Optimising meat chicken range use

In this episode we talk with Peta Taylor from The University of Melbourne about her project on optimising meat chicken range use.

Age-dependent amino acid digestibility of common Australian feedstuffs

In this episode, we talk with Dr Mukti Barua from Massey University about the work she has completed on the standardised ileal amino acid digestibility of common feed ingredients used in poultry diets.  For more information on Dr Barua's research, links to some of her published papers are outlined below.  * An investigation into the influence of age on the standardized amino acid digestibility of wheat and sorghum in broilers [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.psj.2021.101466] * Influence of age on the standardized ileal amino acid digestibility of corn and barley in broilers [https://doi.org/10.3390/ani11123575] * Basal ileal endogenous amino acid flow in broiler chickens as influenced by age [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.psj.2021.101269]

Using maternal calls to modify chicken behaviour

In this episode, we talk to Dr Peta Taylor from The University of Melbourne about her recently completed project that looked at using maternal hen vocalisations to modify the behaviour of meat chickens.

Age related apparent metabolisable energy (AME) of common poultry feed ingredients

In episode, we talk with Dr Mahmoud Kahlil about the research he conducted at Massey University that investigated the AME of common poultry feed ingredients in chickens of different ages.
