  • Studies of fiber utilization in poultry

    Creator:
    Hollister, Albert Gene, 1945-
    Abstract:
    The high quality feedstuffs which are used in poultry feeds are costly and could be used directly for human food. There is less competition for fibrous feedstuffs which are less digestible by humans and other nonruminants. Feedstuffs containing crude and refined dietary fiber were examined for their effects on performance,...
