Physical and chemical properties of wood (W) fiber (F)
pellets (P) and wood (W) shavings(S) were determined in the
laboratory prior to their use.
Laboratory results showed that WS were superior to WFP
except for moisture holding capacity on volume basis which is
one of the most essential properties of...
The objectives in these four experiments were to observe
the effectiveness of sodium bisulfate and clinoptilolite and
different methods of application of sodium bisulfate, ferrous
sulfate heptahydrate and Micro Aide® on atmospheric ammonia
level in the broiler house and on broiler performance.
The first experiment was conducted to determine the...
The objective of this work was to define the effects of
dietary energy intake on broiler fat deposition and
metabolism. Fatty broilers are one of the major problems in
the broiler industry.
The effects of changing calorie to protein (Cal/Pr)
ratios, and the addition of cellulose or dried distiller's byproduct...
Five experiments were conducted to investigate the
effect of dietary fish meal on the incidence of Sudden Death
Syndrome (SDS) in broiler chickens. Growth, feed
efficiency, total mortality and mortality due to SDS were
evaluated. Necropsy examination was performed on broilers
suspected of dying from SDS. Liver lipid and fatty...
Six experiments were carried out with Single Comb White Leghorn laying chickens to
assess the effect of feeding a source of direct-fed microbials (Lactobacillus; Lacto) and its
carrier [condensed cane molasses solubles (CCMS)] on the retentions of fat, nitrogen and
several minerals; on the status of the pH of the...
Three experiments were conducted to evaluate the various
methods and application rates of ferrous sulfate-heptahydrate in
the control of atmospheric ammonia in an enclosed broiler house.
The first experiment was conducted to determine the optimal
rate of application of ferrous sulfate-heptahydrate on built-up
litter. Ferrous sulfate was applied on built-up...
Most of the feed required for poultry production in
the Republic of Yemen is imported from Europe. Sometimes,
feed shipments arrive later due to lack of hard currencies
to pay for the feed or to pay the freight charges. Yemeni
broiler producers in such cases feed their birds a single...
The objective of this paper is to seek the general solution of the
complete Navier-Stokes equations governing heterogeneous, time-dependent, incompressible, viscous, laminar fluid dynamics through
digital simulation. In particular, two-layered stratified flows are
treated by using a numerical algorithm called the Marker-and-Cell
extended method (MACE), which is an extension of...
