Mathematical Modelling in Animal Nutrition
Edited by J ( France, Professor and Canada Research Chair in Integrative Modeling, University of Guelph, Canada, E Kebreab, University of California Davis, USA
Main Description
Mathematical modelling is increasingly applicable to the practical sciences. Here, mathematical approaches are applied to the study of mechanisms of digestion and metabolism in primary animal species. Farmed animals - ruminants, pigs, poultry and fish are comprehensively covered, as well as sections on companion animals. Common themes between species, such as energy and amino acid metabolism, are explored with a worldwide approach. Leading researchers from around the world have contributed to France and Kebreab's volume to provide an integrated approach to mathematical modelling in animal nutrition.
