中国の研究チームは、季節的な飼料不足が生産を制限する寒冷な乾燥地域において、グルコースベースの飼料添加物が子羊の成長と肉質を改善する可能性があると発表した。中国科学院西北生態環境資源研究院のチームは、羊の飼料にルーメン保護グルコース（RPG）を添加することで、成長が促進され、肉質の重要な指標である筋肉内脂肪が増加することを確認した。
厳しい気候条件下では、長期の乾季に牧草の質が低下し、タンパク質含有量が減少することで、高品質な子羊の生産が制限される。研究の結果、RPGの添加は肉の色を改善し、筋肉代謝をより多くの脂肪蓄積へと導く助けとなることがわかった。本研究の責任著者であるヤン・グオ（Yang Guo）氏は、この手法により栄養素の吸収方法が改善され、栄養素の損失が抑えられ、飼料効率が向上することで、標的を絞った栄養供給が可能になると述べている。この研究は乾燥地域における羊の飼育が抱える課題に取り組むものであり、肉質と生産効率を向上させるための潜在的な手段を提供するものである。

Researchers at Case Western Reserve University report that some gut bacteria can make unusually inflammatory forms of glycogen and that this microbial glycogen can trigger immune activity linked to brain inflammation in models of disease tied to the C9orf72 mutation. In patient stool samples, the team found these glycogen forms more often in ALS and C9orf72-related frontotemporal dementia than in healthy controls, and enzymatically breaking down glycogen in the gut improved outcomes in mice.
Deputy Prime Minister Temesgen Tiruneh has inaugurated a modern salt and fodder production factory in Afar region's Zone 1, Assayita woreda. The facility, built on 2,540 hectares, utilizes Awash River water. It creates 1,000 jobs and supports livestock development.

The Gambela region's agriculture bureau has given special attention to irrigated agricultural products that bolster food security in lowland areas. In the 2018/19 irrigated crop season, over 180,000 hectares were cultivated, yielding more than 5.8 million quintals for distribution, officials stated.
Scientists have developed a hybrid obesity treatment that uses GLP-1 and GIP signals to deliver a metabolic enhancer directly into cells. Early tests in mice showed greater weight loss and better blood sugar control than standard therapies. The approach aims to reduce side effects by limiting the drug's action to targeted areas.

A year-long observational study in Japan suggests that people with type 2 diabetes who tend to overeat in response to tempting food cues such as sight and smell may see greater weight loss—and possibly better blood-sugar improvement—after starting GLP-1 receptor agonists, while those with primarily emotional eating patterns show less consistent links to long-term outcomes.
Researchers at Vrije Universiteit Brussel have found that sourdough fermentation activates enzymes in wheat to break down arabinoxylans, influencing bread texture, digestibility and flavor. The study highlights how acidity drives this process more than microbes. Specific bacteria contribute to distinctive tastes like buttery aromas.
