Present experiment was conducted to study the effect of feeding lucerne straw and urea treated wheat based TMR (Total Mixed Ration) on nutrients intake, digestibility nutrients, rumen parameters, microbial protein synthesis enteric methane emissions in crossbred bullocks. Experiment 15 bullocks for 50 days using Completely Randomized Design. The animals control group (T1) were fed with 70% 30% ...

Near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to predict the chemical composition, apparent digestibility and digestible nutrients and energy content of commercial extruded compound foods for dogs. Fifty-six foods of known chemical composition and in vivo apparent digestibility were analysed overall and 51 foods were used to predict gross energy digestibility and digestible energy cont...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of pistachio by-product silage (PBPS) as a partial replacement for corn silage (CS) on chewing activity, nutrients digestibility and ruminal fermentation parameters in Holstein male calves over a 6-month assay. For this purpose, 24 Holstein male calves (4 to 5 months of age and 155.6±13.5 kg BW) were randomly assigned to one of the four d...

An experiment was conducted to compare different dietary vegetable sources of starch and protein on the coefficient of apparent total tract digestibility (CATTD) of energy and nutrients and performance of piglets from 29 to 60 d of age. The experiment was completely randomized with 6 treatments arranged factorially with 3 sources of starch (cooked-flaked corn, cooked-flaked rice, and pea starch...

The nutritional value of a feedstuff isn’t only on its chemical composition, however, the content nutrients absorb by aid fish. Thus, this study was developed to determine crude protein digestibility status five feeds (noug cake (NK), wheat bran (WB), soybean meal (SM), brewery waste (BW), and fish (FM) in Oreochromis niloticus. experiment conducted using 180 niloticus population with wei...

—The current experiment was performed to determine apparent protein and energy digestibility coefficients of feed ingredients by the fecal stripping technique using extruded diets. The ingredients tested included five fish meals, three terrestrial animal by-products, five plant protein concentrates, four plant meals, and seven low-protein plant ingredients. Protein digestibility differed among ...

The aim of current study was to determine in vitro digestibility, some microbiological properties and shelf life fermented sucuk foods consisting mixture animal vegetable natural goods produced for dogs. Grain-inclusive grain-free formulations were prepared. group subgrouped as cooked uncooked grain. In digestibility chemical composition 3 groups determined at 0, 1, 3, 6 months after production...

AIM This study was planned to investigate the effect of feeding different levels of chayote (Sechium edule) meal by replacing standard concentrate mixture (CM) on the growth parameters such as feed intake, body weight gain, average daily gain (ADG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR), and nutrient utilization in indigenous pig of Mizoram. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-four growing indigenous pigs ...

A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of chitosan on enteric methane (CH4) and total tract nutrient digestibility of beef heifers consuming either a high-concentrate (HC; 85% concentrate) or a low-concentrate (LC; 36% concentrate) diet. Heifers were provided their respective diets ad libitum along with one of three dietary inclusion rates of chitosan: 1) CTRL=0.0% of chitosan in the die...
