Two experiments were conducted to assess the nutritive value of crab meal for 200- and 300-kg weaned beef calves. In exp. 1, the addition of 10 or 20% soybean meal in a barley-based concentrate offered at up to 2 kg head−1 d−1 had a positive effect on growth rate and feed conversion efficiency of the 200-kg crossbred heifers fed hay ad libitum (P < 0.05). However, the incorporation of crab meal at levels of 15 and 35% of the concentrate mixture reduced (P < 0.05) feed consumption and growth. Levels of both 15 and 35% crab meal in the barley concentrate appeared to require an adaptation period by the heifers since feed intake and the weight gains improved with time. In exp. 2, steer calves weighing 200 or 300 kg were fed up to 1% of body weight of concentrate mixtures containing 20% soybean or 35% crab meal. Crab meal inclusion at 35% of the grain ration resulted in reduced feed intake and performance by the calves with most of this negative effect eliminated after a period of adaptation.

Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of feeding fababean meal diets to laying hens. Body weight, feed consumption, egg production, egg weight, eggshell strength, and hatchability of eggs were the parameters recorded. In exp. 1, where two types of hens (Single Comb White Leghorn (SCWL) and broiler breeders) were maintained in floor pens, hens fed a diet containing fababean meal had lower final body weights, lower average egg weight, and lower percentage hatchability of eggs than those fed soybean meal. Feed utilization, egg production, and eggshell strength were not significantly affected by diets. In exp. 2, in which SCWL were maintained in cages, hens fed diets containing 29.75% fababean meal required more feed per dozen eggs, had lower egg weights and had lower percentage hatchability than hens fed diets containing 7.20% soybean meal. Body weights, feed per bird per day, egg production, and eggshell strength were not significantly affected by diets. Supplemental dietary lysine improved feed conversion and percent hatchability of eggs for hens fed the fababean diets. The combined number of early dead chicks and infertile eggs was higher for eggs from the hens fed fababean meal diets than those fed soybean meal diets.

Qualitative Characteristics

European Union's policy to promote the production of "bio-fuel" from "energy plants" creates a favourable perspective for rapeseed production in Greece. Rapeseed oil is used to produce "bio-diesel" and after its extraction, a high-protein meal results. Greece is a net importer of protein feeds, which means that a great opportunity arises for the local animal industry. It must be noted that the varieties of rapeseed that are currently used ("canola" or "double zero") contain only minimum amounts of the toxic factors (erucic acid and glucosinolates) of older varieties. In this study, we present: a) the oil extraction method which can affect the quality of canola meal, b) the chemical composition, the nutritive value and the qualitative characteristics of canola meal's nitrogen fraction, c) the use of canola meal in cattle rations and the productivity of cattle receiving these rations and d) the results of a simulation concerning the use and the profitability of canola meal under Greek conditions. Canola meal has a lower nutritional value compared to soybean meal, but not compared to cottonseed and sunflower meals. It presents some interesting features, namely a high methionine, calcium and phosphorus content and significant amounts can be included in balanced cattle rations (15-20% of dry matter), without any negative effect on feed consumption or animal productivity. Canola meal use in cattle rations is profitable when its price is less than 70-75% ofthat of soybean meal.

AbstractThe aim of the study was to assess the effect of fermented dried soybean (FSBM) and/or fermented rapeseed meal (FRSM) in diets for weaned piglets on production results, nutrient digestibility, gastrointestinal tract histology, and the composition of the gut microbiota. Piglets in the control group received standard diets with soybean meal. Animals in all experimental groups received diets in which a portion of the soybean meal was replaced: in group FR—8% FRSM; in group FR/FS—6% FRSM and 2% FSBM; in group FS/FR—2% FRSM and 6% FSBM and in group FS—8% FSBM. The use of 8% FRSM or 6% FRSM and 2% FSBM in the piglet diets had a positive effect on average daily gains. Piglets from the FR and FR/FS groups had the highest feed conversion rate. Group FS/FR and FS piglets had significantly lower mortality and lower incidence of diarrhoea. Piglets fed a diet with the fermented components, in particular with 8% FRSM or 6% FRSM and 2% FSBM, exhibited a positive effect on the microbiological composition and histology of intestines, which resulted in improved nutrient digestibility coefficients (ATTD and AID).

And Performance

Soy protein concentrate improves nutrient utilization and growth performance compared to soybean meal, and diets with a low crude protein (CP) level decreases diarrhoea. The objectives were to (1) test a low CP diet based on different soy products, and (2) to test a very-low CP diet (15.1%) with amino acids (AA) on diarrhoea and productivity. A total of 5,635 weaned pigs (~28 days), were assigned to five dietary treatments; PC (positive control): Standard CP levels (192, 189, 191 g/kg CP) with 2500 ppm ZnO; NC (negative control): Same as PC without ZnO; SP (Soy protein concentrate): Low CP levels (176, 174, 191 g/kg CP); SB (Soybean meal): Low CP levels (177, 176, 191 g/kg CP); and XLA (X-low CP + AA): Very low CP levels (154, 151, 191 g/kg CP) with AA. The PC and XLA diets reduced diarrhoea by 41 and 61%, respectively, compared to the NC group, while no difference between SB and SP were observed. The XLA diet reduced feed intake and daily gain compared with PC and NC, where SP, SB, and XLA had a poorer feed conversion compared with PC. Conclusively, the SP and SB low-protein diets did not reduce diarrhoea or growth performance, whereas the XLA diet decreased both diarrhoea and performance.

