Abstract: A feed composition which limits the feed intake for animals, preferably swine, is disclosed which comprises grain or other feed materials and an intake limiting amount of a saccharide ester, preferably a saccharide ester selected from the group consisting of sucrose octaacetate, naringin, phenylglucopyranose, benzylglucopyranose, tetramethylglucose and glucose pentaacetate.

Abstract: A composition for limiting feed supplement intake for animals is disclosed which comprises an acidulated fat, wherein acidulation of the fat is carried out at a temperature of at least about 220.degree. F. with an acid, preferably a mineral acid. The acidulated fat can be incorporated into the feed supplement at a level exceeding 1.5% by weight to control intake or combined with other intake limiters such as meat meal, diammonium phosphate, and ammonium sulfate for intake control. This composition controls feed supplement intake by the animal when added thereto, permitting self-rationed feeding without waste.

Abstract: A liquid feed composition for cattle is disclosed which is capable of controlling consumption by cattle to a desired level without the use of equipment for this purpose. The liquid feed composition includes an intake limiting amount of an acidulated fat wherein acidulation of the fat is carried out at a temperature of at least about 220.degree. F. with a mineral acid.

Abstract: A composition for limiting feed supplement intake for ruminants is disclosed which comprises a chlorinated fat having a reacted chlorine content in an amount effective to limit intake or usually between about 0.2 and 7.0% by weight of said fat. The chlorinated fat can be incorporated into a feed supplement at a level effective to limit intake, preferably at a level exceeding 1.0% by weight, in addition to being employed with other intake limiters such as meat meal, diammonium phosphate, and ammonium sulfate in a feed supplement for intake control. The noted composition controls feed supplement intake by ruminants when added thereto permitting self-rationed feeding without waste.

Abstract: A composition for limiting feed supplement intake for cattle is disclosed which comprises at least one member of a group of compounds, including mixtures of these compounds, having the formula: ##STR1## in which R is a C.sub.9 to C.sub.17 saturated aliphatic group and R.sup.1 is hydrogen or a lower alkyl such a methyl, ethyl, propyl, or a cation such as sodium or potassium together with meat meal, diammonium phosphate, and ammonium sulfate. Furthermore, a compound of the above general type, has been found to control feed supplement intake in cattle without the additional intake limiting ingredients. These compositions control feed supplement intake by cattle upon addition to the feed supplement, thereby permitting self-rationed feeding to the cattle without waste, yet providing the right degree of weight maintenance for the animal.

Abstract: A composition for limiting feed supplement intake for cattle is disclosed which comprises at least one member of a group of compounds having the formula: ##STR1## wherein A is a hydroxyl or RB is a halogen or hydroxyl or RC is a halogen, or C is a hydroxyl in the event thatB is a halogen or C is a hydroxyl if B is also a hydroxyland A is Rwherein ##STR2## and preferably wherein R.sup.1 is a C.sub.9 -C.sub.

Abstract: An improved composition has been developed to effectively and efficiently limit protein or feed supplement intake to a prescribed amount in ruminants when added to the supplement and which in turn allows self-feeding of the supplement. The composition contains diammonium phosphate and/or ammonium sulfate, meat meal and oleoresin capsicum.

Abstract: A uniquely palatable horse feed is prepared by employing certain prescribed amounts of citric acid in the feed.

Abstract: Lemon oil at extremely low levels is found to greatly enhance the palatability of even an extruded horse ration.
