Summary

It is widely recognized that the most important factor in growth of a fermenting organism is the moisture of or relative humidity (RH) surrounding a natural substrate. Mold spores have different minimum water requirements at different temperatures and the presence or absence of nutrients also affects water requirements for growth. Hence, three experiments were designed to investigate the influence of moisture content on the nutritive value of the fermented preparations for chick growth.
