Performance of dairy cows fed rations produced with sugarcane silages treated with additives or fresh sugarcane

Modeling of Rumen Particle Dynamics in Dairy Cows Fed Sugarcane

Performance of Yankasa Sheep Fed Complete Rations Containing Inclusion Levels of Ensiled Sugarcane Waste with Poultry Litter

A feeding trial was conducted to assess the effect of inclusion of ensiled sugarcane waste (ESCW) with poultry litter on performance of Yankasa rams in a completely randomized design (CRD) for twelve weeks (84 days). Sugarcane waste was mixed with poultry litter in 3:1 and ensiled for 21 days. The ESCW was used as partial replacement in complete diet. Sixteen Yankasa rams (mean body weigh 28.94...

Productive Performance of Laying Hens Fed Different Levels of Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles with or without Certain Feed Additives

The objective of this work was to evaluate the inclusion of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) as substitution for soybean meal in Hisex Brown laying hen diets with or without enzyme or vitamin E supplementation on productive performance. A total number of 180 Hisex Brown laying hens at 26 weeks of age were randomly divided into 15 treatment groups in a 5 × 3 factorial design experime...

Digestive processes of dairy cows fed silages harvested at four stages of grass maturity.

The objective of this experiment was to quantify ruminal digestive processes that could help to identify factors limiting DMI when silages differing in grass maturity were fed to dairy cows. Four silages were harvested at 1-wk intervals from a primary growth of a timothy-meadow fescue sward, resulting in feeds with digestible OM content in DM (D-value) of 739, 730, 707, and 639 g/kg in the orde...

Intercropping with Sugarcane

without any scientific basis. About 20 years ago, researchers In response to requests by small scale cane growers of KwaZulu-Natal for advice on i~nproving their system of crop production, a Joint Project between SASEX and the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Agricul~ure was started in 1996. Trials were initiated to investigate the practicalitics of intercropping rainfed and irrigated cane with food...
