    Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

    Abstract

    The removal of animal protein sources from poultry diets combined with increased production of oilseeds for human consumption has placed greater emphasis on the use of oilseed meals in broiler diets. This paper reviews the nutritive value of oilseed meals, such as soyabean meal, canola meal and sunflower meal, and presents data on the efficacy of feed enzymes to enhance their nutritive value. In particular, the effects of feed enzymes on the utilisation of non-starch polysaccharides are discussed.
