Introduction
Formulation of balanced diets is fundamental to economical animal production, and this process
depends on the knowledge of nutrient requirements of the animal and the nutritional attributes of
nutrient sources. The task of correctly assessing the protein nutritive value is rather challenging. The
specific protein requirements must be established for each animal species of interest, with due
considerations of the breeds, sex, age, weight, intended use, and other particulars of the animal. Also,
amino acid contents of the protein source and their availability to animals require careful assessment.
