Two experiments were done on the digestibility of Townsville lucerne seed with pod by sheep in metabolism cages. In one experiment, all sheep were fed the same amount (454 g dry matter seed with pod each day) and mean dry matter digestibility was 58.6 � 3.4 per cent. In the other, three different levels of seed with pod were fed, and mean organic matter digestibility ranged from 54.0 � 1.2 to 68.3 4 1.8 per cent, but digestibility was not significantly inversely related to mean organic matter intake which ranged from 438 � 69 to 335 & 10 g/day (P>0.05). The seed with pod contained, as per cent of dry matter, 5.54 per cent nitrogen, 0.36 per cent phosphorus, 0.30 per cent sulphur, and 0.88 per cent calcium. The sheep were in positive nitrogen balance, but in negative phosphorus balance. Between 8 and 14 per cent of actual seed consumed was defaecated unbroken. Up to 25 per cent of the faecal organic matter was unbroken seed, which was of high germination capacity (76 per cent). Amount of defaecated seed (P<0.001) and the defaecated seed as a percentage of faecal organic matter (P<0.02) were linearly related to amount of actual seed consumed. Factors affecting the amount of undamaged seed in the faeces and a possible technique for assessing seed consumption by grazing animals are discussed.

The digestibility and voluntary intake of P. coloratum CV. Kabulabula, P. coloratum var. Makarikariense CV. Burnett and C.P.I. 13372, P. maximum var. trichoglume CV. Petrie Green Panic, P. maximum cv. Coloniao guinea grass and Hamil were measured with sheep in metabolism pens. Each grass was cut eight to ten times at different growth stages and times of the year. Varieties differed (P<0.01) in their dry matter and organic matter digestibility but the maximum mean difference between varieties was only 2.8 and 3.4 per cent respectively. There were large differences in voluntary intake between grasses. P. maximum cv. Hamil had a voluntary intake 50 and 27 per cent greater than P. coloratum cv. Kabulabula when both had p dry matter digestibility of 50 and 60 per cent respectively. Voluntary intake of digestible organic matter of P. maximum CV. Hamil was 26 per cent higher than that of P. coloratum CV. Kabulabula. The higher intake of P. maximm occurred despite its having higher silicon percentages than P. coloratum. It was concluded that because of the biased relation between intake and digestibility selection of grasses on the basis of digestibility determinations alone could be a misleading guide to their nutritional value.

This investigation was conducted to determine the chemical composition and nutritional value of five plant species commonly used as ruminant feeds namely: Artemisia herba-alba, Acer monspessulanum, Amygdalus lycoides, Amygdalus scoparia, and Atriplex leucoclada. After the collecting samples, the chemical compositions of plants included dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), ash (CA), cell wall (NDF), and non-lignin cell wall (ADF) were determined according to standard methods. For degradation testing, the nylon bag technique was applied using three native Sistani fistula calves. Organic matter digestibility (OMD) and metabolisable energy (ME) were determined through the gas production technique. The CP value ranged from 5.30 (Amygdalus scoparia) to 11.72% (Atriplex leucoclada) while NDF value ranged from 52.62 (Amygdalus lycoides) to 69.05% (Amygdalus scoparia). The range of OMD, DOMD, and ME was from 36.67 to 53.27%, 34.67 to 49.11%, and 5.57 to 8.08 (MJ/kg), respectively. The results showed a positive correlation between cell wall composition and dry matter digestibility in plant species. The nutritional value of Amygdalus lycoides, Atriplex leucoclada, Acer monspessulanum, and Artemisia herba-alba was acceptable composition and digestibility.
