The effect of feeding fresh swine manure, poultry waste, urea, molasses and bakery by-products ensiled for lambs

The use of by-products such as swine manure (SM), poultry waste (PW), urea (U), molasses (M) and bakery by-product (BB) is an alternative method for lamb feeding. The objective of the present study was to determine the chemical composition, dry matter intake and digestibility in growing lambs using ensiled PW combined with BB (PWBB), SM with BB (SMBB), SM with M (SMM) and U with M (UM) in their diets. Four silages—PWBB, SMBB, SMM and UM—were prepared, the chemical composition of the silages was determined (n = 3), silages and concentrate ratio (60:40) as fresh matter were given to growing lambs over 21 days as total period, and the collection of samples to determine intake and digestibility was carried out for the last 7 days, in a 4 × 4 Latin square design, with a significance level P < 0.05. The organic matter (OM) was lower (P < 0.05) in silage with SMM (886 g/kg), and crude protein increased with UM (206 g/kg) followed by PWBB (170 g/kg). DM, OM, NDF and ADF intake was higher (P < 0.05) in UM diets compared with the rest of the treatments; ADF digestibility was lower (P < 0.05) for SMM (389 g/kg) than UM (417 g/kg) diets. N intake was higher (P < 0.05) in UM (51.3 g N/day) diets than the rest of the treatments (39.9 ± 1.3 g N/day). The use of PWBB, SM combined with BB or M is an alternative method for lamb feeding, provided that a proper formulation supplies the nutrient requirements of crude protein and diminish the N excretion compared with UM diet.

Standardized Ileal Amino Acid Digestibility of Corn, Corn Distillers’ Dried Grains with Solubles, Wheat Middlings, and Bakery By-Products in Broilers and Laying Hens

Standardized ileal amino acid digestibility (SIAAD) of 5 samples of corn distillers dried grain with solubles (DDGS), 5 samples of bakery by-products (BBP), 3 samples of corn, and 1 sample of wheat middlings (WM) were evaluated in broilers and laying hens. Diets containing each of the 14 feed ingredients were evaluated in 21 day-old broiler chickens. The DDGS and BBP containing diets were fed to 30-week-old laying hens, while corn and wheat middling were evaluated in 50-week-old laying hens. All the diets were semi-purified with each feed ingredient being the only source of amino acid (AA). To obtain SIAAD values, apparent ileal AA digestibility was corrected for basal ileal endogenous AA losses using values generated from broilers and laying hens fed a nitrogen-free diet. Ileal crude protein digestibility for the 5 DDGS samples was higher (P<0.05) in broilers than in laying hens. Broilers had higher SIAAD for DDGS 2, 3, 4, and 5 while there was no difference for DDGS 1 except for 4 AA where broilers had higher (P<0.05) SIAAD values. Standardized ileal AA digestibility values for broilers were higher (P<0.05) for BBP 1 and 4. Ileal CP digestibility for corn 1 was higher (P<0.05) for broilers compared to laying hens, and SIAAD values for the 16AA (9 indispensable and 7 dispensable) evaluated in this study were higher (P<0.05) in broilers. Broilers had higher (P<0.05) SIAAD values for 4 (histidine, leucine, phenylalanine, and valine) and 6 (histidine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, and valine) indispensable and 3 (cysteine, glutamic acid, and proline) and 4 (cysteine, glutamic acid, proline, and serine) dispensable AA for corn 2 and corn 3, respectively. No difference in SIAAD between broilers and laying hens was observed for WM. Results from this study confirm that high variability in digestibility exists between different samples of DDGS. Differences in SIAAD between broilers and laying hens were observed in some samples of DDGS and BBP.

