In this study, 192 female broilers (21 days old) were allocated to four dietary treatments: a control diet [CT], and three experimental diets containing 25 g/kg alfalfa meal [AM25], 50 [AM50], 75 [AM75]. Final body weight average daily feed intake of birds significantly higher in supplemented birds, with linear response inclusion seen for gain (P < 0.05). Serum triglycerides comparatively lower AM50 group than CT The total gastrointestinal tract indices AM75 sequentially AM25 treatments...
A 39-day field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of grape marc (GM) feeding on sheep productivity, health, and environmental sustainability. Forty merino were divided into two dietary groups, each having five replications (n = 4 sheep/replication). Experimental diet consisted of: (i) control: 55% lucerne hay + 40% wheat grain 5% faba bean; (ii) GM treatment: control with 20% replaced by a dry matter (DM) basis. The treatment contained 2–10% higher phytochemical contents than...
To investigate the effects of microwave (MW) treatment on hays nutritive value, five types hay (50 g) were treated with MW for 0 (control), 20, 40, 60, and 80 s (0, 440, 880, 1320, 1760 kJ kg−1 energy, respectively) analyzed value prior to scanning by an electron microscope observe microstructure changes. The dry matter (DM) % increased increasing time (p < 0.001). improved DM digestible organic in recorded from lucerne (60 s), wheat (40 canola (20 s) 0.001), which might have been due...
Microwave (MW) treatment has been suggested to improve forage hays' nutritive value and sheep growth performance. However, the extent which MW-treated hay affects apparent digestibility nitrogen partitioning is not documented. This study examined potential use MW as a novel thermal intake, digestibility, utilisation of sheep. A total 24 merino rams (18 months age, 42 ± 2.0 kg initial body weight) were randomly divided into four dietary treatments: Control lucerne (CLH), (MLH), wheat (CWH),...
AbstractMicrowave (MW) treatment has been suggested to improve forage hays' nutritive value and sheep growth performance. However, the extent which MW treated hay affects apparent digestibility nitrogen partitioning is not documented. This study examined potential use as a novel thermal intake, digestibility, utilisation of sheep. Total 24 merino ram (18 months age, 42 ± 2 kg initial body weight) were randomly divided into four dietary treatments: Control lucerne (CLH), (MLH), wheat (CWH),...
This study investigated the comparative effects of conventional hot-air oven heating (CHO), microwave (MW) and sealing effect on nutritive value lucerne hay. Equivalent energy (125 J.g−1) was applied with a 1.1 kW MW for 60 seconds (s) or 3.06 CHO 350 s. The required equivalent level measured based preliminary calibration trial. Two method (CHO MW) condition (SC) as treatment factors in this study. A two-way analysis variance (P < 0.05) used to measure different some properties dry matter...
Dielectric properties of any particular material will determine the level microwave (MW) heating. Therefore, measurement dielectric MW treatment subject materials is necessary. This study investigated six roughages and three concentrate animal feeds across frequency range 1 × 109 to 5 Hz. Six groups, named control (at equilibrium moisture constant), oven dried (0% moisture), 25% added, 50% 75% 100% added groups were prepared for study. Three separate replications five observations each...
