Feeding: Neural Control of Intake
Annual Review of Physiology, 1971The year 1969-1970 was one of the most fruitful in the realm of feeding systems. New developments included aphagia produced without finickiness, glucose deprivation receptors revealed in the lateral hypothalamus, recovery of feeding shown to match ontogenetic development, electrically elicited feeding changed into drinking, hypothalamic aversion ...

The feed intake of grazing cattle. II. The influence of size of animal on feed intake
Animal Science, 19611. Two experiments each with 3 dry cows, 3 heifers and 3 calves were carried out in 1959 and 1960 under uniform continuous grazing conditions on a ryegrass-white clover sward to measure individual feed intake by the chromic oxide-faecal nitrogen method. 2.

Effects of lactoferrin feeding on growth, feed intake and health of calves
Archives of Animal Nutrition, 2007Lactoferrin (LF) exhibits a broad spectrum of anti-microbial properties and may have regulatory functions in the immune system. In the present study, 40 calves (20 males, 20 females) were used to examine the effects of supplemental bovine LF added to colostrum and milk replacer (at 0.16%) on health, weight development and feed intake during a 70-day ...

Longitudinal analysis of body weight, feed intake and residual feed intake in F2 chickens
Livestock Science, 2016The aim of this study was to estimate covariance functions, using B-spline random regression models for body weight (BW), feed intake (FI) and residual feed intake (RFI) in F2 chickens. Feed intake and body weight were recorded on each bird every week from 2 to 10 weeks of age.

Food Intakes in a Group of Breast-Feeding and not Breast-Feeding Mothers
2005The relation between mother's diet and breast milk composition is still an open question. An important issue is whether mothers who are breast feeding modify, respect to before lactation, food intake to satisfy the increased requirements.

Tropical Animal Health and Production
This study aimed to evaluate the performance, feed efficiency, feeding behavior, and cortisol concentrations of lambs ranked into different groups of Residual Feed Intake (RFI) and Residual Intake and Gain (RIG). Forty Santa Inês lambs with a mean initial age of 120 ± 30 days and mean initial (IBW) and final body weight (FBW) of 28.9 ± 3.2 and 43.7 ± 3.

Journal of animal science, 2011
Residual feed intake (RFI) is a measure of feed efficiency defined as the difference between observed and predicted feed intake based on average requirements for growth and maintenance. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of selection for decreased RFI on feeding behavior traits and to estimate their relationships with RFI.