Nutritive value of ensiled pig excreta, poultry litter or urea with molasses or bakery by-products in diets for lambs

The objective of this study was to evaluate the nutritive value of maize stover silage diets containing pig excreta (PE), poultry litter (PL) or urea as nitrogen (N) sources, and sugarcane molasses (MOL) or bakery by-products (BBP) as energy sources. The study was designed as a 6 × 6 Latin square with six ruminal cannulated Hampshire rams (56 ± 5.7 kg body weight) in a 3 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. The quality of silages was good because of acceptable pH (4.1), texture and odour. Gas production was higher for diets with silage containing PL than that containing PE (287 vs. 269 mL/g DM). The fermentation rate of diets with MOL was higher than with BBP (0.07 vs. 0.05/h). The in vitro degradation, feed intake and N excretion of diets that contained PL were higher than with PE silage. Feed intake for diets with silage that contained BBP and PL or PE was lower than that containing MOL. Rumen pH was increased in lambs fed diets with silage that contained urea (6.38) or PL (6.25), compared with lambs fed diets containing PE silage (6.04). Dry matter (DM) and organic matter (OM) disappearances were higher for diets with silage containing PL compared with those containing PE or urea (650 vs. 606 and 594 g/g DM; 620 vs. 574 and 594 g/g OM, respectively). The N retention and total tract digestion were similar for all treatments. It was concluded that diets with PL and MOL silage had higher nutritive values than those containing PE or urea.

Short communication. Effects of adding different protein and carbohydrates sources on chemical composition and in vitro gas production of corn stover silage

The use of protein-rich by-products based in swine manure (SM), poultry waste (PW) or chemicals compounds as urea (U), as well as energy products like molasses (M) and bakery by-product (BB), is a viable method to produce good quality silage. In addition, the use of a bacterial additive can improve the fermentation characteristics of silage. The objective of this study was to determine chemical composition, in vitro gas production (GP) and dry matter disappearance (DMd), using different sources of protein and energy in silage. The silages were made using SM, PW or U as protein sources and M or BB as energy source, with corn stover and with or without a bacterial additive. The organic matter (OM) content was higher (p &lt; 0.001) in silages with UBB, UM and SMBB compared with the rest of the treatments; meanwhile crude protein content was higher (p &lt; 0.001) in silages with U. The addition of a bacterial additive increased (p &lt; 0.05) OM content and decreased (p &lt; 0.05) fiber content. Total GP was higher (p &lt; 0.05) in silages containing BB, but DMd was higher (p &lt; 0.05) in silages with U and SMBB. The inclusion of a bacterial additive decreased (p &lt; 0.05) GP and DMd. The use of alternative sources of protein such as poultry and swine manure or urea, and of by-products of sugar industry and bakery is an alternative for silages based on corn stover. The results show that when properly formulated, the silages can provide more than 16% of crude protein and have DMd values above 60%.

Effects of added Zn in diets with Ractopamine HCl on growth performance and carcass quality of finishing pigs in a commercial environment (2012)

The experiment was conducted in a commercial facility to determine the effects of added Zn on the performance of finishing pigs fed Ractopamine HCl (RAC; Paylean®; Elanco Animal Health, Greenfield, IN). Pigs were randomly assigned to pens based on gender (14 barrow pens, 11 gilt pens, and 23 mixed-gender pens), with 25 to 28 pigs per pen. Previously, pens of pigs were assigned to treatments containing 0, 7.5, or 15% bakery by-product in a completely randomized design while balancing for initial BW and gender. On d 75, treatments were implemented to determine the effects of adding 50 ppm Zn from ZnO on finishing pig performance. A total of 1,234 pigs (PIC 337 × 1050; average BW 224.6 lb) were used in a 28-d study. Pens of pigs were randomly assigned to diets with and without 50 ppm added Zn from zinc oxide (ZnO) and balanced by BW, bakery by-product, and gender. All diets contained 5 ppm RAC and 83 ppm Zn from ZnO provided by the trace mineral premix. There were 24 pens per treatment.

Effects of feeder design (conventional dry vs. wet-dry) on growth performance of 45- to 246-lb pigs (2012)

A total of 1,253 pigs (PIC 1050 × 337; initially 45 lb) were used in a 104-d study to evaluate the effects of using a wet-dry (WD) or conventional dry (CD) feeder on growth performance of growing-finishing pigs. At the start of the trial, pens of pigs were weighed and randomly allotted to 1 of the 2 feeder types. The CD feeder was a single-sided, 56-in.-wide, stainless steel feeder (Thorp Equipment, Inc., Thorp, WI) with 4 14-in. feeding spaces and a 4.25-in.-deep trough. A cup waterer in pens using CD feeders ensured ad libitum access to water as well as feed. The WD feeder was double-sided (15-in.-wide feeder opening on each side) with a single nipple waterer (Crystal Springs, GroMaster, Inc., Omaha, NE), and the feeder was the only source of water. All pigs were fed the same corn-soybean meal diets containing 30% bakery by-product and 10 to 45% dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) during 5 dietary phases. For the overall period, pigs fed with the WD feeder had greater ADG (P < 0.01) and ADFI (P = 0.01) with no differences in F/G (P = 0.50) compared with pigs fed using the CD feeder. This study confirms previous results where pigs fed using a WD feeder have greater ADG and ADFI than those fed with a CD feeder.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 15, 2012

