This book is comprised of 17 chapters focusing on rabbit nutrition and feeding. The first 12 chapters discuss the digestive system of the rabbit, digestion of sugars and starch, protein, fat and fibre digestion, energy and protein metabolism and requirements, minerals, vitamins and additives, feed evaluation, influence of diet on rabbit meat quality, nutrition and feeding strategy and its interactions with pathology and feed manufacturing and formulation. The last 5 chapters cover the feeding behaviour of rabbits, feeding systems for intensive production, nutrition and climatic environment, nutritional recommendations and feeding management of Angora rabbits and pet rabbit feeding and nutrition.
