Abstract:
Livestock sector forms an important livelihood activity for farmers, through supporting agriculture and supplementing income in India. The lack of availability of sufficient feed is one of the major limiting factors for better productivity of livestock. The feed are of two types as roughages (high in crude fibrous material) available at public forest, farm lands, etc. and concentrates (high in nutrients and mixture of oil, coarse grain, and cereals). The general degradation of forest reduces the fodder availability, severely. Therefore, improving forest condition may provide pathways for susta

Agriculture and food industry waste constitutes a major proportion (32%) of world-wide agricultural production. Recovering of nutrients from currently wasted resources and their utilization as feed resource with application of proper processing technologies will help curb the danger of gap between increasing livestock population and available feed resources to meet increasing population demands. Demand for processed foods increased tremendously due to altered lifestyle choice of global consumers with subsequent release of waste production from these processing plants.

Amongst the cannery wastes, pea pods (PP) had the highest CP content, sarsonsaag waste (SSW) had that of cell wall constituents(CWC). Carrot pulp (CARP) had the lowest CP, NDF, ADF and ADL contents. The water soluble sugars (WSS) were highest in CARP, while the true protein content and total phenolics were highest in citrus pulp without peels (CPWP).The in-saccoDM degradability revealed that CPWP had the highest effective degradability (ED) and low rumen fill values, which was responsible for hig

This paper analyzes the end uses—food, feed, fiber, fuel, and exports—of biomass production in the U.S. in 1997, 2002, 2007, and 2012. They are also analyzed at the state level in 2012. Biomass production is measured as human appropriation of net primary production (HANPP), an ecological footprint measured as carbon fixed through photosynthesis, derived from data on crop, timber and grazing yields. HANPP was allocated to end uses using publicly available sources from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and internet-based sources publishing data on agricultural trade. HANPP was 717–834 megatons

Abstract:
The livestock sector is essential for food supply and economic benefits, but it emits greenhouse gases during enteric fermentation and livestock manure treatment. This study evaluates carbon neutrality scenarios based on the 2050 NDC and calculates greenhouse gas emissions and reduction potential based on current and projected livestock numbers. Key mitigation strategies include using low-methane feed, reducing nitrogen emissions in manure treatment by decreasing crude protein in feed, and increasing the proportion of energy recovery from pig manure.

Abstract:
In preparing potato chips for the fast food industry a proportion of the material produced is rejected. Although the composition of these partially-fried chips would suggest that the chips should be fed to non-ruminant livestock, the bulky wet nature of the material precludes this option for many. Therefore a substantial proportion of the chips produced are fed to ruminants especially to growing cattle. Little is known about the rumen digestion of such materials. The aim of the experiment was therefore to evaluate potato chips as a ruminant feed.

Animal feed ingredients, especially those abundant in high quality protein, are the most expensive component of livestock production. Sustainable alternative feedstocks may be sourced from abundant, low value agricultural byproducts. California almond production generates nearly 3 Mtons of biomass per year with about 50% in the form of hulls. Almond hulls are a low-value byproduct currently used primarily for animal feed for dairy cattle. However, the protein and essential amino acid content are low, at ~30% d.b..

Vegetables regarded as unsalable at processing often undergo disposal into landfill, threatening food security and increasing emissions through decomposition. Ensiling vegetables with forage crops is a suggested method of waste reduction that could also double as a livestock feed. Carrot or pumpkin, ensiled at 0%, 20% or 40% DM with crop sorghum, and with or without a second-generation silage inoculant were assessed for nutritive composition, organic acid profiles, aerobic stability and in vitro rumen fermentation characteristics.

The use of natural gas in the heat treatment of feed reduces the cost of livestock products and increases competitiveness in the foreign market. An analysis of various modifications of gas-using digesters with a wide range of performance and design, offered by the foreign market, showed that their common disadvantage is the lack of automatic gas flow control in proportion to the heat flow used to heat the feed to boiling and during boiling. An energy-saving fodder boiler with an automatic gas flow control system in proportion to the consumed heat flow has been developed. The studies were carri

In Canada, approximately 11.2 million metric tons of avoidable food waste (FW) is produced per year. Preservation of a greater proportion of this FW for use as livestock feed would have significant environmental and socioeconomic benefits. Therefore, this study blended discarded fruits, vegetables, and bakery products from grocery stores into silage to assess the ability to preserve their nutritional value and contribute to the feed supply. Two treatments for reducing the water content of FW were evaluated, sun-dried (SD) and passive-dried (PD), and compared to control (C) using laboratory min

However, the proportion of farms with forage shrub plantings and the extent of those plantings remain relatively low, with the rate of new plantings slowing over the past decade.

However, the region has limited share (approximately 1%) of meat products to the world market due to the failure to satisfy the minimal quality standard.