The effects of MicroSource S on growth performance, fecal consistency, and postcleaning microbial load of growing-finishing pigs (2012)

A total of 1,245 pigs (PIC 1050 × 337, initially 106 lb) were used in a 90-d study to determine the effects of MicroSource S (DSM Nutritional Products Inc., Parsippany, NJ) and diet type on growth performance, carcass traits, fecal consistency, pen cleaning time, and postcleaning microbial load in growing-finishing pigs raised under commercial conditions. Pens of pigs were balanced by initial weight and randomly allotted to 1 of 6 dietary treatments in a completely randomized design with 25 to 26 pigs per pen and 8 replications per treatment. Treatments were arranged as a 3 × 2 factorial with main effects of MicroSource S (0, 1×, or 1.3×) and diet type (corn-soybean meal or a by-product–based diet with 30% dried distillers grains with solubles [DDGS] and 15% bakery by-product). The MicroSource S dose in the diet was 147 million cfu/g feed for the 1× level and 191 million cfu/g feed for the 1.3× level. Fecal consistency and manure buildup in each pen was scored at the end of the trial by 3 observers with the average value per pen used for analysis. Time required to wash each individual pen was also recorded. After pens were cleaned and dried, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) testing was used to measure microbial load in each pen.

Effects of increasing dietary bakery by-product on growing-finishing pig growth performance and carcass quality (2012)

A total of 1,263 pigs (PIC 337 × 1050; initially 77.8 lb) were used in a 102-d study to determine the effects of dietary bakery by-product on pig growth performance and carcass quality. Pigs were randomly assigned to pens based on gender (14 barrow pens, 11 gilt pens, and 23 mixed-gender pens). Pens of pigs were allotted to 1 of 3 dietary treatments in a completely randomized design while balancing for initial BW and gender. Dietary treatments included 0, 7.5, and 15% bakery by-product. On d 84, the 5 heaviest pigs from each pen (determined visually) were sold according to the normal marketing procedure of the farm. On d 102, the remaining pigs were individually tattooed by pen number and sent to harvest to allow for collection of carcass data. On d 84 and d 102, the median weight market pig from every pen was selected (determined visually) for collection of carcass quality measurements.

Clinical profile, treatment assignment, predictors of death of patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis not eligible to participate in a clinical trial evaluation of transcatheter aortic valve implantation

This study was conducted to determine the effects of lactic acid bacteria (LAB, Lactobacillus salivarius) inoculation on the microbial, physical and chemical properties of food waste mixture (FWM) stored at ambient temperature (25 °C) for 10 and 30 days. A complete pig diet including restaurant food waste, bakery by-product, barley and wheat bran, and broiler poultry litter was amended with LAB at the levels of 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.0% and fermented anaerobically. These treatments were compared with intact FWM before storage and non-anaerobically stored FWM.Non-anaerobic storage of FWM showed microbial putrefaction with the loss (P < 0.05) of water and water soluble carbohydrate (WSC) and increases (P < 0.005) in protein and fiber. Anaerobic fermentation of FWM with or without LAB seemed effective in both 10- and 30-day-storage. The addition of LAB inoculants to FWM showed a linear trend (P < 0.05) toward an increase in the number of total and lactic acid bacteria and toward the nutritional improvement with WSC increased and fiber decreased. Long-term (30 days) storage resulted in consistent reduction (P < 0.05) in numbers of total and lactic acid bacteria and pH and showed little change in chemical components, compared with short-term (10 days) storage. On the basis of these results, LAB inoculation improved fermentative characteristics of FWM. Among anaerobic treatments, further WSC increase and NDF reduction did not occur (P > 0.05) when LAB-added levels were over 0.2%. Based on these observations the optimum level of LAB addition to FWM was 0.2%.

