An economics experiment to study the values of Income over Feed Cost at various market prices of fattening sheep has been done at Sheep Experimental House of The Faculty of Animal Husbandry, UniversitasPadjadjaran. About 63 heads of Garut growing lambs were fattened for 90 days and fed by corn silage and concentrate. Feed consumption and average daily gain (ADG) were measured and Income over Feed Cost was analyzed at different selling prices: 40,000 IDR/kg live weight at general market, 60,000 IDR/ kg live weight at Aqiqah Market, and 80,000 IDR/kg live weight at Qurban Market. The result showed that ADG of lambs was 122 g/head/day resulting in selling prices of 4,882 IDR/head/day for general market, 7,323 IDR/head/day for Aqiqah market, and 9,764 IDR/head/day for Qurban market. If average feed cost was 3,508 IDR/head/day, its Income over Feed Cost was 1.374 IDR/head/day for general market, 3,825 IDR/head/day for Aqiqah market, and 6,256 IDR/head/day for Qurban market. At non-feed cost of 1,921 IDR, there was a potential loss of 547 IDR/head/day if selling price was only 40,000 IDR/kg live weight. Breakeven point could be reached at selling price of 44,500 IDR/kg live weight. It is concluded that fattened lambs is not profitably sold to general market but can be profitably sold to Aqiqah and Qurban markets.

Realizou-se um experimento para avaliar o desempenho zootécnico de diferentes linhagens comerciais de frangos de corte de uso comum no Brasil. Foram testadas as linhagens: Ross, Cobb, Hubbard, Arbor Acres e Isa Vedete avaliando-se os seguintes parâmetros zootécnicos: ganho de peso, consumo de ração e conversão alimentar. Foram utilizadas no teste um total de 3200 aves, distribuídas em cinco tratamentos com quatro repetições por tratamento, num Delineamento Completamente Casualizado, sendo os resultados comparados por um teste de médias. As aves foram alimentadas com ração à base de milho e soja, de uso convencional na integração, e abatidas aos 47 dias de idade. A linhagem Ross apresentou melhor conversão alimentar; com peso vivo relativamente baixo, contudo, esses resultados não se mostraram estatisticamente significativos (P>0,05). Abstract An experiment has been carried out to evaluate performance of the different commercial broiler lineages used in Brazil. The following lineages were tested: Ross, Cobb, Hubbard, Arbor Acres and Isa Vedette in order to evaluate the parameters: average daily gain, feed consumption, feed conversion. A total of 3200 birds were used in this test, distributed in five treatments with four repetitions per treatment, in a experimental design completely randomized. The results were compared by a Random Tukey test. The broilers were fed a corn , soymeal diet conventional used in the integration and slaughtered at 47 days of age. The Ross lineage showed a trend for a better performance, since this lineage, although yielding the lowest live weight, showed the lowest feed consumption, with the best feed conversion. However, these results have not proved statistically significant ( P>0.05).

Beef heifers of 232 and 205 kg average beginning weight, fed individually in a barn in two separate trials, were assigned at random to the following treatments: (A) basic barley–hay ration containing 3–1 ppm Cu and 25–32 ppm Zn; (B) basic ration supplemented to 11–12 ppm Cu; (C) basic ration supplemented to 63–66 ppm Zn. The Cu-supplemented ration resulted in an increased amount of Cu in the liver (P < 0.01). The Zn-supplemented ration resulted in a decreased amount of Cu in the liver in trial 1 (P < 0.05) but did not affect the level of Zn either in the liver or in the hair. No difference was found in average daily gain, feed consumption, efficiency of gain, or dressing percent of the heifers. It was shown that under a full-feed regime for 134 and 151 days, young animals (heifers) with Cu levels in the liver of 100 ppm or more on a dry weight basis can maintain normal metabolic balance when their ration is less than 4 ppm Cu and 33 ppm Zn. Barley and forage grown on Grey Wooded soil of the Peace River area, even though analytically low in Cu and Zn, are sufficient for heifers on full feed. In a third trial, beef steers were fed for 112 days on corn silage fortified with urea. Copper glycinate injections showed no effect on gain, although final concentrations of Cu in the liver were increased from 28 to 133 ppm on a dry weight basis. The corn silage contained 7 ppm Cu and had a Cu/Mo ratio of 6:6. Copper supplementation of corn silage rations is not warranted with this level of copper and a favorable Cu/Mo ratio.

The study determined the production performance and meat quality of broilers using different kinds and levels of bio-organic supplements. Four hundred fifty broiler chicks were randomly distributed to fifteen dietary treatments. Five birds in each treatment were used for meat quality evaluation following a 3 x 5 factorial in Completely Randomized Design (CRD). No significant differences were observed in the production performance of broilers supplemented with different kinds of bio-organic fertilizers except average daily gain and final live weight. Broilers supplemented with higher levels of bio-organic supplements including antibiotic significantly affected the production performance except for average daily water intake and dressing percentage. Feed cost per kilogram of broiler produced, feed cost per average daily gain and return above feed, chicks and supplement costs were not significantly affected by the different kinds of bio-organic supplements but significantly affected by the different levels of bio-organic supplements. Meat quality was significantly affected by the different kinds of bioorganic supplements except for taste and overall acceptability but was not significantly affected by increasing the levels of bio-organic supplements including those broilers supplemented with antibiotics in the drinking water. Better production performance was observed on broilers supplemented with different kinds and levels of bio-organic supplements in the drinking water but did not affect the meat quality.

