چکیده
This study evaluated the effect of cotton products (whole cottonseed and cake) on semen characteristics testiculo-epididymal histology Red Sokoto bucks. A total twenty-four (24) healthy red bucks were used randomly allocated to six dietary treatments four animals (n=4) per group in a completely randomized design. The contained 10, 20 30% inclusion levels either Whole (WCS) or Cottonseed cake (CSC) diets fed over period 98 days. Semen obtained via electroejaculator was analyzed; parameters assessed include pH, volume, concentration, motility, live-dead ratio sperm morphological abnormalities. Testes epididymides excised processed routinely for histological evaluation. Spermatozoa concentration live dead decreased significantly with increasing WCS compared trend observed CSC diets. Testicular histopathological lesions moderate severe seminiferous tubular depletion, reduced germ cell layers, emptied luminal contents disrupted interstitial tissue their others Also, epididymal parenchyma remarkably distorted relative groups. In conclusion, this has demonstrated that higher up had deleterious histomorphology. Hence, farmers are encouraged be cautious buck’s feed.
 
 Cette étude évalué l’effet des produits de coton (graines entières et tourteaux coton) sur les caractéristiques du sperme l’histologie testiculo-épididymaire boucs Sokoto. Un vingt-quatre mâles en bonne santé ont été utilisés répartis au hasard dans traitements alimentaires quatre animaux (n = 4) par groupe une conception entièrement randomisée.

Lésions histopathologiques testiculaires déplétion tubulaire séminifère modérée sévère, couches cellules germinales réduites, contenu vidé tissu interstitiel perturbé leurs autres De plus, parenchyme épididymaire était remarquablement déformé aux groupes En cette démontré que plus élevés jusqu’à avaient un effet délétère l’histomorphologie testiculo-épididymaire. Par conséquent, agriculteurs sont encouragés être prudents l’inclusion l’alimentation bouc.

Digestibility and effects of whole cottonseed fed to lactating cows.
Four lactating Holstein cows producing about 21 kg milk/day were fed complete rations containing 0, 5, 15, and 25% whole cottonseed in a 4 X 4 Latin square design. Diets were fed ad libitum. Periods were 21 days in length with total collections of feces and urine during the last 7 days of each period. Digestibilities o nitrogen, lipid, and energy increased with increasing cottonseed in the diet...
متن کاملEffects of feeding whole cottonseed and cottonseed products on performance and carcass characteristics of finishing beef cattle.
Three experiments were conducted to determine the effects of whole cottonseed or cottonseed products on performance and carcass characteristics of beef cattle. In Exp. 1, 120 beef steers (initial BW = 381 +/- 31.7 kg) were fed steam-flaked corn-based finishing diets with 10% (DM basis) basal roughage, and whole cottonseed or individual cottonseed components (cottonseed hulls, meal, and oil). Ov...

No other feed ingredient provides the combination of effective fiber, energy, and protein like whole cottonseed (WCS). These characteristics make WCS an attractive ingredient for including in rations fed to lactating dairy cows that require high concentrations of energy and adequate effective fiber. But like most ingredients, the composition of WCS has changed. The 2002 cotton crop was negative...

متن کاملUtilization of Whole Cottonseed and Hay in Beef Cow Diets
Whole cottonseed (WCS) have become a very popular by-product feed for dairy cattle and for wintering beef cows in the Southern USA. The product is locally available to many producers across the region, and in most years WCS are competitively priced with other feedstuffs. Over time, ruminant nutritionists have recommended that WCS should be fed at about 0.5% of average body weight (BW), or about...