Use of different kind of silage dairy cattle manure in lamb nutrition

Feeding cattle manure (CM) for ruminants may reduce feed costs for smallholders and provide a partial solution to environment problems for large dairy herds. Feeding value of ensiling CM with molasses (MO), bakery by-products (BBP) and tallow (TW) was evaluated. Five Suffolk male lambs were fed on different kind of CM as follow: i) control: CM and MO; ii) LBBP: CM and low level of BBP; iii) HBBP: CM and high level of BBP; iv) LTW: CM, BBP and low level of TW and v) HTW: CM, BBP and high level of TW. Ensiling CM with BBP had the lowest silage losses. Silages were part of diets, which were fed to lambs fitted with ruminal cannulas. Nutrient intake and N balance did not differ in lambs across all experimental diets, but the NDF digestion of diets with BBP and TW was lower than with MO or BBP. Ensiling CM with BBP offered less silage losses compared with MO.

Feeding value of ensiling fresh cattle manure with molasses or bakery by-products in lambs

Ensiling fresh dairy cattle manure (CM), corn stover, molasses (MO) or bakery by-products (BBP), as a viable method to produce good quality silage was evaluated. Silages composition was as follows: 1) molasses silage: CM, corn stover and molasses; and 2) BBP silages: CM, corn stover, and BBP. A low (250 g/kg dry matter) and a high (500 g/kg dry matter) level of CM with MO or BBP silages were incorporated in diets, and compared with a control diet (without CM silage) in lambs. There was a linear increase ( P < 0.01) of dry matter (DM) intake and a quadratic increase of fiber digestion. Linear decrease ( P < 0.05) in acetate to propionate ratio was observed with increased concentrations of MO or BBP in silages. Increasing MO silage caused a linear reduction of N intake and retained N, as well as a linear increase of fecal N. There were quadratic effects of BBP silage level on N intake, urine and retained, being the lowest values observed with the low level of BBP silage. Addition of BBP silages (250 or 500 g/kg DM) bring higher DM intake and total tract digestion of fiber, as compared to those diets without CM silage.

Effects of feeder adjustment on growth performance of growing and finishing pigs (2008)

Two studies were conducted to determine the effects of feeder adjustment on growth performance of growing and finishing pigs. Both experiments were conducted at a commercial swine research facility in southwest Minnesota. In Exp. 1, a total of 1,170 barrows and gilts (PIC, initially 129.0 lb) were used in a 70-d study. Pigs were blocked by weight and randomly allotted to 1 of 5 treatments with 9 replications per treatment. The treatments were feeder settings of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, based on settings at the top of the STACO stainless steel dry feeders. Pigs were fed corn-soybean meal-based diets. From d 0 to 28, pigs fed from feeders with increasing feeder openings had increased (linear, P < 0.04) ADG and ADFI. For d 28 to 70, increasing feeder setting did not affect (P > 0.10) any growth performance traits. Overall (d 0 to 70), pigs fed from feeders with increasing feeder openings had increased (linear, P < 0.03) ADFI. Changing feeder setting did not affect (P > 0.18) ADG or F/G. In Exp. 2, a total of 1,250 barrows and gilts (PIC, initially 77.3 lb) were used in a 69-d study to determine the effect of feeder setting and diet type on growth performance of growing and finishing pigs. Pigs were blocked by weight and randomly allotted to 1 of 6 treatments with 8 replications per treatment. The treatments were arranged in a 3 × 2 factorial with main effects of STACO stainless steel dry feeder setting (1, 3, or 5) and diet type (corn-soybean meal- or by-product-based (15% DDGS and 5% bakery by-product). Overall (d 0 to 69), there were no feeder setting × diet type interactions (P > 0.31) for growth performance. Diet type did not affect (P > 0.75) growth performance. Increasing feeder openings increased ADG (qu-adratic, P < 0.03) and ADFI (linear, P < 0.01). Feeder setting tended to influence (quadratic, P > 0.08) F/G with the best F/G at feeder set-ting of 3. In conclusion, feeding pigs from feeders with a more open feeder setting increased ADG and ADFI and tended to improve F/G at middle feeder settings compared with more closed feeder settings. With the dry feeders used in this study, feed should cover slightly more than half of the feed pan to avoid limiting pig performance.; Swine Day, 2008, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS, 2008

