Optimum Vitamin Nutrition for More Sustainable Ruminant Farming
Food production, particularly animal protein production, is ever evolving. In adaptation to change, producers are required to push the boundaries of productivity, efficiency, and the minimization of food waste by driving increasing standards in animal health and welfare, sustainability, and food quality. Optimizing vitamin nutrition is a valuable tool enabling a more sustainable beef and dairy production by enhancing animal welfare, robustness, performance and reducing food waste by improved product quality. Optimum Vitamin Nutrition for More Sustainable Ruminant Farming contains concise, up-to-date information on vitamin nutrition for ruminants. This book, which follows the authoritative Optimum Vitamin Nutrition in the Production of Quality Animal Foods (5m Books, 2013), is a reference for research and extension specialists who need the most current, research-based information on vitamins in ruminants. This book is the fourth of a series of books covering Optimum Vitamin Nutrition in poultry, swine and aquaculture.
Energy and protein metabolism and nutrition
Energy and Protein Metabolism and Nutrition is of increasing importance as greater efficiency and health benefits are sought in feed for animal production. Top scientists from around the world have collaborated in this book to exchange expertise and knowledge on the latest developments in the field. The topics range from tissue metabolism and regulation mechanisms to practical aspects of energy and protein nutrition and feeding. A better and deeper understanding of nutrient metabolism and nutrition can only be achieved by integrating the outcomes of scientists researching different aspects of this topic. In doing this practical outcomes are sought for the direct benefit of producers and consumers. Special topics such as the links between energy/protein metabolism and nutrition regarding food quality, nutrigenomics, environmental sustainability and animal welfare in relation to the topic are all explored. This book is a valuable resource to all researchers and industry professionals who concern themselves with animal nutrition.
Artificial Intelligence Applications and Innovations
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th IFIP WG 12.5 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications and Innovations, AIAI 2018, held in Rhodes, Greece, in May 2018. The 42 full papers and 12 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 88 submissions. They are organized in the following topical sections: social media, games, ontologies; deep learning; support vector machines; constraints; machine learning, regression, classification; neural networks; medical intelligence; recommender systems; optimization; learning, intelligence; heuristic approaches, cloud; fuzzy; and human and computer interaction, sound, video, processing.
Modeling Decisions for Artificial Intelligence
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Modeling Decisions for Artificial Intelligence, MDAI 2018, held in Mallorca, Spain, in October 2018. The 24 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The book also contains one invited talk in full paper length. The papers were organized in topical sections named: aggregation operators, fuzzy measures and integrals; decision making; clustering and classification; and data privacy and security.
Gut efficiency; the key ingredient in ruminant production
Globally, dairy and beef production has become an extremely competitive industry. While the world milk production is predicted to grow significantly by 2020 with the emergence of new consumers in developing countries, milk and meat production in the more establish markets now has to fulfil new societal needs beside the simple product supply: animal health, food safety, and production environmental impact are some of them. At the same time, the recent extreme increase in feed costs emphasizes again the key role of rumen and gut efficiency management in production economics. All these new thematic topics are central to the proper management of ruminant digestive process. Producers must endeavo...
In Vitro Digestibility in Animal Nutritional Studies
This book addresses various aspects of in vitro digestibility: • Application of meta-analyses and machine learning methods to predict methane production; • Methane production of sainfoin and alfalfa; • In vitro evaluation of different dietary methane mitigation strategies; • Rumen methanogenesis, rumen fermentation, and microbial community response; • The role of condensed tannins in the in vitro rumen fermentation kinetics; • Fermentation pattern of several carbohydrate sources; • Additive, synergistic, or antagonistic effects of plant extracts; • In vitro rumen degradation and fermentation characteristics of silage and hay; • In vitro digestibility, in situ degradability,...
