“…These inconsistencies could be connected to the roughage source. Supplementing unconventional protein sources to poor quality roughages may ameliorate the negative effects of the supplements, thereby masking the adverse effects (Reddy et al, 2021). However, the buffalo bulls in the current study were fed high quality Super Napier fodder source.…”

Background: Palm kernel cake is a high-fibre and medium-grade protein feed available at a cheaper price. Determining the optimum quantity of palm kernel cake inclusion levels could help in designing sustainable livestock-feeding systems. The studies related to its use in buffaloes are scarce. Considering the indispensable role of buffaloes in enhancing the Indian economy, the current study is aimed at finding the optimum level of palm kernel cake inclusion in rations of buffaloes. Methods: In a 4×4 LSD, four graded Murrah buffalo bulls (4 yrs; 329±10.4 kg) were fed maintenance rations comprising Super Napier and concentrate mixture. A concentrate mixture with 20% CP was prepared using conventional feed ingredients and is used as control. De-oiled palm kernel cake (DPKC) is incorporated at 0, 15, 30 and 45 per cent level to study the effect of feeding DPKC on nutrient utilization, mineral (calcium, phosphorus and nitrogen) balance and rumen fluid parameters (TVFA and nitrogen dynamics). Result: The DPKC diets did not affect nutrient intakes; however, decreased the nutrient digestibility coefficients. The nitrogen outgo was higher and the N retention and per cent absorbed was lower for DPKC-included diets. No effects were observed on the calcium and phosphorus balance of diets. A linearly decreased pattern of TVFA and total nitrogen was observed with increased levels of DPKC. Further, the diets did not affect food and protozoal N and residual N of rumen liquor.

“…According to previous research, adding DDGS to sheep diets improves animal performance and carcass qualities ( 13 , 54 ) by raising ADG and final body weight in meat sheep ( 4 , 7 ). Collectively, DDGS supplementation had no effect on DMI or F: G ratio.…”

“…To obtain ethanol, the grain’s starch is fermented and eliminated. As it is the byproduct of making ethanol ( 6 ), over the last ten years, the yearly production of DDGS has increased from 20 million metric tons (MMT) to 41.56 MMT, more than doubling ( 7 ).…”

“…Previous research on beef and dairy cattle shows that DDGS can improve their performance and growth when added to their diets at 50 and 21%, respectively ( 11 , 12 ). Although numerous researchers have examined the impact of DDGS on sheep performance and growth ( 7 , 13 ) the optimum amount of DDGS inclusion in sheep diets is still unknown. One of the possible risks of DDGS is the possibility of higher sulfur content in the diet, which can result in PEM in ruminants ( 1 , 7 ).…”

Effects of dietary inclusion of dry distillers grains with solubles on performance, carcass characteristics, and nitrogen metabolism in meat sheep: a meta-analysis

