Individual and Combined Effects of Black Cumin Seeds and Turmeric Powder on Performance and Egg Quality Traits in Laying Hens. [PDF]
The experiment investigated dietary supplementation of black cumin seed and turmeric powder in laying hens. Four treatments were applied: control, 1% black cumin, 1% turmeric, and a 0.5% combination. Productive performance, feed conversion ratio, egg quality parameters, and shell characteristics were measured to evaluate the efficacy of these ...

ABSTRACT Background Over half of global soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks are stored in subsoil. A larger fraction of carbon (C) input may be retained and stabilized in subsoil as compared to topsoil. This retained fraction determines C sequestration efficiency, which may also depend on the amount of C input.

The Inclusion of Hermetia Illucens Larvae Meal in the Diet of Laying Hens (Hy-Line Brown) Affects the Caecal Bacterial Composition and Diversity. [PDF]
This study evaluated partial replacement of soybean meal with Hermetia illucens larvae meal in laying hens’ diets. While alpha diversity was unaffected, beta diversity revealed distinct microbial profiles among treatments. A 50% replacement enriched beneficial genera (Alistipes, Parabacteroides, Butyricimonas) and reduced potentially harmful taxa ...

Laying hens in furnished cages [PDF]
Concern for the welfare of laying hens housed in conventional cages has led to a change of the Animal Welfare Legislation in Sweden, implying that cages must provide possibilities for hens to lay eggs in a nest, to rest on a perch and to use litter. Such
