Quality Of Milk

Food behavior has a significant influence on all areas of animal use, such as the growth and development of young animals, the quality of milk and meat, and the productivity of cows. The most importance in agricultural ethology is the study of food, group and reproductive behavior. The purpose of the research was to consider the characteristics of behavior and productivity of cows and young animals against the background of the use of feed protein additive Biovitel. It has been found that the time of ruminating, ruminating periods and chewing of feed was higher in high-yielding cows than in low-yielding ones. During the day 17,3 ruminant periods of 28,8 minutes have been registered in highly productive cows, and 15,3 and 35,5 minutes have been registered in cows with average productivity, respectively. The ruminant process in all animals is most active between 21,00 and 24,00 hours, as well as between 2,00 and 5,00 hours, regardless of the season of the year. In high-yielding cows reactions to receiving silage, hay, and straw were somewhat more frequent in comparison with low-yielding ones. It has been found that food activity had a biger influence on the productivity of steers than physical activity. The time spent on sleep has decreased with age and had the same tendency as the growth rate. The time spent on physical activity also has increased with age, but it did not significantly affect the indicators of body weight gain. During all periods of growing the steers that received the feed protein additive Biovitel have been characterized by calm behavior and spent more time eating feed. It has been conducted by the researches and the nature of the results obtained confirm the validity of the use of Biovitel feed additive for the purpose of positive influence on the behavior, productivity of cows, growth and development of young cattle.

Positive Effect

On the basis of the "Komarova" farm (Magadan, Magadan region), the effect of introducing a new non-traditional component feed additive of plant origin into the diets of young cattle was studied. The research was carried out during the stall period. For the experiment there were taken four groups of animals (14-16 months of age) divided at random in accordance with the genotype into control and experimental groups of ten animals each. The first two groups (control, experiment) included purebred Holstein bulls, the other two – hybrids of the 1st generation (1/2 Holstein × 1/2 Herefords). For the experimental groups, the main diet was supplemented with a component feed additive consisting of cedar elfin (Mountain pine) flour and lichens (alpine cladonia (Cladonia alpestris), Icelandic cetraria (Cetraria islandica)). The results of the experiment has shown that the feed additive, consisting of 120 g of cedar elfin needle flour and 50 g of lichen flour (80% of Cladonia alpestris and 20% of Cetraria islandica), has a positive effect on the intensification of metabolic processes in the animals. The digestibility of crude protein increased by 1.29-4,19 g (1.7-5.6 %); that of the organic matter – by 6.65-8.90 g (11.0-14.3 %); NFE (nitrogen-free extracts) – by 7.80-9.18 g (14.14-15.70 %). An increase in the digestibility of feed nutrients had a positive effect on an increase in live weight gain by 0.60-3.0 g (1.35-5.93 %). An increase in feed conversion was 0.24-6.8 MJ (0.20-6.74 %); feed protein – by 0.02-0.09 g (1.22-6.17 %). Crossbred bulls turned out to be more responsive to changes in the ration of feeding and showed better results in all studied parameters. The effectiveness of using the additive is due to the fact that the raw material for the production is obtained from wild plants growing in nature in sufficiently large volumes. They do not require significant costs for harvesting and preparation for feeding.

Изучен метаболизм азотсодержащих соединений в организме телят-молочников и бычков на откорме при включении в рационы кормовой добавки N-карбомилглутамат (NCG). Введение в основной рацион NCG приводит к снижению уровня свободного аммиака в плазме крови телят-молочников в 2 раза относительно контрольной группы. У молодняка на откорме в опытных группах концентрация аммиака в плазме крови была меньше на 20,9% в 1 группе и на 54,2% во II группе. При этом в опытной группе телят-молочников зафиксировано повышение прироста массы тела на 5,01% по сравнению с контролем. Введение кормовой добавки NCG способствовало переводу токсичного аммиака из плазмы крови, вследствие активизации орнитинового цикла в клетках печени и стенке рубца с образованием избытка карбомоилфосфата и синтеза эндогенного аргинина. Экзогенный аргинин из корма может быть заменен на NCG в рационе у жвачных животных. Добавление NCG в корм или ЗЦМ позволит улучшить утилизацию аммиака, повысить эффективность использования белка рациона, устойчивость к стрессам и будет являться фактором повышения продуктивности молодняка крупного рогатого скота. The influence of the metabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds in the body of dairy calves and calves on fattening was studied when the feed additive N-carbomylglutamate (NCG) was included in the diets. The introduction of the NCG feed supplement into the main diet leads to a decrease in the level of free ammonia in the blood plasma of dairy calves by 2 times compared to the control group. In fattened calves in the experimental groups, the concentration of ammonia in the blood plasma was less by 20.9% in group 1 and by 54.2% in group II. At the same time, in the experimental group of dairy calves, an increase in body weight gain was recorded by 5.01% compared to the control. The introduction of the feed additive NSP contributed to the transfer of toxic ammonia from the blood plasma, due to the activation of the ornithine cycle in the liver cells and the scar wall with the formation of an excess of carbomoylphosphate and the synthesis of endogenous arginine. Exogenous arginine from feed can be replaced with NCG in the diet of ruminants. The addition of NCG to feed or ZCM will improve the utilization of ammonia, increase the efficiency of the use of protein in the diet, resistance to stress, and will be a factor in increasing the productivity of young cattle.

