| Course abstract | |
| The study course acquaints students with the feed components and their by-products necessary for the feeding of animals – water, dry matter, crude protein, carbohydrates, crude fat, minerals and others nutrients biochemical and physiological role in metabolism and requirement of nutrients and additives the animals for different species and physiological groups. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| Students acquire knowledge on the chemical composition of feed: water, dry matter, protein, carbohydrates, fats, mineral substances and vitamins and their significance for the metabolism on the animal organism and for meeting the requirements regarding the use of the most appropriate types of feed and norms of additives envisaged in relation to feeding norms. Successful passed tests. Students acquire skills regarding the main principles of nutrient rationing for animals of different species and groups, and how to choose the most appropriate types of feed and feed additives to meet the requirements. Successful completion of practical works and laboratory works. Students are competent in matters relating to the most appropriate nutrients for animals of different species and groups, taking into account the nutritional standards. Successful passed exam. | |
