Abstract
The Symposium is directed to use feed composition and nutrient requirement information to calculate animal diets. Mathematical models (equations) that describe the utilization of nutrients by animals and the variables affecting animal nutrient requirements is presented. The aim is to use feed information and equations that describe nutrient utilization and animal requirements to formulate the most profitable diet for animals in various physiological states and environments. Methods for solving livestock feeding and management problems are presented.
