One of the main conditions for cultivating grain crops is the production of high yields of high quality grain. However, even well-formed healthy-looking seed are not always of good quality.
Wheat grain infestation with mycoflora occurs at different times, e.g. in the period of vegetation, during harvesting, especially in conditions of high humidity, during threshing, during storage of seeds with high humidity. Mycoflora on the seeds can be saprophytic (penicillas, mucor, alternaria, aspergillas, etc.) and pathogenic (helminthiosporium, fusariosis, septoriosis, etc.).
The purpose of our research was to study the level of winter wheat infestation with pathogenic microorganisms, to determine their species composition and to investigate whether the level of grain infestation affects protein and gluten content.
The species composition of the epiphytic mycoflora of winter wheat grain during the harvesting period and its influence on the food quality of grain are studied, measures are taken to limit its harmfulness.
The research data are collected, analyzed and summarized, and the results of recent studies of authors on the metabolic and productive effects of by-products of oil and fat production under the use in the feeding of animals and poultry. Sufficient and full-value feeding of animals taking into account the norms of optimization of lipid nutrition helps to improve the quality of products and reduce its cost price.
Thus, supplementation of the animal and poultry diets with the waste oil and fat production will contribute to further effective development of livestock industry will ensure food security and maximum satisfaction of consumer demand for clean and full-value food for the Ukrainian population.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
