Course Goal / Objective
The endocrine system is a control and regulation system. Apart from basic metabolic activities such as intake, digestion, absorption, transport and storage of nutrients, it plays a role in many areas such as reproduction, lactation and environmental interaction. With this course, it will be ensured that the endocrine system is closely introduced and the elements it interacts with will be taught and the subject will be examined especially in terms of nutrition of farm animals.
Course Content
Within the scope of this course, the endocrine system and feeding relationship in farm animals are emphasized. In particular, the effect of feeding practices on the endocrine system in ruminant animals is detailed.
Course Precondition
General Animal Nutrition and Ruminant Nutrition courses or instructor's approval are required.
