Increasing Rumen Microbial Diversity in Goats Favours the Adaptation to High‐Concentrate Diets With Minor Effects on Feed Utilization

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 148-168, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Evolution has enabled ruminants to develop a complex rumen microbiota that aids in the digestion of fibrous feeds. This study examines whether promoting a highly diverse rumen microbiota during early life continues to offer long‐term benefits in modern dairy production systems, where young ruminants are reared without exposure to adult ...

Optimizing Growth Performance, Carcass Traits, and Economic Returns in Sasso T44 Chickens via Partial Replacement of Conventional Feed With Locally Sourced Alternative Ingredients

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Poultry farming plays a vital role in improving food security, income generation, and nutrition in Ethiopia, particularly for smallholder farmers. However, the high cost of conventional feed ingredients, such as maize and soybean meal (SBM), poses a significant challenge to sustainable poultry production.

Feeding Astragalus membranaceus Root Improves the Rumen Fermentation Rate in Housed Goats through the Alteration of the Rumen Community Composition

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Although Astragalus membranaceus root (AMR) has been noted as an ingredient in ruminant feed, the impacts of AMR feeding on rumen fermentation and the microbial community structure within the rumen are yet to be evaluated.
