Features of Tables of Composition and Nutritional Value of Feed Materials:

• the tables present the chemical composition and nutritional values of the feed materials fed to the main farm species
• the feed materials included are used both in the formulation of compound feeds and as straight feedstuffs (concentrates and by-products)

The data used take into account the evolution in feed materials and nutritional concepts. Important characteristics have been introduced, namely net energy for pigs (growing pigs and sows), amino acid digestibility, mineral availability and starch degradability for ruminants

Tables of Composition and Nutritional Value of Feed Materials provides a reliable scientific reference for feed manufacturers, veterinarians, extension officers, farmers, lecturers and students.
