Journal ArticleDOI
Milk quality, manufacturing properties and blood biochemical profile from dairy cows fed peas ( Pisum sativum L.) as dietary protein supplement
TL;DR: It is indicated that peas can replace soybean meal as protein source in diet of dairy cows without unfavourable effects on milk quality and cheesemaking properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Digestion characteristics and growth of steers fed a corn–grain based supplement compared to a de-oiled rice bran plus cottonseed supplement with or without extrusion processing
TL;DR: De-oiled rice bran plus whole cottonseed can effectively replace corn plus cottonseed meal as a supplement for growing cattle fed low-quality hay, and extruding the de-Oiled Rice branplus cottonseed supplement did not alter animal performance.

Heat—Moisture Treatment of Rapeseed Meal: Effect on Digestibility of the Diet, Voluntary Grass Silage Intake and Growth Rate of Ayrshire Bulls
Ilmo Aronen,Aila Vanhatalo +1 more
TL;DR: The enhanced liveweight gain of bulls on 00-RSM supplements was closely related to increased grass silage intake and the improved animal performance could not be explained solely by the reduced rumen degradability and thereby increased supply of rumen-undegraded feed protein to the intestine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of fiber source and particle size on chick performance and nutrient utilization
TL;DR: To determine the effect of dietary fiber source and particle size on day-old chick performance and nutrient digestibility, chicks performed better with fiber in their diet and MG was comparable to CEL.

Intake of Medusahead by Sheep: Influence of Supplements, Silica and Individual Animal Variation
TL;DR: The results suggest that supplementation programs can improve the production of grazing animals in targeted grazing treatments without depressing the ingestion of medusahead relative to unsupplemented (i.e., forced to ingest medusa head) animals.
