A study involving nutrient balances and radioisotope labeling techniques was undertaken to study energy and protein metabolism, and glucose kinetics of female crossbred Etawah goats, using 12 weaned (BW $14.0{\pm}2.0kg$), 12 late pregnant (BW $27.8{\pm}1.8kg$) and 12 first lactation does (BW $25.0{\pm}5.0kg$). Each class of animal was randomly allotted into 3 dietary treatment groups R1, R2 and R3, that received 100%, 85%, and 70% of ad libitum feed. The rations offered were pellets containing 21.8% CP and 19.3 MJ GE/kg, except for the lactating does who received pellets (17.2% CP and 18.9 MJ GE/kg) and fresh Penisetum purpureum grass. Energy and nitrogen balance studies were conducted during a two-week trial. Daily heat production (HP, estimated by the carbon dioxide entry rate technique), glucose pool and flux were measured. Equations were found for metabolizable energy (ME) and protein intake (IP) requirements for growing goats: ME (MJ/d)=1.87+0.55 RE-0.001 ADG+0.044 RP $(R^2=0.89)$ and IP (g/d)=48.47+2.99 RE+0.029 ADG+0.79 RP $(R^2=0.90)$; for pregnant does: ME (MJ/d)=5.92+0.96 RE-0.002 ADG+0.003 RP $(R^2=0.99)$ and IP (g/d)=58.34+5.41 RE+0.625 ADG-0.30 RP $(R^2=0.98)$; and for lactating does: ME (MJ/d)=4.23+0.713 RE+0.003 ADG+0.006 RP+0.002 MY $(R^2=0.86)$; IP (g/d)=84.05-5.36 RE+0.055 ADG-0.16 RP+0.068 MY $(R^2=0.45)$, where RE is retained energy (MJ/d), ADG is average daily gain in weight (g/d), RP is retained protein (g/d) and MY is milk yield (ml/d). ME and IP requirements for maintenance for growing goats were 0.46 MJ/d.kg $BW^{0.75}$ and 7.43 g/d.kg $BW^{0.75}$, respectively. Values for the pregnant and lactating does were in the same order, 0.55 MJ/d.kg $BW^{0.75}$ and 11.7 g/d.kg $BW^{0.75}$, and 0.50 MJ/d.kg $BW^{0.75}$ and 10.8 g/d.kg $BW^{0.75}$, respectively. Milk protein ranged from 3.06 to 3.5% and milk fat averaged 5.2%. Glucose metabolism in Etawah crossbred female goat is active, but glucose flux is low compared to temperate ruminant breeds which may implicate its role to support production.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of 3-nitrooxypropanol (NOP) on gas production, rumen fermentation, and animal performances depending on animal type using a meta-analysis approach. A database consisted of data from 14 studies, 18 experiments and 55 treatments. The supplementation of NOP linearly decreased methane (CH₄) emissions [g/kg dry matter intake (DMI)] regardless of animal type and length of experimental period (beef, p < 0.0001, R² = 0.797; dairy, p = 0.0003, R² = 0.916; and long term, p < 0.0001, R² = 0.910). The total volatile fatty acids (VFA) concentration and the proportion of acetate, based on beef cattle database, were significantly decreased with increasing NOP supplementation (p = 0.0015, R² = 0.804 and p = 0.0003, R² = 0.918), whereas other individual VFAs was increased. Based on the dairy database, increasing levels of NOP supplementation linearly decreased proportion of acetate (p = 0.0284, R² = 0.769) and increased that of valerate (p = 0.0340, R² = 0.522), regardless of significant change on other individual VFAs. In animal performances, the DMI, from beef cattle database, tended to decrease when the levels of NOP supplementation increased (p = 0.0574, R² = 0.170), whereas there was no significant change on DMI from dairy cattle database. The NOP supplementation tended to decrease milk yield (p = 0.0606, R² = 0.381) and increase milk fat and milk protein (p = 0.0861, R² = 0.321, p = 0.0838, R² = 0.322). NOP is a viable candidate as a feed additive because of its CH₄ mitigation effects, regardless of animal type and experiment period, without adverse effects on animal performances.

