Sorghum Grain

In three experiments, a total of 112 pigs were individually fed sorghum grain-soybean meal diets based on either high protein grain (10.9 to 13.3 per cent crude protein, air dry basis) or low protein grain (6.5 to 7.4 per cent crude protein, air dry basis). Soybean meal was incorporated in the diets at four levels-16.6, 13.8, 10.7, and 7.4 per cent. In experiment 1 the experimental diets were fed from weaning to 86 kg liveweight. In experiment 2 the experimental diets were supplied from weaning to 45 kg liveweight with a common standard diet being provided from 45 kg liveweight to slaughter, In experiment 3 a common standard diet was supplied from weaning to 45 kg liveweight. The experimental diets were commenced at this liveweight and continued until slaughter. Level of protein in the grain had no significant effect on growth rate or feed efficiency in any experiment, but in experiment 2 the mean eye muscle index of the pigs receiving the high protein sorghum diets was significantly greater than that of the pigs receiving the low protein sorghum diets. As level of soybean meal in the diet decreased, there was a general tendency for growth rate and feed efficiency to decrease. In experiment 1, growth rate and feed efficiency were lower in pigs receiving the 10.7 and 7.4 per cent soybean meal diets, but only prior to a liveweight of 45 kg. In experiment 2, each reduction in level of soybean meal resulted in a reduction in growth rate and feed efficiency prior to 45 kg liveweight. There was no difference between groups from 45 kg to slaughter, when all pigs received the same ration. In experiment 3, which commenced at 45 kg liveweight, growth rate and feed efficiency were reduced only when the level of soybean meal was lowered to 7.4 per cent.

Two experiments are reported. In the first experiment, 48 Large White pigs were individually fed from 22.2 to 86.5 kg bodyweight, with rations containing either sorghum or barley in combination with 16.6, 13.8, 10.7, or 7.4 per cent soybean meal. Type of grain did not affect growth rate or feed efficiency but carcase measurements indicated that the barley-fed pigs were leaner. There were no significant differences in growth rate or feed efficiency between the 16.6 per cent and 13.8 per cent soybean meal rations before 45 kg bodyweight or between the 16.6 per cent, 13.8 per cent, or 10.7 per cent soybean meal rations after 45 kg bodyweight, but all rations containing the three higher levels of soybean meal gave significantly better growth rate and feed efficiency than the rations containing 7.4 per cent soybean meal for both bodyweight ranges. Final results showed no significant differences between the 16.6 per cent and the 13.8 per cent soybean meal rations in growth rate, feed efficiency, or carcase measurements of pigs receiving these rations, but growth data and carcase measurements were poorer with the two lower levels of soybean meal supplementation. In the second experiment, 40 Berkshire pigs were individually fed barley or sorghum grain with 15 per cent soybean meal or 20 per cent of one of three meat and bone meals. Pigs were fed from 25.8 to 74.0 kg bodyweight. The sorghum-based rations gave significantly better growth rates and feed efficiencics than the barley-based rations after 45 kg bodyweight, but carcase appraisal indicated greater lean content in the barley-fed pigs. Growth rates and feed efficiencies obtained with rations containing two of the meat and bone meals were significantly (P<0.05) less than values obtained with the rations containing soybean meal. Pigs fed the third meat and bone meal grew only slightly more slowly than those fed soybean meal. Type of supplement had no effect on carcase measurements.

Two trials involving a total of 120 Yorkshire SPF swine were conducted to evaluate the effect on live performance and carcass characteristics of replacing supplemental protein from 44% soybean meal (SM) with that from raw ground soybeans (RGS). Levels of 10.80, 16.45 and 22.15% RGS in the grower diets caused slower growth rates and reduced feed efficiency compared with those of pigs that did not receive RGS in their diets (P < 0.05). Although the results were not as consistent as in the grower phase, levels of 11.25 and 15.15% RGS in the finisher diets caused slower growth rate. Pelleting of a diet containing 3.65% RGS resulted in improved feed efficiency compared with that of the same diet unpelleted, when fed in the grower phase (P < 0.05). The area of the loin eye muscle tended to become smaller as the level of RGS in the diet increased. Treatment had no consistent effect on the other measures of carcass quality studied.