et al. 2023

We conducted a meta-analysis in this scientific study to determine the effects of feeding meat sheep dry distillers grains with solubles (DDGS). Thirty-three peer-reviewed articles that met our inclusion requirements and were published between 1997 and 2021 were examined. To calculate the variation in performance, fermentation, carcass features, and nitrogen efficiency between the DDGS and control (no DDGS) treatments, we used 940 sheep weighing an average of 29.1 ± 1.5 kg. We used a hierarchical mixed model to conduct a meta-regression, subset, and dose–response analysis, while taking into consideration categorical variables like breed (pure or cross-breed), and continuous factors, like CP, NDF, and DDGS inclusion rate. Our findings indicate that sheep fed DDGS had higher (p < 0.05) final body weight (51.4 vs. 50.4 kg), neutral detergent fiber digestibility (55.9 vs. 53.8%), and total-tract ether extract digestibility (81.7 vs. 78.7%) than sheep on a control diet. No effects were observed on DMI, CP, and rumen fermentation, but dietary DDGS tended to increase (p = 0.07) HC weight (25.53 vs. 24.6 kg) and meat (redness) color (16.6 vs. 16.3) among treatment comparisons. Dietary DDGS was associated with higher N intake (29.9 vs. 26.8 g/d), fecal N (8.2 vs. 7.8 g/d), and digestibility (71.9 vs. 68.5%). Urinary nitrogen was significantly (p < 0.05) affected linearly by increasing the intake of DDGS in the diet. Based on the dose–response analysis, dietary DDGS inclusion should not exceed 20% to avoid negative effects on performance, nitrogen metabolism, and meat color. Dietary protein from DDGS should not exceed 17% to prevent reduced TVFA concentrations. Breed strongly influenced (p < 0.05) RMD in performance, and inconsistent responses were observed between crossbreed and purebred sheep comparisons. Despite these inconsistencies, no publication bias was observed, but a high variance (Ω2) among comparisons-between-studies was detected. This meta-analysis showed evidence in support of the hypothesis that feeding meat sheep DDGS at a rate of 20% can improve their performance, digestibility, carcass weight, and meat color.

This experiment aimed to examine the potential of distillers dried grains soluble (DDGS) meal as a substitute for soybean meal (SBM) in the Paci c shrimp diet. The study aimed to investigate how DDGS affected disease resistance, antoxidation, and gut microbiota. 840 shrimp were given varied diets with varying concentrations of DDGS. D1 (0%), D2 2%, D3 4%, D4 6%, D5 8%, D6 10%, and D7 12% were the DDGS levels. Each group had three replicates of the 56-day experiment. Initially, the weight was 0.19 ± 0.00 g. The survival rate was consistently 100% for shrimp-fed DDGS, except for group 7 (14%) and the control group, where shrimp mortality was observed. The total protein (TP) content was improved as the inclusion level of DDGS increased. The glucose (GLU) exhibited a downward trend with higher DDGS inclusion.Similarly, the TG and CHO levels in the serum decreased as the DDGS levels increased. The activities of ALT (alanine transaminase) and AST (aspartate aminotransferase) decreased as the dietary DDGS increased, with the control group showing signi cantly higher ALT and AST activities than those fed DDGS diets (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the SOD (superoxide dismutase) activity signi cantly increased with higher DDGS levels, while the MDA (malondialdehyde) activity showed the opposite trend. Notably, the control exhibited the highest MDA activity value. The most prevalent phylu found in the gut microbiota were Proteobacteria, and Bacteroidetes. Upon completion of a 7-day bacteria challenge, it was observed that shrimp fed with the control diet had a lower mortality rate compared to those fed the DDGS diet. Based on the parameters measured in this study, it was determined that replacing 10% of SBM with DDGS in the feed of Paci c shrimp is feasible. The calculation for shrimp survivalSurvival rate % = [100× End number of shrimp/ Initial number of shrimp] Serum biochemical analysisThis study set out to look into the antioxidant activity and serum biochemical parameters of Paci c shrimp. The levels of TG, CHO, GLU, TP, ALT, AST, MDA, and SOD were among the many activities that our team examined. We used assay kits from the prestigious Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute in China to guarantee precise and trustworthy results. We used commercial assay kits from the Nanjing Jiancheng Institute in Nanjing, China, to measure ALT and AST levels. The biuret method was used to determine TP levels. SOD activity was measured using the nitro blue tetrazolium reaction, with the color extracted into butanol and measured at 550 nm. The TBA (thiobarbituric acid) test was used to measure the amount of MDA in the hepatopancreas. Lipid hydroperoxide breakdown was also measured using TBA, resulting in red chemicals at the 532 nm absorbance peak. The analysis of digestive enzymeTo conduct a thorough analysis, we studied how dietary DDGS affects the activity of digestive enzymes, speci cally amylase, lysine, and protease, in shrimp. We selected three shrimp for each group and carefully removed and dissected their intestines. The intestine...
