Harvesting a silage-specific, non-BMR corn hybrid at a high harvest height improved its nutritive content, but the improvement in feeding value was not equivalent to that found when cows were fed BMR corn silage.
In these cases, drug resistance persists only in a transient manner, and an improvement in nutritive conditions immediately restores the drug sensitivity.
Addition of enzymes from mesophilic or thermophilic sources to maize forage at ensiling increased the rate of acidification of the silages and improved in vitro degradation kinetics, suggesting an improvement in the nutritive quality.
The benefits of red clover to farming include nitrogen fixation, soil improvement and high nutritive value in terms of protein-rich feed for livestock.
Mechanical processing of barley silage harvested at a mid-dough stage of maturity resulted in small improvements in its nutritive value for lactating dairy cows and had minor impact on digestibility and milk production.
We observed that only patients with a WHO PS of 2 developed fatal toxicity; therefore, careful patient selection, improvement in liquid and nutritive intake, as well as the prophylactic use of antibiotics could be beneficial and recommendable before starting therapy.
They are considered to be nutritive when they satisfy nutritional needs and non-nutritive when they satisfy psychological needs [ 3, 4].
Actually, compelling evidences indicate that an increased consumption of correct diet containing nutritive and nonnutritive compounds may contribute to the improvement of the quality of life by delaying onset and reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases and, in particular, the development of endothelial dysfunction.
Breast milk remains the gold standard source of nutrition for infants due to both its unique nutritive and non-nutritive ingredients [ 1].
Crop improvement programmes have aimed to develop high-yielding, disease-resistant and highly nutritive cultivars (Ceballos et al. 2010).