Black Bengal goat is primarily reared for meat, skin comes here as a by-product. The present trial describes the effect of age on different carcass characteristics of Black Bengal goats of either sex. A total of 61 Black Bengal goats of different age and sex groups were slaughtered. They were reared under semi-intensive management on milk alone or with concentrates (of 10.14 MJ ME and 10.48 g M/kg DM) and freshly cut Napier grass (2 MJ ME and 25 g CP/kg of fresh matter) that provides the estimated NRC (1981) requirement. The four age groups were: pre-weaned kids (0-90 day), post-weaned kids (91-180 days), growing (181-365 days) and adult (>365 days). Goats were slaughtered according to 'Halal' method by severing the major vessels of the throat by a transverse cut. Different slaughter parameters of Black Bengal goat can be best predicted from the equations as follows: live weight (kg)=0.801 (shoulder height (cm))-24.32, ($r^{2}$=0.94); carcass weight (kg)=0.364 (height at hind legs (cm))-11.54, ($r^{2}$=0.91); edible weight (kg)=0.623 (shoulder height (cm))-19.94, ($r^{2}$=0.91) and saleable weight (kg)=0.701 (shoulder height (cm))-21.99, ($r^{2}$=0.92). Live weight, carcass weight, edible weight and saleable weight of castrated goat at one-year onward ranges from 20-22, 9.4-10.5, 14-16 and 16.6-18.8 kg, respectively, which are about 80% higher than most of the reported observations on Black Bengal goat of same age and sex. Slaughter weight, warm carcass weight, edible weight and saleable weight increased curvilinearly with age of slaughter but not affected (p>0.05) by sex. However, linearity of the response curve of affect of age on mentioned parameters ends at around 9 months. Visceral fat as per cent of live weight increased curvilinearly with age and attain its maximum (about 6%) at about 500 days. However, linear part of the quadratic model ends at about 300 days when visceral fat content is about 4.8% of body weight. Blood and skin yield for one-year old male goat was 797 g and 1.61 kg, respectively. Absolute yield of blood and skin increased curvilinealry and attained maximum level at about 400 days (13.3 months). Average proportion of different carcass cut were - round 27%, rump 7%, loin 10%, ribs (6-12th) 14%, shoulder 21%, Neck 7%, chest 14%. Thigh and shoulder constituted about 48.3% of the cold carcass weight. Overall crude protein content of meat samples of different carcass cuts progressively decreased with age starting from 57 at 0-90 days to 58, 47 and 33 per cent, respectively at 91-180, 181-365 and >365 days, respectively. Overall meat fat content increased almost linearly from 11.1% during 91-180 days to 22.9 and 39.5% during 181-365 and >365days, respectively. Results from this trial suggest that both carcass yield and carcass composition changes with age; and sex have little or no effect on carcass yield and carcass composition. However, caution should be made in using second conclusion as there were few female animals slaughtered relative to the male. Optimum slaughter age for Black Bengal goat reared under semi-intensive management with adequate feeding and management would be about 9 months when their live weight, warm carcass weight, edible and saleable weight of carcass can be about 16.74, 7.28, 12.05 and 13.81 kg, respectively.

