“…However, in many cases the improvements failed to reach significant levels. Many different sources of protein supplementation were compared (Loerch and Berger, 1981;Umunna et al, 1982;Stock et al, 1983;Yilala and Bryant, 1985;Butler and Laycock, 1987;Duff et al, 1988). For the traits examined, these studies as well as the present study have shown small differences from the source of supplementary protein.…”

Data were collected on 130 intact male lambs fed diets based on roughages supplemented with fish meal, soybean meal, or corn gluten-blood meal and slaughtered at 43 kg live weight. A nonsupplemented group served as a control. The lambs represented Romanov (R), Finnsheep (F), a new breed developed in Canada (DLS), Coopworth (C), and Suffolk (S), three first crosses of DLS with R, F, and Booroola Merino (B), and their backcrosses to DLS. Supplemented lambs consumed 16 to 22% less (P less than .05) silage than control lambs. Average daily gains of lambs fed fish meal (226 g) and corn gluten-blood meal (217 g) were higher and feed conversion ratio (4.99 and 5.11) lower than that of lambs fed soybean meal (189 g and 5.48) or control (186 g and 5.76) diets (P less than .05). The cost of feed per kilogram of gain or per kilogram of lean produced was similar in the four treatments but was between C $.23 and .65 cheaper in the protein-supplemented groups when the number of days to reach slaughter weight was considered. The effect of diet on carcass traits and meat quality were minimal. Meat of lambs fed the three protein supplements was less juicy than that of control lambs. With a few exceptions, most of the significant differences among genetic groups in growth, carcass, and sensory traits were mainly between prolific (R and F) and meat-type breeds (C, S, and DLS). Gain in weight was highest in S lambs (199 g/d), but F and R first crosses were the youngest at slaughter (196 and 198 d). The F lambs had higher dressing and kidney fat percentages than meat-type breeds. The DLS lambs had the largest longissimus muscle area (14.0 cm2), whereas C had the smallest (10.7 cm2). The B crosses had larger longissimus muscle area than R and F crosses. The R lambs had more lean and less fat in the 12th rib, whereas C lambs had the lowest lean and a high bone percentage. The toughest and the most tender roasts were those of R and B crossbred lambs, respectively. Roasts from F lambs had the most intense lamb flavor.

“…Similar to distillers' grains, these coproducts account for a good source of nutritious components such as protein and fiber for feed applications. The value of these coproducts for animal feed has been realized for many years now and they are used as the feed for a wide range of animals including beef cattle [57], calf and lamb [58], dairy cattle [59], poultry [60], swine [61], pet [62] and fish [63]. Also, it has been reported that corn gluten meal can be used as the pre-emergence weed control (to control weeds before the weed seeds germinate) [64] and has been regulated by US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) [65].…”

same time, research and development is crucial to conquer the challenges and bring sustainability to biorefinery facilities [ ]. Major motivation for biofuels usage arises from the execution of biofuel policies by many countries, which mandates the incorporation of bio-counterpart into traditional fuels. United Kingdom introduced the Renewable Transport Fuels Obligation RTFO and encouraged the oil suppliers to incorporate biofuel into transport fuel between . and % during -. RTFO's ultimate aim is to increase this % upto % by , which will reflect in the demand of minimum million tonnes [ ]. Renewable fuel blending mandates in Canada was implemented through Canadian Environmental Protection "ct, which recommends % ethanol with gasoline in and % biodiesel with diesel in [ ]. In South "frica, the National "iofuels Industrial Strategy was introduced by the government in , which recommends the implementation of % biofuels into liquid road transport fuels by [ ]. Currently India's ~ % crude oil demand is satisfied by foreign suppliers, which is projected to rise % in . In order to reduce this foreign dependency, India has announced the target of ethanol blending with gasoline % by [ ]. In biofuel production, China has clear production goals to meet emerging demand in near future. China's integrated biofuel polices rural welfare, improved energy security, reduced fossil fuel dependence, and CO emissions aimed to meet ~ % of the total transportation fuel demand by [ ]. In Malaysia, the National "iofuel Policy initially planned to proceed with % biodiesel blend with % petroleum diesel, which is similar to Europe's " , which has been started from . This will be implemented through short, medium and long term strategies aiming to reduce their petroleum imports [ ]. In addition to that, many countries have already designed various incentive programs for the effective promotion of biofuel production including bioethanol and biodiesel. This implements -% biofuel supplement into traditional fuels [ ].
