This study was carried out in order to examine the chemical and fatty acid composition of raw cooked meat obtained from lambs raised under mothers or reared by artificial suckling with acidified milk replacers without polyunsaturated (PUFA) supplementation. Meat samples were taken twenty Gentile di Puglia male subjected following feeding treatments: control group received only maternal (MM, n.=6) while two groups an replacer (MR, n.=7) supplemented 10 ml/l a PUFA enriched oil (MR+PUFA,...
The possibility of using by-products the olive oil industry represents an interesting and profitable opportunity, especially for a region like Apulia, which plays leading role in production cake, nowadays called pomace (about 31,200 tons per year; 35 kg produced 100 treated olives), accounting more than third total national output. This type by-product is particular interest Mediterranean area since it could be potential alternative source nutrition small ruminants. Previous studies reported...
The aim of the study was to estimate influence artificial rearing and addition polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) an acidified milk replacer on productive performances quanti-qualitative characteristics carcass. Fifty one twin-born Gentile di Puglia lambs were subdivided into three homogenous groups (9 females 8 males) assigned following feeding treatments: maternal (MM); (MR); + 10 ml/l a mixture linseed fish oil rich in PUFA (MR+PUFA).Milk consumptions live weights recorded weekly. Seven...
The pollutant load was monitored in an intensive on-shore plant; evaluation especially concerned one basin,during a period of time which the water temperature (21-23°c), stocking density (25 kg/m3), loading and unloading flow (40 dm3/s) remained steady at highest values. results show that maximum pollution levels are characterized by high concentrations suspended organic materials, as well BOD5/COD rates; moreover, more than 60% solid waste consists particles with dimension ranging from 200...
The Podolian bovine represents an important example of Italian rustic breed, since it is able to live under difficult environmental conditions and takes advantage sources that could not be otherwise used, producing meat secondarily milk. “Podolica” breed diffused in the marginal areas south Italy especially reared Lucania also Apulia. It improved by means a rearing management set up agreement with traditional systems, using pastures feeding schemes aimed increase productions.This trial was...
The possible risk connected to GMO use in animal breeding leads reconsider production processes with special reference the of alternative protein sources able replace soy bean, whose accounts for about 60% GMO. aim trial was evaluate possibility bean field heavy lamb diet and study effect processing treatment (extrusion) on productive performances, energy metabolism parameters quanti-qualitative characteristics carcass meat.Twenty-four male Gentile di Puglia lambs were divided, when 42 days...
Long progestative treatments (from 9 to 12 days) have been widely used for estrus induction and synchronization in past. However, these worsen fertility comparison with naturally induced because they determine an hormonal disruption which affects the synchronicity between ovulation hampers sperm transport inside female reproductive tract (Pearce Robinson, 1985; Scaramuzzi et al., 1988). Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotrophin (PMSG) is administered, at different times, order improve performances;...
This study is part of a much wider research programme to evaluate the possibility producing valuable textile fibres, such as cashmere, from goat breeds reared in Italy. In order achieve this, we have used crossbreeding. The first stage consisted evaluating cashmere production F1 kids obtained by crossing white-haired Jonica does, which no secondary with Scottish Cashmere bucks. trial lasted one year starting March 2007, and took place Department Animal Production University Bari (Italy). We...
