Principles of Animal Nutrition

Principles of Animal Nutrition

Animals are biological transformers of dietary matter and energy to produce high-quality foods and wools for human consumption and use. Mammals birds fish and shrimp require nutrients to survive grow develop and reproduce. As an interesting dynamic and challenging discipline in biological sciences animal nutrition spans an immense range from chemistry biochemistry anatomy and physiology to reproduction immunology pathology and cell biology. Thus nutrition is a foundational subject in livestock poultry and fish production as well as the rearing and health of companion animals. This book entitled Principles of Animal Nutrition consists of 13 chapters. Recent advances in biochemistry physiology and anatomy provide the foundation to understand how nutrients are utilized by ruminants and non-ruminants. The text begins with an overview of the physiological and biochemical bases of animal nutrition followed by a detailed description of chemical properties of carbohydrates lipids protein and amino acids. It advances to the coverage of the digestion absorption transport and metabolism of macronutrients energy vitamins and minerals in animals. To integrate the basic knowledge of nutrition with practical animal feeding the book continues with discussion on nutritional requirements of animals for maintenance and production as well as the regulation of food intake by animals. Finally the book closes with feed additives including those used to enhance animal growth and survival improve feed efficiency for protein production and replace feed antibiotics. While the classical and modern concepts of animal nutrition are emphasized throughout the book every effort has been made to include the most recent progress in this ever-expanding field so that readers in various biological disciplines can integrate biochemistry and physiology with nutrition health and disease in mammals birds and other animal species (e. g. fish and shrimp). All chapters clearly provide the essential literature related to the principles of animal nutrition which should be useful for academic researchers practitioners beginners and government policy makers. This book is an excellent reference for professionals and a comprehensive textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in animal science biochemistry biomedicine biology food science nutrition veterinary medicine and related fields.

Seaweeds as Plant Fertilizer Agricultural Biostimulants and Animal Fodder

Seaweeds as Plant Fertilizer Agricultural Biostimulants and Animal Fodder

The main effects of Seaweed extracts (Ascophyllum Fucus Sargassum Saccorhiza Laminaria Gelidium and others) when used as agricultural fertilizers are better seed germination and higher quality fruit production with longer shelf life; better use of soil nutrients; more productive crops and plants with greater resistance to unfavorable environmental conditions. Algae also have a long history of use as animal feed. They have a highly variable composition depending on the species collection season and habitat and on external conditions such as water temperature light intensity and nutrient concentration in water. In relation to ruminal fermentation a high variability of the digestibility values ​​was found among seaweed species and cannot be attributed only to the composition of different nutrients of the algae. The role of marine algae for reduction of methane production is discussed with particular emphasis on novel algae-based feed strategies that target minimal methane emissions without affecting the functionality of the microbiota and overall animal productivity.

Recognising and Responding to Animal Emotion in a Shared World

Recognising and Responding to Animal Emotion in a Shared World

How is it that depending on the setting the same cat can be perceived as a homeless annoyance a potential research subject or a thinking and feeling family member? The answer is bound up in our perception of non-human animals’ capacity to experience emotions and this book draws on contemporary evidence-based research observations interviews and anecdotal case scenarios to explore the growing knowledge base around animal emotion. Acknowledging that animals can experience feelings directly affects the way that they are perceived and treated in many settings and the author explores the implications when humans apply – or ignore – this knowledge selectively between species and within species. This information is presented within the unique context of a proposed hierarchy of perceived non-human animals' emotional abilities (often based on human interpretation of the animal’s emotional capacity) with examples of how this manifests at an emotional spiritual and moral level. Implications for specific groups living with caring for or working with non-human animals are examined making the book of particular interest to those working studying or researching in the veterinary professions; animal ethics law and welfare; and zoology biology and animal science. This book will also be fascinating reading for anyone interested in simply learning more about the animals with whom we share this planet. For some readers it will validate the reciprocal emotional bond they feel for living creatures. For others it will raise questions about the moral treatment of sentient non-human beings breaking down the human protective barrier of cognitive dissonance and activating a cycle of change. | Recognising and Responding to Animal Emotion in a Shared World
