He currently heads and conducts research in
Monogastric Livestock Production Unit at the Institute of Agricultural Research and Training, Ibadan and teaches same at the Department of Animal Sciences, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife.
Herbs and botanicals as feed additives in
monogastric animals.
Guests were given the chance to visit a series of workstations covering a range of topics such as
monogastric nutrition, new technologies in feed production, and information on the latest trials and studies being conducted by Harbro.
Studies showed OA might regulate
monogastric intestinal microbial flora and it is expected that OA might help to improve the utilization of dietary fiber in pigs.
2011).This method is practiced in
monogastric animals since a longtime, however the dietary nutrients digestibility as well as ingredients selection are still a part of discussion, because of increase in the flow and EAAL.
He added that they manufactured
monogastric feeds for both poultry and pigs.
The digestion process in ruminants is significantly different from
monogastric species (e.g.
Use of polyphenol-rich grape byproducts in
monogastric nutrition.
The rice byproducts, especially bran, present higher fiber contents, thereby affecting the digestibility in
monogastric animals, which includes the reduction of feedstuff GE digestibility (BRITO et al., 2008).
Dr Agboola's main areas of research are on evaluation of feedstuffs, amino acid availability and their inter-relationships with other nutrients, efficiency of amino acid utilisation in
monogastrics. Her research programme is aimed at improving the efficiency of meat production in
monogastric animals, value additions to non-conventional feed ingredients, least cost feed formulation and minimising environmental pollution.
