[ 1 ] - Crude Protein Content does not Determine the Preference Value of Plant Species for the Raini Goat (Capra aegagrus hircus L.) in Dry Rangelands

In order to estimate the relationship between forage quality and preference value of plant species for Raini goats(Capra aegagrus hircus), a field study was carried out on Raini goats’ grazing behavior in some desert habitats.Crude protein (as the most important factor affecting forage quality) of all plant species was measured at twophenological stages (spring and summer, 2010) in the dry rang...