Effect of use of bread in fattening of Cinta Senese pig

Effect of use of bakery by-products in substitution of part of a mixture of corn and seed on performance and meat traits of Cinta Senese pigs was tested. Seventeen pigs were employed: 6 pigs were fed mixture (diet M) and 11 pigs were fed mixture and bread (diet B). Each group was reared outdoors. The trial was carried out during the fattening period. Diet B showed higher average daily gain (ADG) (0.395 vs. 0.239 kg), higher backfat thickness (GM: 6.48 vs. 5.09 cm; LT: 5.67 vs. 4.28 cm) and higher inner fat deposition (31.42 vs. 29.09% on sample cut). As regard the physical traits of Longissimus lumborum muscle, cooking loss resulted higher in diet M than diet B (21.0 vs 17.3%).

Lactic acid fermentation of food waste for swine feed

This study was conducted to determine the effects of lactic acid bacteria (LAB, Lactobacillus salivarius) inoculation on the microbial, physical and chemical properties of food waste mixture (FWM) stored at ambient temperature (25 °C) for 10 and 30 days. A complete pig diet including restaurant food waste, bakery by-product, barley and wheat bran, and broiler poultry litter was amended with LAB at the levels of 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.0% and fermented anaerobically. These treatments were compared with intact FWM before storage and non-anaerobically stored FWM. Non-anaerobic storage of FWM showed microbial putrefaction with the loss ( P < 0.05) of water and water soluble carbohydrate (WSC) and increases ( P < 0.005) in protein and fiber. Anaerobic fermentation of FWM with or without LAB seemed effective in both 10- and 30-day-storage. The addition of LAB inoculants to FWM showed a linear trend ( P < 0.05) toward an increase in the number of total and lactic acid bacteria and toward the nutritional improvement with WSC increased and fiber decreased. Long-term (30 days) storage resulted in consistent reduction ( P < 0.05) in numbers of total and lactic acid bacteria and pH and showed little change in chemical components, compared with short-term (10 days) storage. On the basis of these results, LAB inoculation improved fermentative characteristics of FWM. Among anaerobic treatments, further WSC increase and NDF reduction did not occur ( P > 0.05) when LAB-added levels were over 0.2%. Based on these observations the optimum level of LAB addition to FWM was 0.2%.

Wheat by-products in poultry nutrition. Part II. Nutritive value of wheat screenings, bakery by-products and wheat mill run and their improved utilization by enzyme supplementation

A series of experiments was conducted to determine the nutritive value of wheat screenings, bakery by-products and wheat mill run used by the feed industry in Canada and to investigate the effect of enzyme supplementation on available energy content, nutrient digestibility and broiler chicken growth performance. Broiler chicken performance (2-wk growth trial) was compared using a wheat/soybean meal-based control diet and diets substituted with wheat by-products (wheat screenings, 200 g kg-1; bakery by-products or mill run, 100 g kg-1). In addition, diets containing one sample of each of the by-products were fed to broiler chickens with enzyme supplementation (Superzyme W®). Chicken performance was not affected by dietary substitution of wheat by-products for wheat as values for control, wheat screenings (three samples), bakery by-products (two samples) and mill run (one sample) were similar for body weight gain (514, 520, 515, 500 g bird-1) and for feed to gain ratio (1.52, 1.52, 1.52, 1.50), respectively. Response to enzyme supplementation was highest for wheat screenings showing a statistically significant (P ≤ 0.05) improvement in body weight gain (523 vs. 548 g bird-1) and feed to gain ratio (1.54 vs. 1.47). To further substantiate the importance of enzyme supplementation, a long-term production trial with broiler chickens was conducted. Five replicate pens of 60 birds per treatment were used in the starter (21 d) and grower (16 d) phases of the experiment consisting of three treatments: positive control (PC) (wheat/soybean meal/fish meal), negative control (NC) (wheat/wheat screenings/barley/soybean/ canola meal) and NC + Enzyme (Superzyme W®). In comparison to PC, the NC diet contained 5% less metabolizable energy, 8–10% less crude protein, amino acids and calcium and 25% less available phosphorus. Body weight gain and feed conversion ratio averaged 2.14, 2.10, 2.17 kg bird-1 and 1.68, 1.76, 1.66 for PC, NC and NC + Enzyme, respectively. A significant (P &lt; 0.05) improvement in broiler chicken performance with enzyme supplementation was further substantiated by the same magnitude of difference in dry matter (71.2, 68.7, 75.1%), starch (92.5, 90.3, 95.6%), non-starch poly saccharides (NSP) (4.8, 15.0, 36.1%), energy (AME) (12.37, 11.83, 12.84 MJ kg-1) and phytate (44.3, 37.5, 69.5%) digestibilities. It is evident from this study that the use of wheat by-products in concert with an effective enzyme supplement in broiler chicken diets will allow for optimum growth performance.

