BASIC NUTRITION
The most forgotten nutrient
WATER
First limiting amino acid in poultry
METHIONINE
True or false. Animal proteins in general are low in some essential amino acids and containing anti-nutritional factors, thus the inclusion levels are limited
FALSE
PROTEIN OF ANIMAL ORIGIN HAS GOOD SOURCE OF AMINO ACIDS, CALCIUM AND PHOSPHORUS, DOES NOT CONTAIN ANTI-NUTRITIONAL FACTORS
True or false. An increase in diet digestibility resulted in a decreased in feed intake
FALSE
AN INCREASE IN (10%) DIET DIGESTIBILITY RESULTED IN (110%) INCREASE IN FEED INTAKE
True or false. Birds have no sweat gland
TRUE
The most expensive nutrient and at least 80% of the total feed intake of most animals
ENERGY
True or false. 20 amino acids make up the animal proteins 12 non-essential and 8 essential amino acids
FALSE
20 amino acids
10 essential and 10 non-essential
The most economical source of protein
SOYBEAN MEAL
Key components of sow's milk, 30% of milk dry matter
LACTOSE
Also known as the true stomach, glandular stomach where digestion begins, food has not yet been ground up
PROVENTRICULUS
Source of energy that is 2.25 times the amount of energy as cereal grains
FATS
As body weight increases, lysine requirement (as % of the diet) _________
DECREASES
The cheapest source of animal protein
PORKMEAL
The major energy-yielding component of the diet of piglets. It contributes more than double the digestible energy compared with that of from dietary fiber
STARCH
An out-pocketing of the esophagus located just outside the body cavity in the neck region, temporary storage
CROP
Type of energy wherein gross energy less the energy losses via urine and gas
METABOLIZABLE ENERGY / ME
Give one advantage of using ideal protein (IP)
IP - a balance of amino acids that will cover the requirements of the animal. Lysine is always set as 100%, all other amino acids are expressed as percentage of lysine
1. BALANCED AMINO ACID COMPOSIITON CAN BE FED
2. OVER AND UNDER FEEDING OF AMINO ACIDS ARE AVOIDED
3. AMINO ACID EXCRETION IN URINE IS MINIMIZED
4. LESS FOUL ODOUR OF MANURE
5 MAXIMUM PROTEIN SYNTHESIS IS SUPPORTED
Give one anti-nutritional factor in plant protein sources
1. PHYTIC ACID
2. NON-STARCH POLYSACCHARIDE
3. PROTEASE INHIBITORS
4. ANTIGENIC COMPOUNDS
Sow's milk contains how many % fat on dry matter basis
40%
Referred to as the mechanical stomach, made up of 2 strong muscles which act as the bird's teeth
VENTRICULUS/GIZZARD
Give 2 factors affecting energy requirement
1. BODY SIZE
2. STATE OF PRODUCTION
3. ENVIRONMENT
What are the two indispensable fatty acid
LINOLEIC ACID
LINOLENIC ACID
Under what category does Porkmeal should poses in order to be fit for animal feed
CATEGORY 3
CATEGORY 1&2 - LOW QUALITY, USUALLY USED AS FERTILIZER THUS, CHEAPER, UNFIT FOR ANIMAL FEED
Modern sows can produce how many li of milk/day
10-12 LI/DAY
Unusual color and appearance in birds' dropping/feces indicate an infection or disease. What is the cause of having greenish droppings
Droppings with blood – coccidiosis
Greenish droppings – late stage of worms
White milky runny droppings – worms, coccidiosis, gumboro disease
Brown runny droppings – E. Coli
Clear or watery runny droppings – stress, Infectious bronchitis
Yellow and foamy droppings – coccidiosis
Grayish white and running continuously – vent gleet (a chronic disease of the cloaca of domestic birds
