The equine is a non herbivore ruminant that is able to fully provide its nutritional need by the grass intake. Equines show the cecum and colon region plenty developed as their principal fermentation site. Such process either happens in the non glandular stomach region, but the volatile fatty acids production is inferior then the production in the – hindgut. To meet the optimum use of the mix of ingredients, and to avoid excess there are harmful to the equine metabolism, […]

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of the early-life qualitative feed restriction on the performance, gastrintestinal tract characteristics and carcass of broilers. A total of 975 one-d-old “Ross” broiler chicks, 15 plots with 30 males each and 15 plots with 35 females each, was allotted to a completely randomized design in a 5 x 2 (restriction forms x sex) factorial arrangement, with three replicates per treatment. The treatments were: 1- no dilution (control); 2 – dilution […]
