The Use of Biologically Converted Agricultural Byproducts in Chicken Nutrition por Ababor, Sebsib, Tamiru, Metekia, Alkhtib, Ashraf, Wamatu, Jane, Kuyu, Chala, Teka, Tilahun, Lemlem Arega Terefe, Lemlem Arega Terefe, Burton, Emily

“…The current paper identifies that solid-state fermentation has attracted more research attention than other fermentation counterparts because it requires minimal moisture, good oxygen availability, cheap media, low wastewater generation, low cost, a low processing scheme, low energy demand, and high productivity. This paper illustrates the role of proteolytic and lignin-degrading enzymes present in bacteria and fungi in the bioconversion process of complex polymers into smaller molecules of amino acids and simple sugar with a profound improvement in the palatability and bioavailability of agricultural products. …”
