	Basic Animal Sciences Research Report (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Meeting the goals of a premier basic animal sciences program in research and teaching at ISU depend upon human resources, infrastructure of facilities and equipment, and extramural support for the attraction of highly talented scholars at the undergraduate and graduate level of training.
		Animals contribute 53% of all food consumed in U.S. Animal products provide 76% of the protein, 81% of the calcium, 67% of the phosphorous, and 30% of the energy in the average American diet.
		ISU's niche in basic animal sciences in the future should be the integration of new knowledge developed at the cellular and molecular level into an understanding of the biology of the intact animal.

		Feeds marginal-to-high in nitrates should be slowly introduced to animals, and the allowable amount of such feed should be fed over the course of the day instead of feeding it all at once.
		Also, hungry animals should not be allowed access to feeds with moderate-to-high nitrate levels but should be fed low nitrate feeds first to curb their appetite.
		Adequate energy, particularly rapidly fermentable carbohydrates, must be in the diet to facilitate the utilization of nitrate nitrogen by rumen bacteria, and adequate minerals and vitamins, especially Vitamin A, must be supplied.
