EU-Brazil: joint action plan towards responsible soy production and trade
Brazilian Soy Producers and Processors and the European Feed and Vegetable Oil Industry agree on joint action plan towards responsible soy production and trade.
Effect of heat stress on amino acid digestibility in pigs
Pigs exposed to heat stress increase their body temperature and reduce the size of their intestinal villi, thus increasing the loss of endogenous AAs and reducing the abundance of AA transporters in the intestine, as well as apparent and standardized ileal digestibility of AAs.