One of the ways to increase meat resources is to improve the condition of livestock on farms in the Russian Federation. This is due to the fact that when the fatness of the animal increases, the meat yield in the carcass increases. The purpose of the researches was to establish the features of the infl uence of the feed protein additive Biovitel on the growth and development of steers of Hereford breed. In order to achieve this purpose two groups of steers-analogs of Hereford breed (control and experimental) at the age of 6 months per 10 head in each have been formed. The time of the experiment was: the preparatory period of 22 days and the main one 275 days. Steers of the control group have received the main farm ration, and steers of the experimental group have received the main ration and feed protein additive Biovitel for 30 days with 10-days interval at the dose of 100 g per head during the sixth month. The results of researches on the infl uence of the feed protein additive Biovitel on the growth and development of steers of Hereford breed have been refl ected in the article. The addition of the feed additive Biovitel to the main ration of the experimental group of steers helped them to achieve a higher live weight and higher average daily gains under the same environments of feeding and housing in all age periods. By the end of the experiment (15 months) the experimental group of steers have reached the live weight of 430,2 kg, which was higher by 19,9 kg or 4,9 % compared to the control group of steers. In order to improve the quality of beef and increase its production more intensive rearing of steers of Hereford breed with the use of feed protein additive Biovitel has been justifi ed. The recommended dose is 100 g per head. This dosage allows you to achieve the average daily gain of 967,5 g and the average live weight of 430,2 kg by 15 months of age, reduce the prime cost and increase the profi tability of beef production.

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of supplementing broiler chickens’ diets with halloysite on daily body weight gain (BWG), feed conversion ratio (FCR), daily water consumption (DWC), and some broiler house hygiene parameters. The trial was conducted on 18,000 broiler chickens divided into two groups throughout the 42-day (D) rearing period. The birds were fed complete diets without (group C) or with halloysite addition (1%, group E) from D8 of rearing. No difference in the mortality rate was observed between groups C and E. Birds from group E had a tendency (0.05 < p < 0.10) towards a higher body weight at D32 and D42, a higher BWG, and a lower FCR compared to group C during the entire rearing period. Average DWC differed only in the finisher period, with a tendency towards lower overall DWC in group E. The concentration of ammonia in the air from D21 to D35 was increased more than 5-fold in group C but only 1.5-fold in group E. In conclusion, the use of halloysite as a feed additive in the diet of broiler chickens resulted in a reduction in feed consumption per unit of BWG and higher utilisation of crude protein, which led to improved environmental conditions.

The Impact

The aim of this research is to study the impact of physically active breaks, accompanied by video materials, on the level of pupils’ educational achievement and their attitudes toward physically active breaks during the teaching process in the classroom. The research lasted for two months, and the apposite sample consisted of a total of 38 pupils aged 10 to 11. The influence of physically active breaks on the educational achievement was estimated by the percentage of correct answers in the tasks of mathematics, while the Croatian version of the questionnaire Attitudes towards the Physical Activity Scale (APAS) was used for evaluating the attitudes toward physically active breaks with video materials. Differ ences between the initial and final measuring inside the same group were tested by the Student’s dependent sample t-test, while for differences between the experimental and control group the Student’s independent sample t-test was used. The obtained results showed that the ability to solve mathematical tasks in the experimental group has significantly improved when compared to the control one and that physically active breaks have a positive influence on the pupils’ attitudes toward physical activity. The implementation of physically active breaks into teaching has an impact on pupils’ productivity in the educational process, while at the same time their need for movement is fulfilled.

It is possible to raise healthy generations by improving the awareness levels of the role models (parents, teachers etc.) who will shape the perspectives of future parents towards nutrition and physical activity. That children receive adequate levels of nutrition from proper sources, which is vital for children’s growth and development, is considerably under the control of external factors (e.g. family and friends’ eating habits, third person’s care/knowledge and experiences such as teachers/trainers etc.). Considering nutrition and the intense physical activity of preschoolers, which is an inherent characteristic of that development stage, and especially the children who are guided to do more intense physical activity, the case becomes more complex. Thus, with the aim to address children’s energy depletion from intense physical activity, it is suggested to provide children with attractive alternatives. Including some of these alternatives, this study aims to reveal the significance of an adequate and balanced diet as well as proper planning of physical activity and periodic assessments at the appropriate time and conditions so that the children who start regular physical activity display optimal performance.

