Use of Awamori-pressed Lees and Tofu Lees as Feed Ingredients for Growing Female Goats

Abstract: Okinawan Awamori is produced by fermenting steamed indica rice with black mold, yeast, and water. Awamori-pressed lees is a by-product of the Awamori production process. Tofu lees is a by-product of the Tofu production process. This research consisted of two experiments conducted to elucidate whether or not dried Awamori-pressed lees and Tofu lees can be used as a mixed feed ingredient for raising female goats. In experiment 1, digestion trials were conducted to ascertain the nutritive values of dried Awamori-… Show more

“…The three types of feed (control feed (CF), 20% Awamori-pressed lees mixed feed (AMF), 20% Tofu lees mixed feed (TMF), Table 2 ) made for use in this experiment were produced using the TDN and DCP values of Awamori-pressed lees and Tofu lees that were elucidated previously ( Nagamine et al, 2012 ). The mixed feeds were produced to ensure that the DCP and TDN for all three feed types were virtually equal ( Table 3 ).…”

“…In male goats, the peculiar odor is produced in sebaceous glands by testosterone [ 2 ], where branched-chain fatty acids in the serum are identified as the odor components and then transferred from the blood to the meat. Castrating male goats in the late growth stage was believed to result in better muscular growth based on the fact that mature body weight and size in the castrated male goat became smaller than that of the intact male goat due to the increased secretion of female hormones such as the follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone comparing to intact male goats [ 3 , 4 ]. Therefore, it is possible to improve meat quality by castration; for example, the marbling score of the meat is improved and the peculiar odor is reduced [ 5 ].…”