A completely randomized design (CRD) was used with a total of 160 day-old commercial broiler chicks which were randomly assigned to four treatment groups with five replicates into 20 pens and brooded. Feed and water were provided ad libitum. From day old chick to 21 day, the broiler chicks were fed Diet 1 (5% fish meal and 25% soybean meal, 1: 5), Diet 2 (3% fish meal and 30% soybean meal, 1: 10) was served as control diet, Diet 3 (2% fish meal and 30% soybean meal, 1: 15) and Diet 4 (1.5% fish meal and 30% soybean meal, 1: 20). From day 22 onwards, the broiler chicks were fed finisher diet, Diet 1 (5% fish meal and 25% soybean meal, 1: 5), Diet 2 (2.6% fish meal and 26% soybean meal, 1: 10, serve as control diet, Diet 3 (1.8% fish meal and 27% soybean meal, 1: 15) and Diet 4 (1.3% fish meal and 26% soybean meal, 1: 20). Weekly performances and mortality are measured. By feeding FS5 diet (5% fish meal and 25% soybean meal), the heavier body weight, increased feed consumption and feed conversion ratio of broiler chicks was observed when compared to that of other treatment groups. Conclusively, it is obvious that the ratio of dietary fish meal to soybean meal 1: 5 (FS5) improved body weight but the lower feed efficiency of this diet should be considered in economical point of view.

Electronic monitoring is more and more widespread and affects many employees around the globe. The current meta analysis collected data of 59 independent samples (with 223 effect sizes) to estimate the effect of electronic monitoring on job satisfaction, stress, and performance. A random-effects model indicated a small negative effect of monitoring on job satisfaction, r=-.09, and a small positive effect on stress, r=.12. There was no relationship with performance, r=-.01. Even if the effects of monitoring on job satisfaction and stress are small, taking the large number of employees who are monitored for several hours a day into account, these effects may have a severe and negative impact on employees’ well-being. Performance maintenance is the main justification for the use of electronic monitoring, but the non-existing relationship of monitoring with performance questions the validity of this justification.

There is an interest in replacing soybean meal with locally produced ingredients in livestock feeds. Narbon vetch is resistant to unfavorable climatic and soil conditions, common pests, and has a favorable nutritional profile. The effect of substitution of soybean meal with 0% (V0), 5% (V5), 10% (V10), and 20% (V20) inclusion of Narbon vetch on growth curve parameters, daily body weight gain (DBWG), daily feed intake (DFI), feed conversion efficiency (FCE), and residual feed intake (RFI) was investigated in 47 Duroc × Iberian barrows in 16 periods (a total of 125 d). DFI and DBWG were reduced (p < 0.05) up to four weeks after introduction of the novel feed in V20 and V10. Small, mostly nonsignificant differences existed between treatments in FCE and RFI. However, because of accumulative small differences in feed efficiency between the four diets, pigs in V0 reached the highest BW, and pigs in V20 reached the lowest BW on a similar feed intake. Economic implications of Narbon vetch inclusion depend on the extra amount of feed required and associated feed costs, and on the costs of additional days on-farm required to reach a given slaughter weight.

The provision of creep feed to suckling pigs is considered to stimulate early food intake as well as health post weaning. However, Barnett et al. (1989) found no effects of creep feeding on post-weaning performance. Research by Pajor et al. (1986) indicated that there is a high variability in creep feed intake both among and within litters. This variability in creep feed intake is probably the main cause of disagreement on the effects of creep feed provision. The objective of the present study was to assess the effect of creep feed consumption on individual food intake characteristics and performance of group-housed weaned pigs. Chromic oxide was added to the creep feed to identify piglets that consumed food during the suckling period. In the piggery, IVOG®-feeding stations were used to measure individual food intake after weaning.

An experiment was conducted during the late fall and winter months with 96 Yorkshire barrows and gilts to study the effects on pig performance of feeding corn-soybean meal (SBM) and lysine-HCl (0.1%) supplemented corn-SBM-Tower rapeseed meal (RSM) and corn-SBM-Candle RSM diets, in the form of mash (corn was medium-ground) and steam pellets. Average daily gain (ADG), feed intake, efficiency of feed conversion (feed to gain ratio, F/G) and carcass backfat thickness were measured in pigs reared from 23 kg to 91 kg liveweight. The energy level in the RSM diets was not adjusted to equal that in the corn-SBM diet. Pigs fed Tower RSM had a lower (P < 0.01) feed intake and backfat thickness and pigs fed Candle RSM had a lower (P < 0.01) ADG and feed intake and higher (P < 0.01) F/G compared to the pigs fed SBM. The pigs fed corn-SBM-Tower RSM had a higher (P < 0.01) ADG and feed intake and lower (P < 0.01) F/G ratio than those fed Candle RSM diets. Steam pelleting of the corn-SBM and corn-SBM-RSM diets improved ADG, feed intake and F/G of the pigs, with the effects being greatest for the RSM diets.
