Precision sheep and goats nutrition (152095)
Nositelj predmeta
Opis predmeta
In the introduction to the module, students are introduced to the anatomical-physiological and nutritional peculiarities of ruminants as well as differences between, sheep and goats in the manner of utilization of nutrients and feed. Feeding the sheep includes knowledge and correctness determining food intake and nutritional requirements, and methods of their calculation. The properties of food for sheep and goats, through their evaluation (chemical composition, digestibility, energy value, consumption) as the basis for the settlement of nutritional requirements. Peculiarities of forage continental, mountain and coastal Croatian and methods of their use as food for sheep and goats. Feeding methods of preventing metabolic disorders and environmental pollution, and the food effect on the change in the composition and quality of milk and meat, and their derivatives. The use of nutritional legality in meeting the needs in preparing meals and feed mixtures according to stages of production. In feeding the cubs learn to be nutritional requirements, composition and nutritional value of food for calves (colostrum, milk, milk substitutes and supplements) and how they are feeding. The growth of the animals as the basis of applied nutrition breeding offspring and meat production. The feeding of sheep and goats will focus on grazing and browsing as a source of nutrients, and how their amendments mighty stern. Details will be studied nutritional requirements of sheep and goats in milk and meat production in extensive production conditions, ie, during the scarcity of food and water as well as the nutritional management of sheep and goats Mediterranean region.
