Eimeria Maxima

SUMMARYThe effects of Eimeria maxima or restricted pair-feeding on weight gain, plasma concentrations of protein, glucose, free fatty acids (FFA) and uric acid and liver glycogen were compared in immature fowl. Food intake/kg body weight and weight gain decreased during the acute phase of infection (days 5–7) while weight loss was prolonged for an extra day compared with pair-fed birds. During recovery, food intake/kg body weight of infected birds was greater than that of non-infected controls but there was no evidence for an increase in growth rate compared with controls when body weight was considered. Growth rate of pair-fed birds was greater than that of infected birds during recovery, indicating their better use of ingested food. Liver glycogen and plasma protein concentration were decreased during the acute phase of infection but the concentrations of plasma glucose, free fatty acid (FFA) and uric acid were not affected. In pair-fed birds liver glycogen was depleted, concentrations of plasma glucose and uric acid decreased and FFA increased, and these changes persisted for the remainder of the experiment. The findings are similar to those in birds whose food has been withheld and were probably due to the pattern of food intake imposed by the experimental protocol. It is concluded that the metabolic differences between infected and pair-fed birds are of doubtful significance.

Autumn And Winter

AbstractIn two experiments the growth, body composition and behaviour of steers and heifers kept in a building with natural day length only (average 9·7 h/day, treatment N) were compared with similar groups of animals kept in identical housing with the day length artificially extended to 16 h/day, (treatment L). The effects were recorded for 126 days in steers and 180 days in heifers, with both groups of animals being slaughtered in March when the two experiments ended. There were no effects over the entire experiment on the growth rate or food intake of either steers or heifers. The growth of the steers was reduced in the first 2 weeks after the lights were switched on but they gained more weight to compensate over the next 8 weeks. Over the whole experiment there was no treatment effect on food conversion ratio for either steers or heifers but it was reduced for steers on treatment L over the first 10 weeks. Steers in treatment N produced fatter carcasses than those on treatment L. Ultrasonic scanning of the heifers showed that those on treatment N deposited more fatty tissue between autumn and winter and less between winter and spring compared with those on treatment L.The behaviour of steers on treatment L did not vary over the experiment but steers on treatment N changed their behaviour with season. They slept for more time in winter and less in spring. Over the whole experiment steers on treatment L slept less and spent more time lying ruminating than those on treatment N but the total time spent lying was not affected by treatment. In contrast, the heifers on treatment L lay down for longer than those on treatment N, suggesting that the effect of supplementary light on lying time, which has been observed previously with dairy cows, is confined to female cattle. Heifers on treatment L started mounting each other earlier than heifers on treatment N and, like the steers, they spent less time sleeping It is concluded that extending the photoperiod for cattle in winter reduced body fatness in both steers and heifers and increased the time heifers spend lying down but that there were no major effects on growth rate or food intake.

ABSTRACTThirty-six piglets were used to investigate the effect of six concentrations of dietary protein ranging from 155 to 235 g/kg, and corresponding dietary lysine concentrations from 10·1 to 15·4 g/kg, on the performance of pigs weaned at 28 days of age and growing between 7·5 and 20 kg live weight. Voluntary food intake was not significantly affected by dietary protein, and growth rate increased with increase in dietary protein and lysine up to 167 and 10·9 g/kg respectively (0·75 g lysine per MJ digestible energy (DE)). Food: gain ratio improved significantly with each increase in dietary protein and lysine up to 177 and 11·6 g/kg (0·79 g lysine per MJ DE) respectively.

Abstract. The life of an abandoned child certainly needs protection so that he can be independent. The article aims to analyze the living conditions of neglected children who have been coached by social workers and supervisors at the Yuda Mandiri Somba Opu Child Welfare Institution. The type of research is descriptive qualitative, obtaining data from informants through in-depth interviews and observations, to analyze data by way of data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. The results obtained regarding the life of street children are the pre-Karangtina situation through assessment, the availability of dormitories, in school, mental guidance and moral guidance, group and individual recitation in the afternoon. Abstrak. Kehidupan anak terlantar tentu membutuhkan perlindungan agar ia bisa mandiri. Artikel bertujuan untuk menganalisi kondisi kehidupan anak terlantar yang selama ini di bina para pekerja sosial dan pembina Lembaga Kesejahteraan Sosial Anak Yuda Mandiri Somba Opu. Adapun jenis penelitian adalah deskriptif kualitatif, perolehan data dari informan melalui wawancara mendalam maupun observasi, untuk menganalisis data dengan cara reduksi data, penyajian data dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil yang diperoleh tentang kehidupan anak jalanan yaitu situasi pra karantina melalui assessment, tersedianya asrama tempat tinggal, di sekolahkan, pendampingan bimbingan mental dan pembinaan akhlak, pengajian di sore hari secara berkelompok maupun individu.

Lean Growth

Past genetic improvement programmes have concentrated mainly on lean growth. They have relied on a few simple measurements of growth rate, food intake and ultrasonic backfat, which were laborious to record, check and process. Now there is increasing concern to improve, or at least avoid undesirable correlated changes in, eating quality, distribution of lean, and reproduction.New electronic techniques offer the opportunity to record additional traits, with lower costs and faster data processing. This paper reviews the likely impact of electronics on the rate and nature of genetic improvement in pigs.
