Journal of Animal and Feed Sciences

The journal has been published by the Kielanowski Institute of Animal Physiology and Nutrition, Polish Academy of Sciences (Jabłonna, Poland) since 1991. JAFS is an international scientific journal published quarterly, about 40 papers per year including original papers, short communications and occasionally reviews. All papers are peer-reviewed and related to basic and applied researches in the field of animal physiology, physiology of nutrition, animal feeding, feed technology, food preservation, breeding and genetics. The journal distinguishes the multidisciplinary nature of physiological and nutritional sciences and so includes papers specialized in molecular and cell biology, the emerging area of genetics and on the influence of animal husbandry on the environment and vice versa.
