Nine growing barrows were equipped with a T-cannula in the distal ileum and used to determine apparent ileal (AID) and apparent total-tract digestibility (ATTD) coefficients of Ca and P in low-phytate corn, normal corn, soybean meal, and in diets where soybean meal was mixed with low-phytate corn or normal corn. The AID and the standardized ileal digestibility coefficients (SID) of CP and AA al...

The objectives of this experiment were to determine the apparent ileal digestibility and the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of CP and AA in bakery meal, corn gluten meal, corn gluten feed, corn germ meal, and hominy feed and to compare these values with the apparent ileal digestibility and SID of CP and AA in corn and distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS). Eight growing barrows (...

Three experiments were conducted to determine standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of CP and AA, DE and ME, and apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) and standardized total tract digestibility (STTD) of P in a new source of soy protein concentrate (SPC) and in soybean meal (SBM). In Exp. 1, 9 barrows (initial BW: 13.08 ± 1.98 kg) were prepared with a T-cannula in the distal ileum and allo...

A field study was carried out during the summer seasons of 2019 and 2020 at research farm Agriculture University, Kota, Rajasthan, to effect NP fertilization stress mitigating chemicals on productivity profitability cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) baby corn (Zea mays intercropping system. The experiment conducted in a split-split plot design with 5 systems [sole cowpea, sole corn, + (2: 1), (3: 1...

in order to evaluate the yield and nitrogen use efficiency of corn and cotton intercropping under different levels of nitrogen, an experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement based on completely randomized block design with three replications. the experimental treatments were nitrogen fertilizers in four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg ha-1) and planting pattern in three levels (maize sol...

in order to evaluate the effects of intercropping of maize- peanut, weeding and their planting design on weed population dynamics, an experiment was conducted as a factorial experiment in the form of rcbd with three replications at the research farm of agriculture center of zabol university (iran) in 2012. the treatments including sowing system in four levels as first factor  (sole maize, sole ...

Research project entitled “Yield and economic dynamics of intercropping in summer vegetables ” was conducted at Horticultural Research Farm, NWFP Agricultural University, Peshawar (Pakistan) during 1999 and 2000. Summer vegetables were evaluated alone and in various combinations for their yield, land equivalent ratio and income in intercrop combinations. Each plot was 4x4 m whereas number of ro...

in order to examine the effect of degradability rates of different starch sources on performance of holstein dairy cows in their early lactation, twenty multiparous lactating holstein cows (586±33.7 bw; 48.15±9.32 dim) were made use of in a randomized complete block design of four treatments during the 65 days of the experimental period. cows were fed the following diets: 1) 100% barley, 2) 67%...

Background Maize fodder is being used as staple feed for livestock but it lacks protein and essential amino acids; lysine and tryptophan. Intercropping maize with leguminous soybean crop is promising technique under limited land resources of South Korea but it can only give considerable advantages when adequate distance is provided between corn and soybean rows. Main aim of present study was to...

An experiment was carried out during the winter season (rabi) for two years 2019-20 and 2020-21 on Instructional cum Research Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalay, Raipur (C.G.) to enhance production of baby corn through intercropping. The laid in randomized block design (RBD) with eight treatment consisting sole paired row along a combination various legumes. treatments were T1 : (45 x 20...
