"Poultry consumption has increased over the last several years and this trend is expected to continue with the increasing population. With this in mind, the authors of this book have done an excellent job of reviewing current practices in poultry nutrition, evaluating new trends, and discussing how these new trends will impact the poultry industry in the future to meet the increasing demand for poultry meat and eggs. Researchers and nutritionists will find very useful information regarding a variety of topics related to current and future trends in poultry nutrition. Additionally, this book may also be used as supplementary material for poultry science courses." (Book Review Published in the Journal of Applied Poultry Research)Poultry nutrition faces many challenges, including the need to meet the changing requirements of growing birds whilst also avoiding over-nutrition and nutrient losses which can be both environmentally and economically damaging.** With the sector also facing increasing pressure to reduce its reliance on antibiotics, a greater understanding of the poultry gut, its function and its role in optimising overall bird health is required.Advances in poultry nutrition provides a detailed overview of the physiology of feed intake in broiler production, focussing on recent advances in nutrient requirements, poultry digestive physiology and the genetic factors which can affect feed conversion efficiency in broilers. The collection also reviews the nutritional value of poultry feed and the range of in vivo and in vitro techniques used to measure factors which can influence its value, such as feed digestibility and metabolizable energy.…
