Nutrient digestibility and balance studies

open access: yesMethods in cattle physiology and behaviour – Recommendations from the SmartCow consortium., 2020
The nutritional value of a feed for cattle depends on its nutrient and energy contents, the extent of rumen fermentation and degradation, and the post-ruminal digestibility. Efficiency of digestion depends on different factors, for example, the apparent digestibility (estimated by subtracting the nutrients contained in faeces from the nutrients ...

Urban nutrient balance for Bangkok [PDF]

open access: yesEcological Modelling, 2001
To enhance agricultural sustainability, former linkages between agriculture and urban waste production should be reintroduced. Therefore, to explore the options for recycling of nutrients from mega-cities, a nutrient balance model was developed. The parameterization were established for the Bangkok Province and considers nitrogen (N) and phosphorous ...
