This study examines agricultural byproducts fermented with various rot fungi as a substrate of black soldier fly larvae. The experiment used a three-way randomized design with four replications. The first factor was substrate (cacao pod husk and oil palm frond), the second factor was fungi (...

Rising global populations and enhanced standards of living in so-called developing countries have led to an increased demand of food, in particular meat, worldwide. While increasing the production of broiler meat could be a potential solution to this problem, broiler meat is plagued by health...

Lipase is a kind of industrial enzyme preparation with various catalytic abilities and is widely used in food, energy, medicine and other fields. To increase lipase and enzyme cocktail activity through solid-state fermentation, the novel strain Penicillium sp. Y-21 was obtained through ethyl...

In livestock production, feed resources are very crucial, particularly in Africa where food security and sustainable development are major considerations. The incorporation of locally available novel feed resource alternatives can promote circular economy concepts, increase food security, and...

Biogas production can support waste management efficiently - such an integrated system may reflect the approaches of a circular economic strategy. Our purpose was to assist in this task through the quantification of the methane potential of several substrates in Hungary, and by an investigation of...

The by-products of pepper are mainly composed of pepper straw and pepper meal, and the reserves are considerable, which can be used for livestock breeding feed. In this paper, the nutritional composition, the main active substances of pepper by-products and their feed-based applications in animal...

Pelleting is a promising, cost-effective method to optimize the use of garden wastes as animal feed production. Shortage of animal feed and increasing costs are the main reasons to produce feed from garden wastes like green pistachio shell residues. In this study, green pistachio shell residues...

With the advent of the era of "Prohibition of Antibiotics" comes to feed in China, the natural plant extracts have gradually become a new type of feed additive to replace antibiotics. Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP), plant polysaccharides extracted from Lycium barbarum and its by-products,...

Soybean is one of the most productive crops in the world, with an output of about 3.717 million tons in 2021. With the increasing market demand of peeled soybean meal, soybean hulls, as a by-product of soybean products such as soybean oil, are increasing in quantity. Soybean hull, with high fiber...

"Cam" rice bran was considered a waste product from rice, which is rich in natural compounds and protein owing to its outstanding nutritional value. This study aimed to establish an optimization model for extracting protein from rice bran, with two responses: extraction yield (%) and protein...
