To examine the influence of anti-stressor and immunizer on the growth of broiler chickens, their meat yield features, and immune response, a total of 360 Cobb-500 day-old commercial broiler chicks were used in a 35-day feeding trial. Experimental birds were randomly assigned to three dietary treatments having six replications each of 20 birds. During the starter and grower periods, corn-soya-based plant protein mash diets were provided. Starter and grower diets were provided in two phases: day-old to 21 days and 22-35 days, respectively. The first group of chicks was treated as control (diet 1), the second group was offered a control diet supplemented with an anti-stressor (diet 2) and the third group received a control diet to which an immunizer was incorporated (diet 3). Growth performance data were recorded weekly. Meat yield traits were determined and blood samples were collected on termination of the experiment. Data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) in a completely randomized design (CRD). Results showed that significantly higher body weight and lowest FCR values were found in the anti-stressor incorporated group (P<0.005). Giblet content was significantly (P<0.001) increased due to addition of anti-stressor and immunizer in the diet. The immunizer supplemented group significantly improved antibody titer against Infectious Bursal Disease (P<0.005). It was therefore concluded that both anti-stressor and immunizer as used in this study could be considered to improve growth performance, giblet weight and immunological response.

This study was conducted at the Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory, Faculty of Sustainable Agriculture, Universiti Malaysia Sabah Sandakan Campus from August 2016 until October 2016 to do a reach work on the analysis of the slaughterhouse bovine ovaries in term of the quality by histochemistry studies. The objectives that been set for this study were to identify the quality of follicles in bovine ovaries and to find out the relationship between the quality of follicles and ovarian state. The ovaries were collected from slaughterhouse and morphological evaluations such as weight and number of visible follicles on the surface of the ovaries were counted. The ovaries been classified into two groups as ovary with corpus luteum (CL+) and without corpus luteum (CL-). The recorded percentages of ovaries that been retrieved from the slaughterhouse is 75.0% CL- and 25.0% CL+. The visible follicles on the surface of the ovaries that been recorded at average level for CL+ (23.0 ± 2.4) is lower than the CL(26.0 ± 2.2). From the collected ovaries represented several ovaries from both groups been used for histochemistry study. The ovaries then been prepared for histological study by fixation, dehydration, clearing, embedding, and blocking with paraffin wax. The waxed sample block been trimmed with microtome at 6µm and stained with Hematoxylene and Eosin (HE). The sample observed under microscope and the number of follicles and the granulosa cells integrity been recorded. From the finding, the CL- ovaries were contained good quality follicles (8.8 ± 0.3) at grade

Shrimp sector contributes significantly to export earnings and employment generation for on and off farm activities in Bangladesh. Expansion of shrimp farming naturally lead to a change in use pattern of coastal land, in the form of a shift in land from other economic and environmental uses to shrimp culture. But marginalised households are rarely participating in shrimp value chain because they have very limited access to resources. The present study identified the constraints to participation of marginalised households in shrimp value chains in order to formulate effective strategies for encouraging participation of marginalised households. To attain this qualitative data were collected from Khulna, Bagerhat and Satkhira districts of Bangladesh through 6 focus group discussions and 40 in-depth interviews during July to September 2018. In total, a sample of 100 respondents, containing 60 marginalised households from focus group participants, 30 private and 10 public stakeholders was selected purposively for the study. Thematic content analysis was employed for analysing the collected qualitative data. It was evident that the marginalised households engaged mostly as labourers in shrimp value chain and added some value in each node. As no sampled marginalised household was engaged as shrimp farmers, they showed their keen interest to become shrimp farmers. Both the participant and non-participant marginalised households reported some constraints to become shrimp farmers. The study identified market-based solutions of the key constraints. The participant and nonparticipant marginalised households stated their own strategy that by forming group they could become shrimp farmers. The public and private stakeholders recommended ‘push’, ‘pull’ and ‘blend’ (push-pull) strategies for participation of marginalised households in shrimp value chains. Interventions targeting the marginalised people are needed for their entry into shrimp value chains. Marginalised households should form collectives/ association/ farmers club/self-help group for greater extent of participation in shrimp value chains.