Wheat by-products in poultry nutrition. Part I. Chemical and nutritive composition of wheat screenings, bakery by-products and wheat mill run

A study was conducted to investigate the variability in chemical and nutritive composition of wheat screenings, bakery by-products and wheat mill run used by the feed industry in Canada. On average, and in comparison to wheat (as-fed basis), the wheat screenings (16 samples) contained less starch (457 vs. 560 g kg-1; P &lt; 0.0001), less available energy (TMEn) (13.19 vs. 13.76 MJ kg-1; P &lt; 0.05), similar amounts of sugars (19 vs. 12 g kg-1; P &gt; 0.05), phytate phosphorus (2.4 vs. 3.0 g kg-1; P &gt; 0.05), and higher levels of protein (151 vs. 126 g kg-1; P &lt; 0.0001), fat (66 vs. 12 g kg-1; P &lt; 0.0001) and non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) (100 vs. 91 g kg-1; P &lt; 0.01). A negative relationship (P &lt; 0.0001) between starch and fat contents of the wheat screenings samples was noted indicating that a decrease in starch content of 20 g kg-1 would result in an increase in fat content by approximately 9 g kg-1. This inverse relationship should result in the maintenance of a relatively high content of available energy in wheat screenings. The low level of glucosinolates in wheat screenings (min. 0.66, max. 4.24 µmol g-1) indicated that canola seed rather than wild and/or condiment mustard seed was a predominant oilseed in the samples and the main contributor to the high oil content. Bakery by-products (12 samples) contained 119 g kg-1 protein (as-fed basis) , 378 g kg-1 starch, 84 g kg-1 sugars, 81 g kg-1 fat, 87 g kg-1 NSP and 14.34 MJ kg-1 TMEn. Six samples of wheat mill run were evaluated, and on an as-fed basis were found to contain 165 g kg-1 protein, 264 g kg-1 starch, 36 g kg-1 sugars, 43 g kg-1 fat, 224 g kg-1 NSP and 5.2 g kg-1 phytate phosphorus. Although high levels of phytate phosphorus were found to be present in the mill run samples, the mill run was also found to contain the highest activity of endogenous phytase (2331 units kg-1) when compared to wheat (1358 units kg-1) or wheat screenings (1348 units kg-1). The total dietary fibre content of mill run was found to be 387 g kg-1 on average and was much higher than that determined for wheat screenings (195 g kg-1) and bakery by-products (134 g kg-1).

