Overview

This book provides detailed scientific information on the processing of waste material to provide inexpensive alternative feedstuffs for use in poultry nutrition. The types of waste material considered for such use by this book include waste materials from the poultry industry and hide and tanning industry, municipal refuse, and sewage sludge. Special attention is given to waste fruit, vegetables and brewers' dried grain wastes. For each waste considered, the book provides detailed information on yields of waste, chemical analysis, nutritive value, processing methods and where appropriate, biohazard information and details of alternative biological processing methods. As the inclusion of wastes in poultry diets can cause problems of palatability and feed acceptability these important aspects are thoroughly discussed. This book should be of interest to all those involved in the animal feed industry, poultry industry and to university departments and research establishments where animal nutrition is studied and taught. This book should be of interest to animal feed scientists; companies dealing with biological wastes; poultry companies; and academics and researchers in animal nutrition.
