The interactive CD-ROM contains formulation templates for eleven different breeds of domestic animals. Each may be used to formulate a balanced ration from available feedstuffs or to evaluate an existing ration for nutrient balance. There are 11 different applications for 11 different types of domestic animals. Each may be used to formulate a balanced ration from available feedstuffs or to evaluate an existing ration for nutrient balance. The CD-ROM is operated by six buttons on the home display: 1. Input Animal. 2. Select Feeds. 3. Make Ration. 4. Blend Feedstuffs. 5. View Blends. 6. Print Ration or Blend.

The latest edition of this classic text, now in a larger format with improved artwork, continues to provide a clear and comprehensive introduction to the science and practice of animal nutrition. Animal Nutrition covers four main areas. Chapters 1-9 explain the basic chemistry and biochemistry of feed constituents, digestion and metabolism; Chapters 10-18 evaluate the energy and nutrient content of feedstuffs and discuss the assessment of nutritional requirements and ration formulation; Chapters 19-25 describe the characteristics of commonly used feedstuffs such as forages, concentrates and by-products; and the Appendix provides comprehensive tables on the composition of foods and feeding standards for dairy and beef cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry, and horses.

Feedstuff Evaluation contains the proceedings of the 50th University of Nottingham Easter School in Agricultural Sciences, held at Sutton Bonington in July 1989. The book presents papers discussing a wide range of topics on the accurate evaluation of feedstuffs for livestock. Initially, systems of expressing the nutritive value of feeds are considered. Modifications to feeding value as influenced by animal factors including intake and palatability are discussed. Specific dietary ingredients, being plant polysaccharides, fats, minerals and vitamins are detailed. Prediction of the nutritive value of compound feeds and individual feeds through classical wet chemistry and the more recent NIR is assuming considerable importance in the rapid evaluation of diets. Associated with these developments is an appreciation of the relevance of both inter- and intra-laboratory variation in determinations. Finally, the need to collate information into an interactive data-base is being actively pursued. It is evident that safety of animal feeds is becoming an increasingly topical issue and the last session considered the relevance of naturally-occurring toxic factors, residues, mycotoxins and, finally, animal pathogens. Veterinarians, farmers, farm administrators, and those involved in every aspect of nutrient supply to animals will find the compendium very insightful and informative.

Authors Marshall Jurgens and Kristjan Bregendahl have been joined by new authors Josie Coverdale and Stephanie Hansen to create the 11th edition of Animal Feeding and Nutrition. Animal Feeding and Nutrition is written in a clear and concise outline format, reducing the vast amount of reading sometimes necessary for complete coverage of feeding practices. Animal Feeding and Nutrition is organized around four basic topics, giving your students all the information they'll need to understand the applied concepts of animal feeds and feeding methods: The Nutrients - classifications, recommended levels, and an up-to-date review of nutrients and digestion Feedstuffs and Feed Additives - classification, characteristics, preparation, feeding laws and regulation Procedures in Ration Formulization Feeding Requirements and Guides The 11th edition of Animal Feeding and Nutrition features: Updated information on equine nutrition and adheres to the 2007 daily nutrition requirements values. Coverage of new feed ingredients (enzymes, byproducts). Information on how to make 'biosecure diets' with reference to Salmonella control. Increased terminology within the glossary. Examples of various problem-solving and ration-formulation techniques that help your students with procedures in mathematical solutions. Expanded information on implants for growth stimulation. Updated information on feeding systems. An Instructor's Manual with over 12 student exercises.
