Los of in het mengvoer verstrekken van 50% tarwe en gerst aan vleesvarkens

Vleesvarkens die 50% tarwe en gerst los verstrekt krijgen in combinatie met een aanvullend mengvoer hebben een ongunstigere EW-conversie dan vleesvarkens die 50% tarwe en gerst in het mengvoer verstrekt krijgen. De groei en het mager-vleespercentage zijn niet aantoonbaar verschillend tussen beide groepen

An evaluation of in-patient respite care at St. Vincent de Paul Residence

Aim: To identify the multi-dimensional characteristics and need for inter-disciplinary input associated with in-patient respite care. Methods: During the period January-December 2007, 91 in-patient respite users, aged ≥60 years, were assessed on admission for respite care at St. Vincent de Paule Residence. Assessment instruments used included the Barthel Index, the Mini-Mental State Examination, a Caregiver Strain Index, the Functional Oral Intake Scale and the Communicative Effectiveness Index. Findings: Of the study group (n=91), 65% of respite users were found to be suffering from moderate to severe dementia (Mini-Mental State Examination score 0-20). High dependency on the Barthel Index (0-7/20) was found in 52% of cases whilst 45% had low dependency (13-20/20). Carer strain was reported in 60% of care-givers (carers). Interdisciplinary input requirements in the group studied included nursing in 85%, dental (83%), speech language pathology (70%), physiotherapy (39%), occupational therapy (38%), medical (33%) and social worker assistance (24%). Conclusion: Elderly respite users are a mixed group with multiple and diverse needs. In their own homes, these care needs are principally met by informal helpers who are frequently under stress. The expansion of in-patient respite services will reinforce the informal community care network and will help avoid or postpone long-term institutionalisation.peer-reviewedpeer-reviewe

Mixed silages made of grass and CCM or barley were investigated as to losses from preservation and sensitivity to overheating. Mixed silages made of wet grass (16% of dry matter) had clearly higher losses from preservation and were on average more sensitive to overheating than mixed silages made of dry grass (35% of dry matter). To decrease the risk of overheating it is recommended that an anti' overheating product is added when making mixed silage of grass with CCM or grai

Voederwaarde bio en gangbaar verschilt

Wageningen UR Livestock Research heeft de verteerbaarheid en voederwaarde van de meest toegepaste biologische grondstoffen in leghennenvoer onderzocht. Dankzij deze studie is de verteerbaarheid van (biologisch geteelde) triticale en veldbonen voor het eerst goed gedocumenteerd. Voor het goed kunnen inschatten vande voederwaarde van een biologische grondstof is het van belang om zowel de chemische samenstelling als de verteerbaarheid van deze grondstof te kennen, zo luidt een conclusie

Book Review: Cypriot Nationalisms in Context: History, Identity and Politics edited by Thekla Kyritsi and Nikos Christofis

In Cypriot Nationalisms in Context: History, Identity and Politics, Thekla Kyritsi and Nikos Christofis bring together contributors to examine historical and contemporary moments of nationalism in Cyprus and their attendant narratives through an interdisciplinary perspective. The book will be useful to academics and students of modern Cyprus and shines when exploring the lesser-studied new and traditional communities of Cyprus, yet greater attention to this aspect would have enabled the collection to convincingly push beyond the tropes of nationalism and identity formation it seeks to call into question, writes R M Christofides
