Description:
This comprehensive E-book on Animal Nutrition is specially designed to meet the needs of aspirants preparing for ASRB NET and other competitive agricultural exams. Covering all 10 essential units, this book provides detailed, topic-wise coverage of animal nutrition principles, combining both conceptual clarity and objective-type questions for rigorous practice.

Each unit reflects the latest syllabus prescribed by ASRB/ICAR, with focus on practical applications, recent developments, and exam-oriented content. Whether you're aiming for a research fellowship, teaching post, or specialized job in animal sciences, this eBook will serve as a complete and reliable guide.

Units Covered:

🔹 Unit 1: Energy and Protein
Covers the nutritional significance of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins; energy partitioning; BMR; calorimetry; digestion and metabolism of lipids and proteins; metabolizable protein concept; protein-energy relationships.

🔹 Unit 2: Minerals, Vitamins and Feed Additives
Includes mineral classification, bioavailability (including nano and chelated minerals), synergism/antagonism, hypervitaminosis, anti-vitamins, and modern feed additives like prebiotics, probiotics, enzymes, and phytochemicals.

🔹 Unit 3: Rumen Ecosystem and Functions
Focus on rumen microbiology, digestion kinetics, microbial fermentation, VFA synthesis, protein metabolism, methane estimation, and manipulation of fermentation using inhibitors and additives.

🔹 Unit 4: Non-Ruminant Nutrition
Explains digestive physiology and nutrition in poultry, swine, rabbits, horses, and pets; discusses feed additives, nutrient requirements, and performance factors.

🔹 Unit 5: Nutrient Requirements
Details requirements of energy, protein, minerals, vitamins in ruminants and non-ruminants; colostrum feeding; dry matter intake; feeding standards (NRC, ARC, Kearl); least cost ration formulation; nutrition under stress and in exotic species.

🔹 Unit 6: Forage Conservation and Evaluation
Explores nutritive value of forages, hay and silage preparation, forage quality evaluation, grading, artificial drying, and conservation strategies.

🔹 Unit 7: Feed Processing and Technology
Includes feed processing methods (physical, chemical, biological), pelleting, BIS/HACCP standards, feed mill operations, storage methods, shelf-life enhancement, GM feed residues, and total mixed ration formulation.

🔹 Unit 8: Anti-metabolites and Toxic Principles
Discusses anti-nutritional factors in feeds and forages, detoxification methods, pesticide residues, and environmental toxicants impacting animal health.

🔹 Unit 9: Elements of Research Methodology
Covers feed evaluation techniques (in vitro, in sacco), tracer methods, RUSITEC simulation, NIR spectroscopy, and feed microscopy for quality assurance.

🔹 Unit 10: Clinical Nutrition
Focuses on the role of nutrition in controlling digestive/metabolic disorders (ketosis, bloat, acidosis), metabolic profiling, reproduction, immunity, GI parasite control, and antioxidant supplementation.
