Feeding strategy with alternate fasting and refeeding: effects on farmed pacu production
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-04-01)
P>A 36-day trial was conducted to determine the effects of repetitive periods of food restriction and refeeding on growth and energy metabolism in pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus). A total 264 juvenile fish (36.9 +/- 2.8 g) ...
Prandial correlations and structure of the ingestive behavior of pigs in precision feeding programs
(2021-10-01)
The feeding behavior of growing-finishing pigs was analyzed to study prandial correlations and the probability of starting a new feeding event. The data were collected in real-time based on 157,632 visits by a group of 70 ...
Tools for improving feeding strategies in a SBR with several species
(Springer, 2014)
This paper analyzes feeding strategies in a
sequential batch reactor (SBR) with the objective of
reaching a given (low) substrate level as quickly as possible
for a given volume of water. Inside the SBR, several
species ...
