Beschreibung

Animal scientists have learned that administering recombinantly derived somatotropin to cows improves milk production and that giving beta-adrenergic agonists to meat animals improves productivity. This text reports on how these substances work in animals' metabolism, and what effects they might have on nutrient requirements of domestic livestock.
