Newest firstThis study evaluated the effects of dietary inclusion of cold- and hot-processed hempseed meal (HSM) on performance, egg quality, yolk fatty acid composition, and blood biochemical parameters in laying hens. A total of 150 Super Nick hens (37 weeks old) were allocated to three dietary treatments with five replicates of eight birds each for 16 weeks: control (0 % HSM), 15 % cold-processed HSM (60 °C), and 15 % hot-…
Open article record in new tab ↗Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) seed is progressively emerging as an innovative and sustainable source of plant oil. Defatted hempseed meal is rich in protein and carbohydrates, which bacteria can convert into cellulose using glucose and fructose. The optimal conditions for bacterial cellulose (BC) production from hempseed meal were evaluated by investigating total solid concentrations ranging from 8 to 16 °Brix using K…
Open article record in new tab ↗Hempseed meal (HSM) is a potential alternative feedstuff for livestock due to its high protein content, but it has not been approved for animal feed in the United States due to safety concerns. This study was conducted to determine the effects of HSM on feed intake, growth performance, serum biochemistry, ruminal papillae morphology, ruminal fermentation profiles, and carcass characteristics of intact male goats.…
Simple SummaryHempseed meal (HSM) is a by-product of hemp manufacturing that can be an excellent source of crude protein and fiber in animal diets. Before accepting HSM as a feed ingredient throughout the food animal industry, the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Veterinary Medicine requires extensive evaluation and documentation of feed ingredients across a species. Hemp contains nine essential amino aci…
Hempseed meal (HSM) is the byproduct of hemp seeds and is rich in crude protein and fiber, making it an ideal candidate as a feedstuff for ruminants. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the effects of feeding different levels of HSM on the carcass traits of crossbred Boer goats. Forty castrated goat kids (approximately six months, 25.63 ± 0.33 kg) were assigned to one of four treatments (n = 10) in a…
Open article record in new tab ↗Hempseed meal (HSM) is left after oil extraction of hemp and may act as a protein source in livestock. The first phase of this research evaluated variation in nutritive value and in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) of HSM from various sources in North America; the second phase utilized IVDMD to evaluate the efficacy of hempseed meal as an ingredient in ruminant feed. In phase one, the source had no contribut…
