AIoT Precision Feeding Management System

Electronics, 2022
Different fish species and different growth stages require different amounts of fish pellets. Excessive fish pellets increase the cost of aquaculture, and the leftover fish pellets sink to the bottom of the fish farm. This causes water pollution in the fish farm. Weather changes and providing too many or too little fish pellets affect the growth of the

Estimating Amino Acid Requirements in Real-Time for Precision-Fed Pigs: The Challenge of Variability among Individuals

Animals, 2021
This study aimed to measure protein deposition (PD) in pigs fed with daily tailored diets where either dietary lysine (Lys) or threonine (Thr) were provided at independent levels (ignoring an ideal ratio).

Can field-based mosquito feeding assays be used for evaluating transmission-blocking interventions? [PDF]

, 2012
A recent meta-analysis of mosquito feeding assays to determine the Plasmodium falciparum transmission potential of naturally infected gametocyte carriers highlighted considerable variation in transmission efficiency between assay methodologies and ...

Feeding Behavior of Finishing Pigs under Diurnal Cyclic Heat Stress

Animals, 2023
The impact of cyclic heat stress (CHS) and turning the lights on and off on pig feeding behavior (FB) was investigated. The FB of 90 gilts was recorded in real-time under two ambient temperatures (AT): thermoneutrality (TN, 22 °C) or CHS (22/35 °C).

Standardized Preparation for Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in Pigs

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The intestine of pigs harbors a mass of microorganisms which are essential for intestinal homeostasis and host health. Intestinal microbial disorders induce enteric inflammation and metabolic dysfunction, thereby causing adverse effects on the growth and

Sequential feeding with diets varying in amino acid content for growing-finishing pigs

Scientia Agricola, 2020
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of daily phase feeding (DP) and sequential feeding (SEQ) on the feeding behavior, performance, and body composition of growing-finishing pigs.

Lactobacillus gasseri LA39 Activates the Oxidative Phosphorylation Pathway in Porcine Intestinal Epithelial Cells

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Intestinal microbial interactions with the host epithelium have important roles in host health. Our previous data have suggested that Lactobacillus gasseri LA39 is the predominant intestinal Lactobacillus in weaned piglets.

FeederAnt - An autonomous mobile unit feeding outdoor pigs [PDF]

, 2007
Small robots and the concept of decentralized animal husbandry make it possible to renew the principles of organic agriculture. The farm animals will be able to use the same type of housing and are placed integrated with the fields.

On the use of on-cow accelerometers for the classification of behaviours in dairy barns [PDF]

, 2019
Analysing behaviours can provide insight into the health and overall well-being of dairy cows. Automatic monitoring systems using e.g., accelerometers are becoming increasingly important to accurately quantify cows' behaviours as the herd size increases.
