As the building blocks for proteins, dietary amino acids are of great importance in the feeding of farm animals produced for human consumption. Written by leading authorities from the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand, this book provides a comprehensive review of recent advances and current knowledge of amino acids in farm animal nutrition. The first five chapters consider general issues, such as methodologies for amino acid analysis, utilization of precursors, ideal amino acid patterns and amino acid imbalances and toxicities. The remaining 11 chapters focus on particular species, with three chapters on pigs, three on poultry, four on ruminants and one on finfish. Modelling amino acid metabolism in various species is emphasized, as is determining optimum requirements and dietary balances. The book should interest advanced students and research workers in animal nutrition.
