Legume grain-based supplements in dairy sheep diet: Effects on milk yield, composition and fatty acid profile
2016
With the aim to find protein sources that are free of genetically modified organisms, the effects of legume grain-based concentrates, used as alternatives of a mixed concentrate feed containing soybean, were evaluated on sheep milk production. Twelve lactating ewes were divided into four groups, fed hay and, according to a 4 × 4 Latin square design, supplied with 800 g/day of a commercial mixed concentrate feed (MCF) containing maize and soybean, or the same amount of isoprotein concentrates consisting of chickpea (CH), faba bean (FB), or pea (PE) mixed with barley. The ewes ingested more of the concentrates with legume grains than the MCF (702, 702, 678 vs 587 g/day DM for CH, FB, PE and M…
Influence of Culture Medium on Multiplication of Lactic Bacteria Isolated From Organic Milk in Order to Obtain Biomass
2014
Abstract This paper aims to establish direct and predictive methods (statistical) the possibility of obtaining lactic bacteria Lactobacillus delbrueckii var. bulgaricus in higher amounts by using culture medium enriched with carbohydrates in different percentages, for using these in obtaining organic products. The results led to the selection of MRS culture medium enriched with 1% glucose, 2% lactose and 3% maltose as a substrate in order to use multiplication of lactic bacteria isolated from organic milk, collected from organic farms in the area of Sibiu, Romania.
Is it all about the price? : reasons for the small market shares of organic meat and meat products in Austria
2016
Austria is one of the leading countries in the world when it comes to organic farming.

Since all of those organic products – milk, eggs as well as meat and meat products – are food of animal origin, for which the same organic c…
