Abstract

There are two methods in use currently for the rapid hiolopical determination of metabolizable energy content of feedstuffs for poultry. One method gives a 'true' metabolizable energy (TME) value (Sibhald 1976a), and the other an 'apparent' metabolizable energy (ME) value (Farrell 1978a, 1980)
