Problem 1

The following data was collected about a feedstuff. Calculate the TDN.
Component % Digestibility
Water 10 100%
Nitrogen 4 75%
Ether extract3 80%
Crude Fiber 8 35%
Ash 3 70%
NFE ___ 80%
How do I do this? (Don't look too early; you only hurt your ability to figure it out).


Problem 2

Calculate the apprent nitrogen (protein) digestibility and Apparent Biological Value from the following:
N Intake 170 g % App. N Digestibility ____
N in Feces 35 g % App. B. V. ______
N in Urine 12 g
What else do you need to know to calculate True N. Digestibility and True Biological Value?

How do I do this? (Don't look too early; you only hurt your ability to figure it out).


Problem 3

From the following data, calculate the DE, ME and Net energy values:
Feed consumed 5 Kg @ 3100 Kcal/Kg
Feed contained 15,500 Kcal DE, % ______
Feces excreted 1.5 Kg DE, Kcal/Kg feed ___
Feces contained 2000 Kcal/Kg ME, % _______
Urine & gas had 1500 Kcal total Me, Kcal/Kg feed ____
Heat increment 2200 Kcal total Net E, Kcal/Kg feed ____
