and body weight (BW) gain. Chapter five studied phosphorus (P) digestibility. Results indicated that feeding dehulled canola meal (DCM) increased apparent (ATTD) and standardized total tract digestibility (STTD) of P in pigs of different BW. For growing pigs, the ATTD and STTD of P were greater for DCM (42.4 and 46.1%) than for regular canola meal (RCM; 32 and 35.7%) and coarse canola meal (CCM; 24.5 and 28.4%). In chapter six, the effect of tail-end dehulling of CM on apparent (AID) and standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of amino acids (AA) when fed to growing pigs were determined. Dehulling increased the SID AA content of DCM compared to RCM by an average of 9%. Chapter seven investigated the effect of dietary supplementation of xylanase on a wheat-based diet containing CM. No effect on growth performance was found. However, a protein-xylanase effect on the ATTD of NDF (P

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four experiments, involving 140 pigs in performance and digestibility studies, were conducted to evaluate canola meal (CM) in comparison to soybean meal (SBM) as a protein supplement for young growing pigs. In experiments 1, 2 and 3, CM replaced 0, 50 or 100% of the SBM supplement on an isonitrogenous basis in isocaloric wheat-based diets for pigs fed from 14 to 32 kg. The effects of different lysine levels (0.74 or 0.84% total lysine) on performance were also studied. Feed intake and daily gains of pigs were reduced (P0.05) when CM replaced 100% of the SBM supplement. Feed to gain ratios were similar (P0.05) for all diets. Pigs fed diets formulated to contain 0.84% total lysine had nonsignificant (P>0.05) improved gains compared to pigs fed diets formulated to contain 0.74% total lysine. In experiment 4, pigs initially weighing 6 kg were fed a prestarter diet until an average final weight of 14 kg. Following this, a starter diet was fed for the weight range of 14 to 32 kg. Four isocaloric diets were formulated for each part of the experiment. CM and synthetic lysine replace o, 35, 69 or 82% of the SBM in the prestarter diets whereas CM alone replaced 0, 32, 51 or 100% of the SBM on an isonitrogenous basis in the starter diets. The prestarter diets were formulated to contain similar available lysine levels. Pigs fed the prestarter diets had similar (P>0.05) feed intakes, daily gains and feed to gain ratios. However, pigs fed the wheat-SBM starter diet had improved (P0.05) feed intakes and daily gains compared to pigs fed the CM supplemented diets. Overall, pigs fed wheat-SBM diets from 6 to 32 kg in experiment 4 had improved (P
Download or read book The Effect of Feeding Canola Meal on Growth Performance and Nutrient Digestibility in Pigs written by Nijitha Sanjayan and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three experiments were conducted to determine the nutritive value of black Brassica napus (BBN), yellow Brassica juncea (YBJ) and yellow Brassica napus (YBN) in pig diets. In experiment 1, effect of multi-carbohydrase supplementation on SID of AA in BBN, YBJ and YBN was evaluated in growing pigs. The YBJ had similar SID of AA to BBN and enzyme did not affect SID of most of AA. The second and third experiments investigated the effect of high dietary inclusion of BBN and YBJ on weaned pig performance and nutrient digestibility with enzyme supplementation. The studies showed that weaned pigs can be fed diets containing up to 250 g/kg of either BBN or YBJ. Enzyme supplementation improved the nutrient digestibility. In conclusion, BBN and YBJ had similar digestible nutrient contents and there were no detrimental effects detected when pigs were fed up to 250 g/kg of BBN and YBJ in weaned pigs.

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.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current analysis was conducted to evaluate the potential of nutritional, manure and animal husbandry practices for mitigating methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) - i.e. non-carbon dioxide (CO2) - GHG emissions from livestock production. These practices were categorized into enteric CH4, manure management and animal husbandry mitigation practices. Emphasis was placed on enteric CH4 mitigation practices for ruminant animals (only in vivo studies were considered) and manure mitigation practices for both ruminant and monogastric species. Over 900 references were reviewed; simulation and life cycle assessment analyses were generally excluded