본 연구는 6종류의 완전배합발효사료(Total mixed fermentation feed; TMFF)의 착유우에 대한 영양적 가치를 구명하고자 수행되었다. 옥수수, 혼합목초, 호맥, 유채, 알팔파 및 연맥의 6종의 사료작물 청예가 수확되었고, 볏짚과 밀기울이 배합되었으며, 옥수수와 콩알곡을 배합하였다. 그리고 각각의 배합물들은 40톤 규모의 트렌치 사일로에 진압 저장하였으며, 성분분석과 젖소 급여시험을 위해 최소 60일 이상 경과 후에 개봉하였다. TMFF의 평균 건물 함량은 23.98${\sim}$28.42% 범위였으며, 조단백질 함량은 16.2${\sim}$19.2%이었고, 가소화영양소총량(TDN)은 58.3${\sim}$65.1% 수준이었다. ADF 함량은 34.4${\sim}$39.6% 범위에서, NDF 함량은 46.9${\sim}$49.9% 범위를 나타내어 상대적사료가치(RFV)는 유채-, 알팔파-, 혼합목초-, 연맥-, 옥수수-. 호맥-TMFF에서 각각 138.6, 133.9, 116.5, 111.8, 111.4, 108.1으로 나타나, 호맥-TMFF의 것이 유의하게 낮은 것으로 나타내었다(P<0.05). 건물손실율은 0.8${\sim}$1.9% 범위로서 모든 TMFF에서 양호한 발효와 보관상태를 나타내었으며, pH는 전체적으로 3.89${\sim}$4.87이었으며, 암모니아태질소($NH_3$-N) 함량은 6.93-8.66 mg/㎗이었다. 그리고 TMFF 원물내의 휘발성지방산 함량 중 초산 함량은 0.19${\sim}$0.57% 낮은 함량을 나타내었고, 젖산 함량은 1.17${\sim}$3.21%으로 매우 높게 나타내었으며, 부틸산 함량은 0.03${\sim}$0.32%로서 매우 낮게 나타나 TMFF의 품질이 양호한 것으로 나타내었다. 그리고 발효가 완료된 TMFF를 평균 착유일수 240일, 2.4산차, 44.3개월령, 일일산유량 21.2 kg, 체중 574.6 kg, 체충실지수(BCS) 3.2인 42두에 무제한으로 급여하여 총 60일간의 섭취량 조사와 월별 체중 및 BCS를 조사한 결과, 초종별 TMFF의 평균 일일 총 섭취량은 알팔파-, 혼합목초-, 유채-, 옥수수-, 연맥-, 호맥-TMFF구에서 62.85, 60.48, 58.04, 57.11, 54.61, 45.74 kg의 순서로 각각 높게 나타내어 전체적으로 기호성이 우수한 것으로 나타내었으며, 호맥-TMFF구의 기호성이 가장 낮게 나타내었다(P<0.05). 이때 젖소의 체중에 대한 TMFF의 건물섭취율은 1.95${\sim}$2.90%로서 모든 TMFF의 기호성이 매우 우수한 것을 알 수 있었다. TMFF의 급여시험기간 중의 체중변화와 체충실지수(BCS)에 있어서 시험기간 60일 동안 모든 공시축에서 체중증가가 있었으며, 기간의 평균 두당 일당증체량은 140.0${\sim}$326.7g으로서 기호성이 가장 좋았던 알팔파-TMFF구에서 역시 가장 높은 증체를 보였으며, 기호성이 가장 낮았던 호맥-TMFF구에서 가장 낮은 증체를 나타내었다(P<0.05). 신체충실지수의 변화에 있어서는 혼합목초-TMFF구가 개시시의 3.07에서 3.34로 가장 크게 증가하였고, 호맥-TMFF구에서 3.34에서 3.30으로 약간 감소하여 나타냄으로서 증체량과 신체충실지수와는 비슷한 경향을 보였으나 일치하지는 않은 것으로 나타내었다(P<0.05). 그리고 평균 두당 우유생산성은 알팔파-, 연맥-, 혼합목초-, 옥수수-, 유채-, 호맥-TMFF구의 순서로 일일평균 16.16-18.95 kg 범위에서 시험구간에 유의한 차이를 나타내었으며(P<0.05), 일일 산유량의 변화에 있어서는 시험개시시의 평균 21.2kg에서 60일 후 시험 종료시에 모든 시험구에서 5kg 정도 감소하여 나타내었는데, 이는 시험종료시는 대부분의 시험축의 착유일수가 300일 이상의 비유말기에 이르렀기 때문으로 사료된다. 우유의 성분 함량에 있어서 시험기간 중 평균지방 함량은 전체적으로 4.06${\sim}$4.79% 범위에서 매우 높은 유지방 함량을 나타내어 유채-, 혼합목초-, 옥수수-, 알팔파-, 호맥-, 연맥- TMFF구의 순서로 높았으며, 단백질 함량은 3.15${\sim}$3.54% 범위에서 혼합목초-, 옥수수-, 유채-, 호맥-, 연맥-, 알팔파-TMFF구의 순서로 높게 나타내었다. 또한, 유당 함량에 있어서는 전체 평균이 4.56% 내외로서 서로 비슷한 함량을 나타내었으며, 무지고형분량과 총 고형분 함량에 있어서도 전체 평균이 8.75%와 12.8% 내외로 시험구간에 차이가 없는 것으로 나타내었는데, TMFF 급여에 의해 우유중 성분 함량에 있어서 어떠한 경향을 찾을 수 없었다.

