A pet food product includes a food substrate manufactured by extrusion, baking or other process involving heat. The pet food product includes less than 10% of hemp oil by weight, and preferably less than 5% by weight. The hemp oil has cannabinoids, including acidiccannabinoids. The acidic cannabinoids have a concentration of less than 100 parts per million, and preferably between 10-40 parts per million in the hemp oil. The acidic cannabinoids include cannabidiolic acid (CBD-A) and cannabidiol (CBD) in a ratio of at least 1:1, and preferably 3:1, or greater. An antioxidant is added to the hemp oil to inhibit oxidation of the acidiccannabinoids including the (CBD-A). The pet food product includes a second oil blended with the hemp oil. The antioxidant and the second oil cooperate to inhibit oxidation of the acidic cannabinoids.

Embodiments disclosed include systems, apparatus, and/or methods to receive a target health status of and/or quality of bioproduct produced by a managed livestock and indications of health status and quality of bioproduct. The systems, apparatus, and/or methods generate a set of input vectors based on the target health status or bioproduct quality, and the indications of bioproduct quality, and health status, and provide the set of input vectors to a machine learning model trained to generate an output indicating a feed selection. The feed selection can be included in a feed blend and administered to the managed livestock, such that, upon consumption, it increases a likelihood of collectively improving the health status of the managed livestock and the bioproduct quality of the managed livestock.

Artificially Intelligent systems are able to draw inferences and conclusions by analyzing information in natural language and then using such information to prove or disprove hypotheses. The quality of such inferences is directly dependent on the accuracy of the input data corpus. Given the proliferation of the Internet as well as the dubious data sources on social media, it is important to determine the truthfulness of the input information. Combining concepts of library classification, crowd-sourced curation and Google Scholar search, we propose the concept of the Veracity Index and an algorithm to calculate it. This index can be used in Artificial Systems to determine the confidence measurement of the inferences.

A flexible and collapsible liquid storage bag comprising front and back walls formed from a sheet material is described wherein a front wall and a back wall are joined along a perimeter of the bag and are also joined at a joined center portion proximate the centers of the respective front and back sheets. The bags are typically used in the storage, heat-treatment and dispensing of bovine colostrum.

The invention concerns a pet food or a pet supplement comprising a synergistically-effective antioxidant composition comprising an extract of Vitis vinifera and an extract of Vaccinium angustifolium, wherein said composition comprises at least 1% of catechins and/or epicatechins and at least 5 ppm of ferulic acid. The present invention further relates to the use of a synergistically-effective antioxidant composition as a medicament for pets, in particular in a method for treating a neurodegenerative disorder in a pet.

Provided is pet food which contains refined cellulose and has a moisture content of 6% to 15% by mass, in which an average grain size of the refined cellulose is 50 m or greater, and 60% or more of food granules in the entire food granules constituting the pet food have a hardness of 2.5 kgw or less immediately after being immersed in dilute hydrochloric acid (pH of 2.5) at 25 C. for 10 minutes.

This invention relates to berberine alkaloids, formulations thereof and their use for the prevention and/or treatment of infectious disease in animals.

Compositions for reducing the emission of methane by ruminant animals are disclosed. The compositions include avian antibodies against methanogens generally found in the rumen of the animals. Egg contents of eggs from female birds inoculated with immunogenic compositions containing one or more methanogens or antigens derived from methanogens are used. The antibodies in the egg contents may be used directly without further purification, may be partially purified or purified. The compositions may be administered in drinking water or in animal feed. Administering of the anti-methanogenic composition reduces the emission of methane and increases the efficiency of feed conversion.

Biomass (e.g., plant biomass, animal biomass, microbial, and municipal waste biomass) is processed to produce useful products, such as food products and amino acids.
