Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to publish high-quality papers on poultry production, poultry nutrition, and feed manufacturing for poultry. Many advances have been observed in Poultry Science, and we are looking for research articles/reviews exploring the advances on metabolism, cost-effective diets, and nutritional aspects affecting the feed efficiency of poultry.
Manuscripts published under this Special Issue may include, but are not limited to, the following topics:
- The effects of poultry nutrition on meat and egg quality;
- Updated nutrient requirements of poultry;
- Nutrient and energy utilization of ingredients for poultry;
- Variability in feed ingredients and their effects in poultry diets;
- The effects of feed manufacturing on diet quality and poultry performance;
- Feed processing and precision feeding;
- Methods to evaluate feed quality and nutrient digestibility;
- Nutritional factors that can influence intestinal health of poultry;
- The use of feed additives to improve poultry performance;
- Nutrient excretion to reduce environmental pollution;
- The effects of environment and productions systems on poultry performance.
