Animal Nutrition

By Aron A. Bondi

A comparative study of the basic biochemical and physiological basis of nutrition in farm animals, with an emphasis on applying new research data to the design of feeding regimes which will result in the most efficient use of feedstuffs for different productive purposes. Professor Bondi clearly outlines the major metabolic pathways in a range of animals, highlighting how individual nutrients are digested and absorbed and how these processes provide the animal with energy and lead to the formation of animal tissues in the form of meat or other products such as milk and eggs.