It is important to search for new highly effective multicomponent compounds that are able to influence several of animals’ homeostasis systems simultaneously to improve the physiological adaptation of fur animals to different conditions of nutrition. This is the function of the feed additive Floravit® – a natural bioregulator. The compound is a combination of biologically active ingredients produced by the mycelial fungus Fusarium sambucinum. Studied was the effect of Floravit® on the structure of the skin and hair in adult female sable (Martes zibellina). The scientific and economic experiment was conducted at the JSC “Plemzavod Pushkinskyi” in the Moscow Region during the period of winter fur formation in October-November. The study of the morphological structure of the hair and skin cover was carried out in the chine, side and rump topographical areas. The structure of the guard hairs in the main topographical areas was examined on a scanning electron microscope. The experiment showed that administration of Floravit® per os to adult female sable at a dose of 1.0 ml per head per day throughout the period of winter pelt formation in October-November has an influence on the morphological structure of all the categories of hair on all topographic pelt areas. Animals in the test group exposed to Floravit® exhibited an increase in guide hair length on the chine and side, when compared to controls, by 4.1 mm (p < 0.001) and by 2.8 mm (p < 0.01), respectively. The length of guard hair on the chine, side and rump increased by 8.1, 7.8 and 7.8 mm (p < 0.001), respectively. An increase in down hair length was recorded in all areas of the pelt, when compared to controls, by 13.0, 4.5 and 6.3 mm (p < 0.001). An increase in dermal thickness was recorded in the chine area by 0.7 mm (p < 0.001). The specified changed in the skin and hair structure in sable adult females after using Floravit® have shown a positive influence on the quality of hair cover. As a result, bioregulator Floravit® takes part in the adaptation process of the sable organism to external factors.

The protein, vitamin and mineral supplements have been developed and it was studied the efficiency of feeding with them the young cattle in the composition of the grain production. The scientific and farm experiment has been carried out during 62 days. The study was conducted in four groups of bulls with 12 heads in each. The initial live weight at the beginning of the study was about 300–310 kg. Differences in feeding were in the fact that the grain forage for young animals of group I included PVMS No. 1, II – PVMS No. 2, III –PVMS No.3, IV – PVMS No 4. The grain feed is represented mainly by barley. The protein, vitamin and mineral supplement replenished 20 % of the deficient protein. It was discovered that concentration of hydrogen ions was practically at the same level in the rumen contents of steers of different groups. As for level of ammonia, VFA, total nitrogen, ciliates in the young cattle of I, II and III groups, the differences were insignificant. The concentration of ammonia of group IVcompared to I, II and III group was higher by 15.58, 23.61 and 21.9 %, VFA – by 6.7, 19.4 and 11.1 %, total nitrogen – by 3.32, 31.44 and 24.03 %, ciliates – by 4.35, 14.29 and 9.09 %, respectively. The research results showed that digestibility of protein, fiber and BEV was higher in the fourth group by 1–7 % compared with the rest groups (P>0.05). A slight increase in nitrogen deposition was found in IV group of young animals (by 4.7–11.9 %) receiving PVMS with AFA as a source of protein. The use of calcium and phosphorus by animals was almost at the same level. The research helped to determine that the average daily weight gain of animals of all the groups was within the range 629–710 g. The highest was in the fourth group consuming PVMS No. 4 with AFA as a protein component; the second place in terms is occupied by group I – 660 g, consuming PVMS No. 2, which included lupine, AFA and standard DKMK No. 1; PVMS No. 3 with depleted phosphate used as a source of phosphorus, took the last place in terms of this indicator – 629 g. Feed cost per 1 kg of weight gain was the lowest in IV group – 8.77 feed units, in I, II and III groups, it was higher by 8.32 %; 13.68 and 10.83 %, respectively. The cost of sold products from one animal during experiment turned out to be higher for steers that received PVMS No. 4 as compared to I, II and III groups by 6.82, 11.36 and 9.1 %, respectively.

The materials of the article present data on research on the chemical, mineral-vitamin composition and nutritional value of a new feed additive from citrus pomace. The article presents the results of research on the technological line of granulation of citrus waste, established the optimal composition for granulation of citrus feed additives: sunflower meal - 20%, molasses - 5% and 75% of citrus fruits.Their chemical composition was studied, the gross content of proteins, fats, assimilated carbohydrates, including simple sugars, was determined, and the efficiency of use in the diets of farm animals was determined. The positive influence of citrus waste granulation technology has been established, which allows to obtain high-quality granules. Chemical analysis of citrus granules showed that 100 g contains: protein - 6.15 g, fat - 0.99 g, carbohydrates - 21.8 g, of which simple sugars 14 g, the energy value of this feed additive - Kcal (kJ) - 120.7 (505.7).The possibility of preparation of feed additives in the form of granules is revealed, which allows to avoid selfsorting of components and overdose of microelements and to improve the consumption of feed ingredients. The ability to prepare feed additives in the form of granules avoids self-sorting of components and overdose of micronutrients and improve the consumption of feed ingredients. The results of zootechnical researches, structure and nutritional value of average daily rations with use of citrus pomace are resulted.It was found that the introduction into the diet of dairy cows feed additives from citrus pomace during stable lactation increases the average daily expectations by 1.8 kg or 15.5%, feed costs for milk production containing 4 fat were 0.97-0, 98 feed units. When using a feed additive from citrus pomace, the nutritional value of the diet is improved due to the ratio of sugar - protein (0.62: 1 vs. 0.8: 1.2).
