Effects of Fermented Feedstuff with Wet Brewer’s Grain and Soybean on Fattening Performance and Carcass Grade in hanwoo Steers

Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the feeding effects of FFWBG (fermented feedstuff with wet brewer's grain) and GS(grinding soybean) in Hanwoo steers. For this research, total twenty steers(average body weight : 455.7±25.9kg) were grouped into control(formula feed), T1(formula feed:FFWBG=60:40), T2(formula feed : GS=80:20), T3(formula feed : FFWBG:GS=50:40:10), and T4(formula feed : FFWBG : GS=40:40:20), each treatment was allocated to four steers. There was a tendency to be increased average daily gain in T1, T2, T3 and T4 compared with the control even though no statistical significance was found. The feed conversion of T1, T2, T3 and T4 were beneficially better than that of control(P<0.05; 8.25, 9.44, 6.69 and 7.71 vs 11.90, respectively). The blood urea nitrogen concentration of T4 was higher than that of control(P<0.05), but the creatinine concentration of T4 was lower than that of control(P<0.05). The glucose concentration of T1, T2, T3 and T4 were higher than that of control (P<0.05; 59.39, 62.44, 62.17 and 54.00 vs 51.00mg/ , respectively). The back-fat thickness of T3 was thicker than that of control, T1, T2 and T4. The rib-eye area of T1, T3 and T4 was wider than that of control. Appearances percentage of 'A' ranked meat quantity were 66, 33, 75 and 33% in control, T1, T2 and T4, respectively.

The effect of fermented apple diet supplementation on the growth performance and meat quality in finishing pigs

“…On the other hand, stock farms including pig farms are developing fermented diets for the production of high‐quality meat, and some diets have already been developed and are being applied to stock farming (Kim et al . 2001, 2006a,b; Song 2001; Park et al . 2003; Song et al .…”

Effect of Fermented Concentrate on Ruminal Fermentation, Ruminal and Fecal Microbiome, and Growth Performance of Beef Cattle

“…The fermented concentrate was prepared by adding probiotics and moisture to initiate fermentation. (1) NDF, neutral detergent fiber analyzed using heatstable amylase and expressed inclusive of residual ash.…”

“…Use of fermented feed in livestock aims to enhance digestion and absorption by processing low-quality feed and supplying it to animals, ultimately promoting the well-being of the host. When fermented feed is used, costs are significantly reduced by maximizing feed efficiency and reducing the amount of feces produced due to high nutrient digestion and absorption [1]. Fermentation is the process by which microorganisms convert starch and sugar into fermentation products, such as lactic acid, organic acids, and alcohols.…”

“…Although previous studies have acknowledged the nutritional benefits of fermented feeds [1], there has been a predominant research focus on monogastric animals, including pigs and poultry, often within the realms of silage or TMR. In contrast, investigations into the effects of fermentation on feed, especially concentrate formulations for ruminant species, are comparatively underrepresented in the literature.…”
