Precision feeding can significantly reduce lysine intake and nitrogen excretion without compromising the performance of growing pigs

Animal, 2016
This study was developed to assess the impact on performance, nutrient balance, serum parameters and feeding costs resulting from the switching of conventional to precision-feeding programs for growing–finishing pigs.

Precision feeding: Innovative management of broiler breeder feed intake and flock uniformity

Poultry Science, 2017
Achieving high lifetime productivity with broiler breeder flocks is challenging because feed restriction intensity continues to increase due to selection for efficient, fast growing, and high yielding broilers. Flock uniformity is compromised by intense competition for limited feed.

PREDICTING FEEDING COST OF GAIN WITH MORE PRECISION [PDF]

, 1999
Costs during the feeding period, commonly summarized as "feeding cost of gain", are primary determinants of cattle feeding profits. This study provides a method of generalizing information available at placement time into a suitable feeding cost of gain ...

Dietary Qi-Weng-Huangbo powder enhances growth performance, diarrhoea and immune function of weaned piglets by modulating gut health and microbial profiles

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionThe evolution of nutritional strategies to improve the gut health and microbiota profiles of early-weaned piglets is essential to reduce diarrhoea caused by weaning stress.

Dietary ellagic acid supplementation attenuates intestinal damage and oxidative stress by regulating gut microbiota in weanling piglets

Animal Nutrition, 2022
Intestinal oxidative stress triggers gut microbiota dysbiosis, which is involved in the etiology of post-weaning diarrhea and enteric infections. Ellagic acid (EA) can potentially serve as an antioxidant supplement to facilitate weaning transition by ...

Development of a Precision Feeding System with Hierarchical Control for Gestation Units Using Stalls

Applied Sciences, 2023
To obtain good productive performance, sows have different nutrition requirements at different gestation periods. However, in gestation stalls, conventional feeders have large relative errors, management is difficult because of the large numbers of sows,

Modulation of Gut Microbial Community and Metabolism by Dietary Glycyl-Glutamine Supplementation May Favor Weaning Transition in Piglets

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in diet nutrient metabolism and maintaining host health. The synthetic dipeptides glycyl-glutamine (Gly-Gln) used as diet supplementation to improve the weaning transition of newborns could be metabolized by certain ...

Statistical modelling of voluntary feed intake in individual Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Precision feeding aims to provide the correct amount of feed to farmed animals for optimal growth and performance and to avoid feed waste. However, knowledge underlying the meal-to-meal variability in voluntary feed intake of farmed species is still ...