Citrulline Synthesis

1. Citrulline synthesis was measured in mitochondria from rats fed on a standard diet, a high-protein diet, or on glucose. 2. With NH4Cl as the nitrogen source the rate of citrulline synthesis was higher in mitochondria from rats fed on a high-protein diet than in those from rats fed on a standard diet. When rats were fed solely on glucose the rate of synthesis of citrulline from NH4Cl was very low. 3. With glutamate as the nitrogen source the relative rates of citrulline synthesis were much lower than when NH4Cl was present, but similar adaptive changes occurred. 4. The activity of the mitochondrial glutamate-transporting system increased two to three times on feeding rats on a high-protein diet, but the Km for glutamate was unchanged. 5. Adaptive changes in certain intramitochondrial enzymes were also measured. 6. The results were interpreted to indicate that when an excess of substrate was present, citrulline synthesis from NH4Cl was rate-limited by the intramitochondrial concentration of N-acetyl-glutamate, but citrulline synthesis from glutamate was rate-limited primarily by the activity of the glutamate-transporting system.

High protein wheat was the sole cereal in 20 and 25 per cent crude protein broiler starter diets. On the. 25 per cent protein diet, performance was maximized without amino acid supplementation. Using high protein wheat in 20 per cent protein diets, growth rate was improved by l-lysine supplementation of 0.3 per cent. However, this growth rate was not at a maximum level. Some other dietary factor was necessary, and this did not appear to be essential amino acids, singly or in combination.

Thirty six individually-fed pigs were used in a within-litter comparison of the 6 treatments of a 3 × 2 factorial experiment. The pigs were about 9 weeks old at the start and were slaughtered as their individual weights reached about 200 lb.Three types of basal diet were given with and without a supplement of CuSO4.5H2O included at 0·1% (250 p.p.m. added Cu).The diets were based on (1) barley and fish meal, with 17% crude protein for pigs up to 103 lb. live-weight and 15·4 % from then on, (2) maize and soya (extracted soya bean meal), with about the same levels of protein and (3) maize and soya, but with only 13·4% crude protein for pigs up to 103 lb. and 11·9% for pigs of 103 lb. to 200 lb. Daily feed allowances were determined from a fixed scale based on live-weight.Pigs given the high-protein maize-soya diets grew more rapidly, required less feed per lb. gain and had fatter carcasses than those given the barley-fish meal diets. This was probably because of the higher TDN content of the maize-soya mixture.Pigs given the low-protein maize-soya diets grew less rapidly, required more feed per lb. gain and had fatter carcasses with smaller ‘eye’ muscles than those receiving the high-protein maize-soya diets, these being the usual effects of an inadequate supply of total protein or of an essential amino acid.CuSO4.5H2O4 added as 0·1% of each of the three types of diet improved growth rate before 103 lb. live-weight but had no consistent effect on feed conversion efficiency. Between 103 lb. and slaughter the copper sulphate did not affect performance on the barley-fish meal or high-protein maize-soya diet, but in the low-protein maize-soya diet it reduced feed conversion efficiency and rate of gain by 5%. Although this interaction was not statistically significant it agrees with an observation made in Florida and warrants further investigation.

Four groups of five Holstein heifer calves were fed calf starter ad libitum from the 5th through the 16th wk. Diets differed in crude protein (CP) content (9.3, 17.8, and 22.2% CP) and were compared to a 21% CP, high-fat milk replacer (HFMR) during 28-day periods. Voluntary intake was not affected by starter CP content. However, increasing dietary CP content increased gains and feed efficiency. Gains were similar between the high-protein starter and the HFMR. When calves in one group received a different starter each day, voluntary consumption of the low-protein starter was reduced. In the second experiment, the HFMR and a starter containing either 10.6, 15.3, or 22.8% CP were fed to Holstein bull calves from wk 2 through 4. The starters were each fed for 21-day periods to each group of calves after weaning from HFMR. A fourth group received a starter of different CP content each day. A fifth group received only HFMR for the entire period. After the 4th wk, calves fed HFMR consumed less dry matter (DM) but gained weight most rapidly. Average daily gains were increased by the medium- and high- over the low-protein calf starter (P < 0.05). Feed efficiency was subsequently reduced by this diet. A ration containing no more than 18% CP was satisfactory for dairy-replacement heifers. However, additional studies should examine the feasibility of marketing 136-kg calves on high-energy calf starters.