육계분-제과부산물 혼합사료 급여가 육성 거세 한우의 생산성, 경제성 및 육 특성에 미치는 영향

본 연구는 개발된 육계분(64%)-제과부산물(36%) 혼합사료 90%와 볏짚 10%로의 기존의 배합사료와 볏짚 완전 대체 시 육성 거세 한우의 생산성, 경제성 및 육 특성에 미치는 효과를 구명하고자 실시하였다. 동일 열량 기준으로 설계된 대조구와 시험구 사료를 육성 한우 총 20두에게 12주간 급여한 결과는 다음과 같았다. 제조된 혼합사료의 성분 변이도는 배합사료보다 높은 편이었으며, 혼합사료의 기호성 문제는 없었다. 혼합사료 90%-볏짚 10% 급여구(시험구)는 기존의 배합사료-볏짚 급여구(대조구)와 비교해서 사료 DM 섭취량은 높았고(P〈0.05), OM 섭취량은 동일하였으며, 일당증체율(0.75 vs 0.64 kg/d)과 DM(10.1 vs 12.5), OM(9.0 vs 10.6) 사료 효율 또한 비슷하였다. 혼합사료 급여는 증체 당 사료비용을 약 45% 절감시켰으며, 육 특성에는 전혀 나쁜 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이러한 결과들은 육계분-제과부산물 혼합사료는 한우 육성용으로서 성공적으로 이용될 수 있는 잠재적 가능성을 시사하고 있다. This study was conducted to determine the effect of feeding a mixture of broiler litter and bakery by-product on production, economy and meat characteristics of growing ‘Hanwoo’ steers. A control diet (conventional formulated feed and rice straw) and a treatment diet(90% mixture of broiler litter 64% and bakery by-product 36% and 10% rice straw on DM basis) were prepared on an isoenergetic basis and fed to 20 steers for 12 weeks. Palatability of TMR by ‘Hanwoo’ was fair. Compared with feeding a control diet, feeding a treatment diet resulted in increased(P〈0.05) DM intake, similar OM intake, similar daily weight gain(0.75 vs 0.64 kg/d) and feed efficiency of DM(10.1 vs 12.5) and OM(9.0 vs 10.6), considerably(45%) reduced(P〈0.05) feed cost/gain, and similar meat characteristics. These results show that a mixed ration manufactured with broiler litter and bakery by-product may be potentially used for growing ‘Hanwoo’ steers.

육계분과 제과부산물을 이용한 반추가축용 완전혼합사료(TMR) 제조 시 가공처리 방법이 물리화학적 특성에 미치는 영향

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to develop effective manufacturing methods of a total mixed ration(TMR) composed of broiler litter(BL) and bakery by-product(BB) for ruminants. Five experiments included a small-scaled manufacture of TMR using a deepstacking method(Exp. 1), its pelletization(Exp. 2), its field-scaled manufacture(Exp. 3), a field-scaled manufacture using an ensiling method(Exp. 4), and a mixing process of deepstacked BL and BB prior to feeding(Exp. 5). BL and BB were mixed at a ratio which makes total digestible nutrients of the TMR 69%. For each experiment, temperature, appearance and physico-chemical properties were recorded and analyzed. The chemical composition data revealed that the mixture of BL and BB showed nutritionally additive balance which resulted from a considerable increase(P<0.05) of organic matter and a desirable decrease(P<0.05) of protein and fiber up to the requirement level for growing ‘Hanwoo’ steers. Deepstacking of BL and BB in Exp. 1 and 3 resulted in a sufficient increase of stack temperature for pasteurization, little chemical losses, appearance of white fungi on the surface, and partial charring due to excess stack temperature. For Exp. 2, its pelleting, which was successful using a simple, small-scaled pelletizer, resulted in a little loss(P<0.05) of organic matter and an increase(P<0.05) of indigestible protein(ADF-CP). Ensiling the mixture in Exp. 4 made little effect on chemical composition; however, one month of the ensiling period was not enough for favorable silage parameters. Deepstacking BL alone in Exp. 5 tended(P<0.1) to decrease true protein : NPN ratio and hemicellulose content and increase ADF-CP content due to the heat damage occurred. Deepstacking or ensiling of BL-BB mixtures and simple incorporating of BB into deepstacked BL prior to feeding could be practical and nutrients-preservative methods in TMR manufacture for beef cattle, although ensiling needed further hygienic evaluation.(

