“…In the study of Fru-Nji et al (2007) mortality rates were not reported, indicating that FB inclusion had no major problems on the mortality of the hens in their study (half were LSL and the other half Lohmann Brown). In contrast to our study, FB inclusion had no adverse effect on mortality in the studies of Campbell et al (1980), Perez-Maldonado et al (1999), and Laudadio and Tufarelli (2010). Campbell et al (1980) used SCWL laying hens, Hy-line, and FB at 250 g kg -1 in the diet.…”

The study was conducted to evaluate an appropriate inclusion level of locally produced unprocessed or expander-processed coloured flowered faba bean (FB) (cv. 'Kontu') seeds in diets for laying hens. Egg production and egg quality variables were determined with 560 hens (Lohmann Selected Leghorn, LSL Classic) in a 40-week continued experiment. The hens were fed one of the five diets containing soybean meal as the main protein source. A diet without FB was served as a control diet. Both unprocessed and expander-processed FB was tested either in proportions of 50 g kg -1 or 100 g kg -1 in the diet. Faba bean inclusion (control vs. FB diets) had no effect on the egg production rate, egg mass production, feed consumption, or feed conversion ratio, but it decreased egg weight (p<0.05). Dietary FB inclusion tended to increase the mortality of the hens (p<0.10). Faba bean processing had no effects on egg production parameters or hen mortality. Daily egg mass production decreased and feed conversion ratio increased when FB proportion increased (from 50 to 100 g kg -1 , p<0.05). Faba bean inclusion had no effects on egg exterior quality. It can be concluded that 50 g kg -1 of the FB studied (cv. 'Kontu') can be used in the diets of laying hens (LSL Classic) without negative effects on production performance or livability.

“…The effects of lupin diets on egg production performance in laying hens that we observed are inconsistent with some previous studies. In a previous report, 25% lupin supplementation in layer diets resulted in higher performance in a 40- week experiment: hen per day egg production was higher than 90% and feed intake was approximately 120 g/hen per day (Perez-Maldonado et al 1999). In another study, feed supplemented with up to 30% white lupin in diets resulted in good egg production (Prinsloo et al 1992).…”

ABSTRACT:We investigated the effects of lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.) seed supplementation on egg production performance and egg quality in laying hens. A total of 120 Hy-Line Brown laying hens (29-week old) were used in a nine week trial. Laying hens were sorted into pens with six birds per pen and five pens per treatment. Treatments were (1) control, corn-soybean meal-based control diets, (2) 11% lupin (control + 11% lupin), (3) 16.5% lupin (control + 16.5% lupin), and (4) 22% lupin (control + 22% lupin). The average daily feed intake of laying hens fed with lupin diets was increased compared with control at Week 6 (P < 0.05). The egg production rate was higher in lupin diets than in the control diet at Week 3, 4, and 5 (P < 0.05). Supplementation with lupin improved the egg production rate linearly at Week 3, 4, 5, and 9, as dietary lupin increased from 11 to 22%. Laying hens fed with 11% and 16.5% lupin diets had higher rates of extra-large-sized egg production at Week 1 (quadratic, P = 0.04). Yolk colour was higher in hens fed lupin diets than in those fed with the control at Week 9 (P < 0.05). Supplementation of lupin in laying hen diets linearly improved the yolk colour (P < 0.05) at Week 5. In conclusion, supplementation of the diet with lupin can improve egg production and yolk colour with no apparent effect on average daily feed intake and eggshell quality in laying hens.

“…Field pea has been shown to be an effective replacement for soybean meal (SBM; Corbett et al, 1995;Khorasani et al, 1992) and SBM and canola meal combinations (Petit et al, 1997) in diets fed to lactating dairy cows. Optimum inclusion level of field pea in non-ruminant diets have been suggested to be 250-333 g/kg (Castanon and Perez-Lanzac, 1990;Perez-Maldonado et al, 1999;Farrell et al, 1999).…”

Two hundred crossbred lambs were used to determine energy value and optimum inclusion level of field pea (Pisum sativum) in corn-based diets. In experiment one (Exp. 1), 100 crossbred lambs (33.9 ± 1.3 kg initial BW) were blocked by weight and sex (two blocks of ewe lambs per treatment; three blocks of ram lambs per treatment) and fed for 89 days. In experiment two (Exp. 2), 100 crossbred ram lambs (39.1 ± 0.2 kg initial BW) were blocked by weight (five pens per treatment) and fed for 63 days. Treatments for each experiment were similar; field pea replaced corn at 0, 150, 300, or 450 g/kg of the diet (DM basis). Diets contained 750 g/kg corn and/or field pea, 100 g/kg alfalfa hay, 50 g/kg concentrated separator byproduct (CSB), 60 g/kg soybean meal (SBM), and 40 g/kg supplement. In Exp. 2, a fifth treatment was added to evaluate if field pea can replace corn and SBM in high-grain diets (450 − SBM); this diet consisted of 450 g/kg field pea, 350 g/kg corn, 100 g/kg alfalfa, 50 g/kg CSB, and 50 g/kg supplement. Diets contained 28 mg/kg lasalocid and a minimum 149.6 g/kg CP, 7.6 g/kg Ca, 4.4 g/kg P, and 12.2 g/kg K. Only carcass data from ram lambs were recorded. Data for each experiment were analyzed separately with GLM procedure of SAS and linear, quadratic, and cubic effects of field pea were determined. In Exp. 1, a cubic (P = 0.02) response for DMI occurred, greater intake of 150 g/kg than 300 g/kg diet. No other performance measurements were affected by treatment. In Exp. 2, lambs fed 450 − SBM tended to be more efficient (P = 0.10) than lambs fed 450 + SBM. Carcass characteristics were not affected by treatment (P > 0.10). Based on lamb performance (Exp. 1) there was a tendency for a linear (P = 0.10) increase in dietary net energy. In Exp. 2, no difference in dietary net energy occurred with increasing level of field pea. Dietary net energy was greater for 450 − SBM compared with 450 + SBM. Average calculated NE m and NE g for field pea were 2.75 and 2.02 Mcal/kg, which was 14% greater than corn. Field pea is a suitable replacement for corn in lamb finishing diets and is at least equal in energy density to corn.