Over 40 per cent Indian population needs to be attended for nutritional improvement. Traditional nutritious food resources though abundantly available but presently less used, if incorporated in the diets, can yield low-cost nutritionally balanced diets. The linear programming (LP)model was used for optimization of food resources to satisfy protein -energy requirements of hard working rural poor. Soybean-a highly nutritious food legume-available at reasonably low price was included along with chick -pea and pigeon -pea for comparison .The three cereals predominantly used in Indian diets -rice, wheat and sorghum -and three typical leafy vegetables namely, spinach , drumstick leaves and rajagira (Amaranths paniculantus) leaves were used for optimization . The contribution of food legume was restricted to supply only 50 per cent of daily protein requirement for maximum protein value. The quantities of other food stuffs namely , milk , sugar , tubers etc. were restricted to nati nal per capita availability. the nutrition satisfaction levels in per cent RDA by the model are 149-250 for protein , 51-106 for fat, 134-362 for iron an d143-1158 for Vitamin-A. Quantities of food legumes, cereals and leafy vegetables ranged from 289-601, 3000-3700 and 360-1200 g/day respectively for a reference family of five hard working rural poor. Daily food resources cost ranged from US$ 0.6 to 1.0 for the family. Amongst food legumes, soybean based diet combinations provide maximum nutritional benefits at minimum cost indicating its suitability for wider adoption by hard working poor.

The objective of this research was to determine the prevalence, risk factors and consequent effect of dystocia on lactation performance in Holstein dairy cows in Iran. The data set consisted of 55,577 calving records on 30,879 Holstein cows in 30 dairy herds for the period March 2000 to April 2009. Factors affecting dystocia were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression models through the maximum likelihood method in the GENMOD procedure. The effect of dystocia on lactation performance and factors affecting calf birth weight were analyzed using mixed linear model in the MIXED procedure. The average incidence of dystocia was 10.8% and the mean (SD) calf birth weight was 42.13 (5.42) kg. Primiparous cows had calves with lower body weight and were more likely to require assistance at parturition (p<0.05). Female calves had lower body weight, and had a lower odds ratio for dystocia than male calves (p<0.05). Twins had lower birth weight, and had a higher odds ratio for dystocia than singletons (p<0.05). Cows which gave birth to a calf with higher weight at birth experienced more calving difficulty (OR (95% CI) = 1.1(1.08-1.11). Total 305-d milk, fat and protein yield was 135 (23), 3.16 (0.80) and 6.52 (1.01) kg less, in cows that experienced dystocia at calving compared with those that did not (p<0.05).

Ten 18.5-month old Holstein steers were allocated into two diet groups of five and fed either concentrates as control group or potato by-products based silage (PBS) as experimental group for six months to investigate the effect of PBS on growth performance, carcass characteristics and fatty acid composition of carcass fats. The PBS diet consisted, in a DM basis, of 74.5% PBS, 16% hay, and 9.5% soybean milk residue (SMR). The control diet consisted, in a DM basis, of 82.5% concentrates and 17.5% hay. There were no significant differences in the overall average daily gain (ADG), dry matter intake (DMI), feed efficiency, yield score and meat quality score of dressed carcass between the two diet groups. There were no statistical differences in DM, crude protein (CP), and ether extract (EE) of beef and melting point of all adipose tissues from steers fed both diets. The PBS-fed steers tended to have lower Warner Bratzler shear (WBS) values than in the concentrate-fed steers (13.0 vs. 17.7 lb, p<0.1). At both sampling times 3 and 6 months of feeding period, PBS-fed steers had higher proportions of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially linoleic (C18:2) acids in subcutaneous fat than in control group (p<0.05). PBS-fed steers had significantly higher proportions of PUFA, especially C18:2 fatty acids than in concentrate-fed steers in carcass fats (p<0.05). In conclusion, feeding PBS to fattening steers has shown to have the same potential as concentrate feeding in terms of effect on the growth performance, feed efficiency, and carcass characteristics. Interestingly, PBS also seems preferable to concentrates because it increased the proportion of C18:2 fatty acid composition of carcass fats which is valuable for beef consumers.
