Recent advances in animal nutrition-- 1985 /

Recent Advances in Animal Nutrition - 1985 focuses on the different compositions of animal feeds. The book first discusses the prediction of energy value of compound seeds. Existing methods for the prediction of metabolizable energy (ME) or digestible energy (DE) from chemical composition; poultry a...
