CONT

La majeure partie du travail accompli dans le domaine de l'utilisation du feuillage industriel comme nourriture animale l'a été en Union Soviétique dans le contexte d’une main-d’œuvre à bon marché; le terme «muka»(qui signifie un supplément vitaminique fourrager préparé à partir de feuilles d’arbres) désigne le feuillage industriel employé dans les aliments pour animaux. Ce terme est maintenant employé internationalement.

OBS

Au Canada, le terme «mouka», employé seul, désignera le feuillage industriel provenant des conifères. S’ il est fabriqué à partir de feuilles caduques, on précisera son origine.

Record 2 1991-10-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Wood Products
  • Biomass Energy
  • Forestry Operations
CONT

Tree foliage is available in vast quantities and is utilized very little in Canada. Keays and Barton (1975) report that for softwoods, young tree's foliage is 25% by weight of the tree bole, and older trees 10% by weight; similarly for hardwoods the young trees have foliage 15% of the bole by weight, and mature trees 5%. This, however, is just "foliage", and for utilization purposes it is more realistic to deal in terms of "commercial foliage" (leaves plus twigs, shoots and branches up to 0.6 cm (0.24 inches) diameter).
