“…The level of trypsin inhibitor activity found in these faba bean cultivars tested was negligible, suggesting that these cultivars could be incorporated in raw form in poultry diets without the need for thermal processing. Virtually no starch was found in white lupins, in contrast to other grain legumes such as field peas and faba beans (Petterson et al, 1997;Nalle et al, 2010a and2011). The carbohydrate reserves in white lupins were the NSP.…”

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of three cultivars (Promore, Kiev mutant and Ultra) of white lupins (Lupinus albus L.) for broilers. In experiment 1, the apparent metabolisable energy (AME) and ileal amino acid digestibility coefficients of the three cultivars were determined. The cultivar effects were significant (P , 0.05) for AME, but the ileal amino acid digestibility coefficients were similar (P . 0.05) between cultivars. The AME value of Ultra cultivar was lower (P , 0.05) than those of Promore and Kiev mutant cultivars. In Experiment 2, using the AME and ileal digestible amino acid values determined in Experiment 1, diets containing 200 g/kg of lupin were formulated and the effects of feeding these diets on performance, digestive tract development and excreta quality of broiler starters were investigated. Weight gain, feed intake and feed per gain of broilers fed diets containing white lupins were similar (P . 0.05) to those fed the maize-soybean meal diet. The performance of birds fed diets containing different cultivars of white lupins was similar (P . 0.05). Several digestive tract parameters were influenced by the dietary inclusion of white lupins. In particular, the relative liver weight and the relative empty weights of small intestine and caeca in birds fed diets containing white lupins were higher (P , 0.05) than those fed the maize-soybean meal diet. No differences (P . 0.05) were observed in the excreta quality scores between the birds fed the maize-soybean meal diet and those fed diets containing white lupins.

“…The replacement of protein-richer SBM with FB seeds leads to a considerable increase in the total content of high-protein components in poultry diets (Vilariño et al, 2009;Nalle et al, 2010;Laudadio et al, 2011). Another factor reducing the feed value of seeds of colouredflower FB varieties is their high content of condensed polyphenols (tannins), ranging from 5 to 10 g · kg −1 DM (Duc et al, 1999).…”

“…Além de favorecerem o desenvolvimento do animal, estimulam o sistema imunológico e a resposta intestinal (Nalle et al, 2010;Van Der Meulen et al, 2010). O feijão-caupi [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] é uma leguminosa, de elevado conteúdo proteico (Frota et al, 2008), cultivada por pequenos produtores nas regiões Norte e Nordeste do país, bastante utilizada na alimentação humana.…”

Resumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar o efeito da inclusão de feijão-caupi (Vigna unguiculata) na ração sobre o desempenho de juvenis de tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum). O experimento foi conduzido em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com três repetições de 20 juvenis de tambaqui (10 g), alocados em caixas d'água de 310 L. Os peixes foram alimentados por 60 dias com rações isonitrogenadas e isoenergéticas, com seis níveis de inclusão de feijão-caupi: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 e 25%. Foram determinadas as relações corporais e de desempenho produtivo. Não houve diferença significativa entre os tratamentos. Juvenis de tambaqui podem ser alimentados com inclusão de até 25% de feijão-caupi na ração.Termos para indexação: Colossoma macropomum, Vigna unguiculata, alimento alternativo, desempenho produtivo, nível de inclusão. Autoclaved cowpea in the nutrition of juvenile tambaquiAbstract -The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the inclusion of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) in diets on the performance of juvenile tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum). The experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design with three replicates of 20 juvenile tambaqui (10 g), allocated in 310-L water tanks. The fish were fed for 60 days with isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets, with six inclusion levels of cowpea: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25%. Body and productive performance relations were determined. There was no significant difference between treatments. Juvenile tambaqui can be fed with the inclusion of up to 25% cowpea in the diet.
