The Proceedings of the 14th Symposium on Energy Metabolism of Farm
Animals, held in Northern Ireland in September 1997, comprises 85
original contributions by leading scientists from over 20 countries
around the world. In keeping with previous Symposia in the series,
held under the auspices of the European Association for Animal
Production, this book contains papers which provide the latest
research on the energy metabolism and other aspects of the
physiology of a wide variety of farmed animals. Highlights include
a comprehensive review of the current state of research on leptins
and their potential applications in animal production, and a large
section relating to organ and tissue metabolism, with major
contributions from the USA, UK, France, Germany and Denmark. An
important strength of the book is the diversity of species covered.
For example, the sections on modelling and feed evaluation relate
to pigs, sows, broiler chickens, laying hens, turkeys, lambs, beef
and dairy cattle and fish. There are also substantial contributions
on lactation and reproduction, growth, environmental aspects and
maintenance. This book is essential reading for research workers in
animal science, particularly those concerned with nutrition and
feed evaluation.
