“…A common metric associated with achieving this aim is termed feed efficiency, which is loosely defined as a reduction in the lifetime feed consumption of an animal while either maintaining or enhancing growth curves or yields (Herd and Arthur, 2009;Herrero et al, 2013). Yeast fermentation metabolite byproducts have been used by producers for nearly a century to improve the production efficiencies of poultry, swine, meat goats, cattle, and aquaculture (Alizadeh et al, 2016;Chaucheyras-Durand and Durand, 2010;Chou et al, 2017;E. Kairie, 2015;Hippen et al, 2010;Lensing et al, 2012;Mussatto et al, 2006;Poppy et al, 2012;Price et al, 2010;Titi et al, 2008;Xiao et al, 2016).…”