The most perspective genotype in our region is Red White-belted breed, which has high performance both under pure breeding and under crossing with other breeds. The results of complex evaluation of Red White-belted swine of the herd bred in SE "RF Zoryane" breeding farm are presented. It was revealed that animals of the farm comply with elite class and the first class. The main breeding boars used at the farm belong to such genealogical lines: Deviz, Division, Dantist, Debut, and Dobryak. In the structure of the herd, the most numerous was Dobryak line, which part was 58.8%, Division, Debut, Devis lines – 11.8% per line, Dantist line – 5.8%. The herd sows belong to 7 families: Drabowka, Dekada, Dyktsiya, Doina, Dylema, Delta, Dogma. Average prolificacy of the sows was 10.0 piglets. Litter weight at 60 days’ age was 181.0 kg, and live weight of piglet – 19.0 kg. The performance of sows as prolificacy increased by 0.6 head on average. The complex appraisal index for the herd was 104.1 points. The average daily gain of the replacement pigs was 570 g. The highest daily gain was from five to six months – 611.2 g, and the figure of compactness index characterized a certain elongation of animals, increasing meat traits. Further work with Red White-belted breed aims at preserving and expanding the breeding base and genealogical structure, as well as increasing the reproductive, fattening and meat traits.

An experiment has been conducted to determine the effectiveness of growing broiler chickens when whole wheat grain has been included in the compound feed. The purpose of the research was to develop an appropriate scheme and dose for feeding whole wheat grain depending on the age of broilers, while observing the normative content of metabolic energy and nutrients in the diets, and to determine the economic effectiveness of rearing of broilers. To determine the effectiveness, data on live weight, growth rate, livability, uniformity of broiler population by live weight and variability of live weight of chickens have been studied. In the course of the work, the livability, average daily gain, feed conversion, homogeneity and variability coefficients, and the productivity index have been calculated. An increase in the live weight of broilers, as well as the rate of growth in pre-slaughter age when using whole grains in poultry diets, as well as a decrease in feed consumption per unit of live weight gain has been revealed. In conclusion, the economic effectiveness of broiler meat production has determined when whole grain has been included in diets. The use of whole wheat grain as an additive to the main diet in broiler feeding allowed to increase profits and increase the level of profitability. It has been found as a result of research that it is advisable to add whole wheat grain to the main diet for broilers at the age of 8–14 days in an amount of 5 % of the feed weight, at the age of 15–21 days – 15 %, at the age of 22–28 days – 20 %, at the age of 21–29 days – 30 % of grain without reducing the overall nutritional value of the diet.

AbstractA total of 384 piglets from a three-way cross Yorkshire ♂ × (Finnish Landrace ♂ × Dutch Landrace♀) ♀ in the live-weight range of 11 to 25 kg were used in a feeding trial. The effect of supplementary microbial phytase from Aspergillus niger var. Van Tieghem on performance (average daily gain (ADG), average daily food intake (ADFI) and food conversion ratio (FCR)) and apparent digestibility of total phosphorus (P), in comparison with a non-supplemented basal diet or a diet supplemented with one or two levels of monocalcium phosphate (MCP), were studied.The piglets were allotted to 12 blocks. Within each block, four experimental diets were offered ad libitum for a period of 4 weeks i.e. (1) basal diet; (2) basal diet + 1·0 g P, from MCP per kg diet; (3) basal diet + 1·9 g P, from MCP per kg diet; and (4) basal diet + 1450 phytase units (PTU) per kg diet. The diets, with added chromium III oxide as a marker, were cold pelleted without steam at a temperature not above 60°C to avoid a possible inactivation of the phytase. In all diets the ratio calcium: digestible P was intended to be constant.Adding 1450 PTU of Aspergillus niger phytase enhanced the apparent digestibility of P by proportionately 0·216 when compared with diet 1 and by proportionately 0·100 compared with diet 3. In addition, significantly higher ADG and ADFI and better FCR were noted in pigs receiving supplementary microbial phytase than in pigs on any other treatment. The content of digestible P of the diet with added phytase, however, zvas between the two levels of the diets with added MCP.

Sixteen blocks of eight littermate pigs were weaned at 3 weeks of age and each divided into four groups. Various levels of nutrition were applied to the pigs so that the four groups reached 20 kg. at 59, 68, 80 and 91 days of age, respectively.Only small differences were observed between groups in feed conversion ratio to 20 kg.; however, Group 4 required more feed per kg. gain than the three other groups.During the second period (20–90 kg.) the pigs in each group were divided into two sub-groups, which were on a high and a low plane of nutrition respectively. In both sub-groups the type of feeding before 20 kg. influenced the average daily gain and feed conversion ratio. The older the pigs were at 20 kg. the higher the daily gain and the lower the feed conversion ratio in the following period. There was an increase in daily feed intake with increased age at 20 kg. for pigs fed ad lib. during the second period.An increase in age at 20 kg. caused a significant decrease in thickness of backfat, a greater area of eye muscle and a smaller area of fat overlying muscle. For pigs fed ad lib. the area of eye muscle was significantly increased by a higher age at 20 kg. live-weight.
