Feed utilisation, physiological and meat quality responses in Jumbo quail reared on apple pomace-containing diets
(North-West University (South Africa), 2023)Quail (Coturnix sp.) farming has enormous potential to contribute to global food production and nutritional security by supplying high-quality animal protein to meet the nutritional demands of the rapidly growing human ... -
Growth performance, hematology, and meat quality characteristics of Mutton Merino lambs fed canola-based diets
(Springer, 2016)A 56-day feeding trial was carried out to evaluate the effect of feeding canola meal (CM) on growth performance, hematology, and meat quality parameters of lambs. Twenty lambs with an average body weight of 23 ± 2.64 kg ... -
Growth performance, meat quality, and haematological parametersinmutton merino lambs : effects of dietary replacement of soyabean meal with canola cake
(North-West University (South Africa), 2015)The objective of this study was to determine growth performance, hematology, meat quality and sensory characteristics of lambs fed Canola (Brassica napus) cake as a replacement for soyabean meal (SBM). Nineteen lambs with ... -
Improving the feed value of seaweed for broiler chickens using feed enzymes
(North-West University (South Africa), 2023)The study aimed to enhance the feed value of green seaweed (Ulva sp.) meal using exogenous feed enzymes in the diets of Cobb 500 broiler chickens. Chapter One provides the background, problem statement, justification, aims ... -
Inclusion of mopane worm meal in Jumbo quail diets : nutrient utilization, physiological and meat quality responses
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)There is an urgent need to mitigate the negative impact of soybean production on the environment while ensuring sustainable poultry production to meet the protein requirements for the growing human population. Insect ... -
Insect meal (Hermetia illucens) as an alternative protein source for Jumbo quails : physiological and meat quality traits
(North-West University (South Africa), 2019)Globally, soybean (Glycine max) meal is used as a standard vegetable protein source for poultry feeds. However, due to the negative ecological impact of soybean production, alternative natural and inexpensive protein ... -
A nutritional assessment of Moringa oleifera leaf meal for chickens commonly reared under extensive production systems : Effect on growth performance, serum biochemistry, and meat quality
(North-West University (South Africa), 2015)Poultry production in most rural parts of South Africa is characterized by small scavenging operations. Indigenous chickens which are considered to be of low productivity due to poor growth rate, few eggs produced, high ... -
Optimizing voluntary intake and utilization of Moringa oleifera leaf meal in Jumbo quail
(North-West University (South Africa), 2023)Moringa oleifera is nutraceutical plant that possesses antimicrobial, antioxidant, and immune- boosting bioactive compounds with potential to control the growth of pathogenic microorganisms, bolster animal growth performance ...