Red Tilapia

Abstract Red tilapia is kind of freshwater culture fish is quite popular because it has several advantages compared with other types of freshwater fish. To fullfil the demand of red tilapia can be overcome by cultivation. Effort to increase the production of red tilapia is to improve the quality of feed. The purpose of this study was to try the effect of the use of sword bean seed meal on the growth rate, survival rate and feed efficiency of red tilapia. The research method is experimental with completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments and four replications. The treatments used were: (A) sword beans seed meal at 0% and soybean meal by 50%, (B) 10% sword beans seed meal and 40% soybean meal, (C) 20% sword beans seed meal and 30% soybean meal, (D) 30% sword beans seed meal and 20% soybean meal and (E) 40% sword beans seed meal and 10% soybean meal. The main parameters that measured were growth, survival rate and feed efficiency. Secondary parameters measured were water quality. Analysis of the data using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and to know the difference between treatments using Duncan's Multiple Range Test. Results showed the administration of sword bean seed meal on feed rations provide a significantly different effect (p<0.05) on the growth and feed efficiency but not significantly on survival rate of red tilapia (p>0.05 ). Highest daily growth rate obtained on treatment B on feed containing 10% of sword bean meal (1.20 %) was significantly different than treatment A (1.02 %), C (0.88 %) , D (0.85 %) and E (0.75 %) . Lowest daily growth rate was treatment E that significantly different with treatment A and B but not significantly different with treatments C and D. Highest feed efficiency obtained on treatment B (30.29 %) was not significantly different than treatment A (27.56 %), C (25.95 %) and D (27.78 %). Lowest feed efficiency was treatment E (17.84 %) significantly different than treatment B. Subtitution of sword bean seed meal in feed rations gave result that was not significantly different effect on the level of survival of red tilapia. Water quality of red tilapia rearing media was temperature range between 25-28° C, pH 7-8, dissolved oxygen 2-5 mg/L and ammonia 1.5 to 3.0 mg/L.

Oats (Avena sativa L. cv. Hinoats, 14.6% crude protein, 4.66 Mcal GE/kg) were tested in digestion and feeding trials with growing–finishing pigs from 23 to 91 kg body weight. Up to 57 kg, groups of six crossbred pigs (3 male, 3 female) in a 3 × 3 factorial experiment were fed supplemented diets of Hinoats meal, Hinoats pellets or 2/3 Hinoats:1/3 wheat, each with one of three supplements: either 0.2% lysine plus 0.05% methionine, or with half levels of these amino acids plus 2% soybean meal, or 6% soybean meal. At 57 kg, the pigs were assigned from each grower ration to one of three finisher rations, these being the three grower rations supplemented only with amino acids. Feeding was allowed for three 1-h periods daily up to 57 kg body weight and for two 1-h periods thereafter. Pigs of 23–57 kg fed pellets had greater daily feed intakes than pigs fed meal or the meal ration containing wheat (1.90, 1.70, 1.77 kg, respectively) and grew faster (0.69, 0.60, 0.60 kg/day, respectively). From 57 kg body weight, performance was not affected by previous diet but pigs fed pellets ate more and grew faster than the others. Hinoats rations were efficiently utilized by the pigs. In separate digestion trials, Hinoats energy and protein were found to be 72 and 82% digestible, respectively.

The use of high-protein soybean meal in broiler diets provided for 38 days of fattening obtaining live weight of 2,336 g, average daily gain in live weight of 60.4 g, which is higher than in the control group by 135 g and 3.5 g, respectively. The highest rates were observed in chickens that consumed compound feed with high protein soybean meal, which was characterized by a high content of crude protein (47.0%) and good protein solubility (77.8%). It is proved that the use of soybean meal with a high content of SP 47.0% versus 42.0%, increases the live weight of chickens and reduces feed costs per 1 kilo of live weight gain.
