TL;DR: In the present study, both plant extracts improved the digestibility of the feeds for broilers and the effect of different additives on digestibility improved the performance slightly, but this effect was not statistically significant.

TL;DR: When using broiler chickens under conditions of good hygiene, dietary formic acid did not have a clear positive effect on performance, digestibility, intestinal histomorphology or plasma metabolite levels; however, there was a slightpositive effect on the ileal digestibility of nutrients.

TL;DR: This review analyses the most important types of stress, and their biological consequences for pigs, and describes the physio-pathological changes associated with stress, as well as the negative effects of stress on pig production.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of low protein diets on growth performance, carcass traits and ammonia emission from barrows and gilts during the growing and finishing periods was investigated, and the results showed that a reduction in dietary crude protein (CP) of 10 g/kg, accompanied by supplementation with crystalline amino acid reduced ammonia emission by 19.9% with no detrimental effects on growth and carcass characteristics.

TL;DR: Analyzing the performance traits, oocyst excretion and intestinal lesions following experimental infection with Eimeria acervulina found cinnamaldehyde and Echinacea purpurea plant extract led to lower performance but with no significant differences between the infected groups.
