Effect of traditional processing methods on chemical composition and in vitro true dry matter digestibility of the Mophane worm (Imbrasia belina)
(Elservier, 2007-02)
Effects of traditional processing methods on the nutritional value of Mophane worm (Imbrasia belina) were evaluated. Samples were degutted or not degutted. The worms were further subjected to either cooking for 1 h (remaining ...

Limb deformities were detected in 135 out of 885 ostrich chicks, giving a prevalence of 15.3%. Tibiotarsal rotation a¡ected 73% of the chicks with limb deformities, whereas rolled toes accounted for 36%. The right leg was ...
BRIEF COMMUNICATION: High crude protein in autumn pasture does not impair reproductive performance in sheep
(New Zealand Society of Animal Production, 2008)
Embryos exposed to ammonia may degenerate or their growth enhanced (McEvoy et al., 1997). Kelly (1982) reported reproductive wastage of 24.9% in South Island sheep. New Zealand pastures contain high concentrations of crude ...
