Abstract

Inadequate availability, price hikes, and rivalry between food and feed means there is an incessant request for unconventional feedstuffs for livestock. As a result, other sustainable feed material needs to be explored. Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is a tropical tree known for its apple and nut. Cashew apple, cashew kernel waste meal, and cashew nut shell liquid residue have the potential as a valuable ingredient in livestock feeds and have gained increasing attention. They are becoming more and more valuable ingredients in livestock diets, owing to their availability. Systematic utilization has been shown to drive down feed costs, enhance animal nutrition and productivity making them suitable for incorporation into animal diets. However, available research output on the use of cashew apple, cashew kernel waste meal, and cashew nut shell liquid residue in livestock feed is lacking in consistency among quantified nutritive benefits. This review encompasses a comprehensive analysis of the nutrient composition of cashew products, byproducts, and their potential uses as alternative ingredients in livestock diets.

Kaju (Anacardium Occidentale L.) Ürünleri ve Yan Ürünleri: Hayvancılık Diyetlerinde Besin Bileşenleri ve Besinsel Faydaları

Abstract

Yetersiz bulunabilirlik, fiyat artışları ve gıda ile yem arasındaki rekabet, besi hayvanlarına yönelik alışılmadık yem maddelerine yönelik sürekli bir talebin olduğu anlamına geliyor. Sonuç olarak, diğer sürdürülebilir yem materyallerinin araştırılması gerekmektedir. Kaju (Anacardium occidentale L.), elması ve ceviziyle tanınan tropik bir ağaçtır. Kaju elması, kaju çekirdeği atık küspesi ve kaju fıstığı kabuğu sıvı kalıntısı, hayvan yemlerinde değerli bir bileşen olma potansiyeline sahiptir ve giderek daha fazla ilgi görmektedir. Bulunabilirlikleri nedeniyle hayvan beslenmesinde giderek daha değerli bileşenler haline geliyorlar. Sistematik kullanımın yem maliyetlerini düşürdüğü, hayvan beslenmesini ve üretkenliğini arttırdığı ve onları hayvan diyetlerine dahil edilmeye uygun hale getirdiği gösterilmiştir. Bununla birlikte, kaju elması, kaju çekirdeği atık küspesi ve kaju fıstığı kabuğu sıvı kalıntısının hayvan yemlerinde kullanımına ilişkin mevcut araştırma çıktıları, niceliksel besleyici faydalar arasında tutarlılık açısından eksiktir. Bu inceleme, kaju ürünlerinin besin kompozisyonu, yan ürünleri ve bunların hayvancılık beslenmesinde alternatif bileşenler olarak potansiyel kullanımlarının kapsamlı bir analizini kapsamaktadır.
