Effect av mykt syntetisk underlag på purker og grisunger i fødebingen
(Master thesis, 2012-08-06)Mange forskningsresultatet slår fast at det er en del velferdsproblemer i fødebingen. Derfor ble det i dette forsøket lagt gummimatter i fem binger som dekket den øverste delen av fødebingen, mot smågrishjørnet. Formålet ... -
Effect of access to dam on play behavior in dairy calves in a cow-calf contact system
(Master thesis, 2022)The common practice of immediate separation of cow and calf in dairy production is being questioned, and there is an increasing interest from the public and from the industry to assess alternative solutions for cow-calf ... -
Effect of afternoon feeding of particulate limestone on layers' performance, egg and bone quality
(Master thesis, 2018)An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of split feeding of calcium on the laying performance of hens in the first production cycle, and to study the egg and bone quality of endof-lay hens. A total of 7700 ... -
Effect of air-classified faba bean protein on feed production, physical pellet quality, performance, and protein digestibility in broiler chickens
(Master thesis, 2019)Faba bean seed is a good source of crude protein (CP) (293.06 g/kg DM), however soybean meal (SBM) is the dominant protein source in broiler chicken diets. With air classification technique, faba bean seeds can separate ... -