육계분-제과부산물 발효 완전혼합사료(TMR)의 면양 체내에서의 영양소 이용성 평가

본 실험은 육계분과 제과부산물로 제조된 TMR(TDN 69%)에 입자도가 각기 다른 여분의 육계분과 볏짚(diet DM의 10% 수준)을 혼합하여 기존의 배합사료와 볏짚 급여 체계(대조구)를 100% 대체하였을 때 면양에 의한 행동 양상, 영양소 섭취량, 체내 소화율, 가소화 영양소 섭취량, 반추위 성상, 혈액 성상 및 체내 질소 출납에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 실시하였다. 대조구와 비교해서 TMR 급여구들은 일일 섭취시간, 반추시간, 총 저작시간이 감소하였고(P<0.05), 음수시간은 증가하였으며(P<0.05), 사료 DM 섭취량이 비슷한 상황에서 가소화(digestible) DM, OM, fiber 및 총 영양소 섭취량은 낮았으며(P<0.05), EE를 제외한 영양소 소화율 또한 낮았으나(P<0.05), 반추위 발효 성상(pH, VFA 생성량 및 비율, acetate/ propionate 비율, 탄수화물 발효 효율, 반추위 NH3-N)과 혈중 urea-N 농도는 별 차이 없이 정상적이었으며, 특히 사료 단백질의 체내 활용성(소화율 및 축적율)은 양호한 것으로 나타났다. TMR에 입자도가 작은 육계분을 입자도가 큰 볏짚으로 diet DM의 10% 수준을 대체하였을 때, 일일 섭취시간, 반추시간, 총 저작시간은 증가하였으며(P<0.05), 음수시간은 정상에 가깝게 감소하였고(P<0.05), 그 외의 상기한 parameter에는 전혀 영향을 미치지 않았다. 결과적으로 육계분과 제과부산물로서 적정사료 에너지 수준을 고려하여 제조된 TMR은 반추동물의 기존 배합사료-볏짚 급여 체계를 대체할 수 있는 잠재적 가능성을 시사하였으며, 특히 TMR 급여 시 소량의(건물 10% 수준) 볏짚 공급은 면양의 행동 양상을 보다 양호하게 만들었다. This study was conducted to determine the effect of feeding a total mixed ration(TMR) of broiler litter(BL) and bakery by-product(BB) with additional BL or rice straw incorporated at 10% of dietary DM as a roughage source on behavior pattern, nutrient intake, digestibility, digestible nutrient intake, ruminal and blood parameters, and N balance of sheep. All the treatment diets were formulated to be isoenergetic[total digestible nutrients(TDN) 66.9%]. Compared with the conventional formulated feed - rice straw feeding system(control), feeding TMR with BL(T1) or rice straw(T2) at 10% of dietary DM resulted in reduced eating, ruminating and total chewing time(P<0.05), similar DM intake, low(P<0.05) digestible DM, OM, fiber and total nutrients intake, low(P<0.05) nutrients digestibilities except EE, similar ruminal characteristics(pH, VFA concentrations and ratios, efficiency of carbohydrate fermentation, NH3-N), and favorable N digestion and retention. There were no differences in the above parameters between T1 and T2 with the exception of increased(P<0.05) eating, ruminating and total chewing time for T2. These results suggested that a TMR of BL and BB with or without rice straw may replace the conventional formulated feed and rice straw in ruminant diets successfully and furthermore feeding the TMR with rice straw made sheep behavior pattern more favorable.

Energy Values of Feed Ingredients for White Pekin Ducks

A modified true metabolizable energy bioassay was used to determine the nitrogen-corrected apparent (AMEn) and true (TMEn) metabolizable energy of various feed ingredients for ducks. In each of two experiments, which lasted 102 h with a 54-h excreta collection period following a 48-h period of fee d withdrawal, six male White Pekin ducks were assigned to each of three test feed ingredients and dextrose. Dextrose-fed ducks were used for estimation of endogenous losses of energy and nitrogen. The test ingredients consisted of corn, bakery byproduct and wheat red dog in experiment 1 and corn, corn gluten meal and soybean meal in experiment 2. The AMEn and TMEn values of corn were similar in the first and second experiments at 3.322 and 3.358 and 3.289 and 3.528 kcal/g, respectively. The AMEn and TMEn values of corn were higher (P < 0.05) than those of wheat red dog (2.519 and 2.662 kcal/g), but lower (P < 0.05) than those of bakery byproduct (3.75 and 3.896 kcal/g). Corn gluten meal had the highest (P < 0.05) AMEn and TMEn values (3.695 and 3.934 kcal/g) among three feed ingredients. The AMEn and TMEn value of soybean meal (2.562 and 2.799 kcal/g) were lower (P < 0.05) than those of corn. The study provide new information on AMEn and TMEn values for bakery byproduct, corn, corn gluten meal, soybean meal and wheat red dog; and demonstrated that the energy values, for White Pekin ducks, of bakery byproduct and corn gluten meal are greater than those of corn or soybean meal.
