IAEA/RCA Regional Training Workshop on Nuclear and Related Methodologies for Quantification of Tannins in Shrub and Tree Leaves, Agroindustrial By-Products and Other New Feed Resources will be held in 1-13 December 2003 in Faisalabad, Pakistan.
The main purpose of the workshop is to provide training on development, formulation, processing, storage and nutritional evaluation of unconventional feed resources such as shrub and tree leaves, agroindustrial by-products and other new feed resources.
Animal husbandry is one of the key sectors in many RCA Member States. It is essential for the sustainable development of livestock sector to secure sufficient supply of balanced feeds against scarcity and year-round fluctuation of feeds in quantity and quality. Much experience has been achieved in developing seed-bearing or fodder-producing plants as new source of feeds and formulation of new feeds. These technologies are applicable in RCA countries due to their low cost, easy availability and satisfactory nutritional value.
The course will be a blend of theoretical and 'hands-on' training on methodologies for the analysis of tannins using radiolabelled-, chemical-, protein precipitation/binding- and bio-assays.
