English

  • Animal Feed Processing Equipment

The last in line only get the leftovers : this often applies when feed is conventionally distributed on the feeding table. Since the nutritional value of the ingredients begins to deteriorate as soon as feed is distributed, low ranking cows, who are initially denied access to the feeding table, can maintain neither their feed and nutrient intake nor milk production to the full extent.

Record 3 2016-11-10

English

Subject field(s)
  • Meats and Meat Industries
CONT

The right kind of chicken always comes as a whole bird. If you have never cooked a whole chicken before, don’t be daunted. It's actually very easy, and the leftovers can be transformed into a delicious chicken soup. Ask the farmer to reserve the head and feet of the birds you buy. These are full of gelatin and help make wonderful chicken stock(broth). Also, tell him to keep the fattest birds for you. Much of the goodness of a properly raised bird is in the fat! Of course, you will also want the organ meats or giblets(liver, heart and gizzard).

OBS

whole bird: term extracted from the “Glossaire de l’agriculture” and reproduced with permission of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
