| Short description: | As part of the currently used feeding systems will be discussed living and production needs of livestock depending on the species, body weight, age or the use of and how they overlap feed of known nutritional value shown will be the basis of current systems of evaluation pasz.Zaprezentowane will be the issues of metabolic disorders in animals on the background of the food. We will discuss the basic types of feed, their characteristics, used in the nutrition of different species of animals taking into account their specific effects on physiology, productivity and economics of nutrition. The issues will be the relationship between nutrition product quality animal nutrition as well as ways of reducing the environmental load stemming from animal husbandry. |
| Full description: | Will present living and productive energy and protein needs of farm animals depending on the species, weight, age and direction of use. Will be presented basis of the current feed systems of evaluation, taking into account their content of energy and protein. Presented will be the issues of metabolic disorders in animals against nutritional. We will discuss the basic types of feed, their characteristics, used in the nutrition of different species of animals taking into account their specific effects on physiology, productivity and economics of nutrition. The issue will be the relationship between diet quality animal products as well as nutritional potential to reduce the environmental load resulting from livestock |
