The objective of this study was to evaluate nutrient digestibility and physiological status of local sheep at late pregnancy fed with flushing diet containing palm oil, lemuru oil, and their combination. In this research, the livestock used were 12 female local sheep at late pregnancy with an average body weight of 43.58 ± 5.57 kg were placed in metabolic cages. This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with 4 treatments and 3 block replications. The treatments were P1 = control ration (30% grass + 70% concentrate), P2 = control ration + 6% palm oil supplementation, P3 = control ration + 3% lemuru oil and 3% palm oil supplementation, P4 = control ration + 6% lemuru oil supplementation. The feed consumption, nutrient digestibility, and physiological status were measured in this study. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA. Means values differences were analyzed using Duncan test. The results showed that the addition of palm oil and lemuru oil to the concentrate diet increased (p<0.05) crude fat consumption, dry matter digestibility, and crude fat digestibility, but decreased (p<0.05) Nitrogen free extract consumption. Addition of palm oil and lemuru oil on the concentrate diet had no significant effect on dry matter consumption, crude protein consumption, crude fiber consumption, crude protein digestibility, crude fiber digestibility, Nitrogen free extract digestibility, and TDN value. The treatments did not affect significantly  on physiological status. It can be concluded that the use of 6% palm oil in the ration can increase crude fat consumption and crude fat digestibility in pregnant ewes. Key words:        digestibility, ewes, flushing, oil, physiological status

Nulliparous crossbred does were used to study the effects of concentrate:lablab ratio (CL) and stage of pregnancy on nutrient intake and digestibility. Treatments consisted of four concentrate and lablab combinations on a gram:gram basis: 20:130, 40: 110, 80:70 and 100:50 and two stages of pregnancy: second and fourth week of pregnancy Concentrate intake increased as level increased up to 80g/day offered while lablab intake increased from 50 to 130g/day offered. Doe weight and metabolic size were similar for all treatments. Total feed intake was not affected by concentrate and lablab levels. Dry matter intake was lower for 100:50 CL than other treatments. Ether extract and crude fibre intakes decreased with increase in concentrate levels. Dry matter and nitrogen free extract digestibility were higher for 80:70 CL than other combinations. Crude fibre digestibility was higher for 80:70 than 40:110 and 100:50 CL Crude protein retention was higher for 80:70 than 20:130 and 100:50 CL. Fetal growth requirement, total protein requirement and balance of protein were high at 80:70 and 100:50 CL. During pregnancy, dry matter and all nutrients intake were higher in the second than fourth week. Ether extract, crude protein and nitrogen free extract digestibilities were lower in the second than fourth week of pregnancy. Fetal growth requirement and balance of protein were higher in the second than fourth week of pregnancy relationship between feed intake (g DM/day) and nutrient digestibility was negative. The relationship between feed intake (g DM/kg body weight/day) and feed intake (g DM/kg LW0.75/day) was however, positive for all the nutrients except crude protein. For the small scale rabbit producer in developing countries, it is feasible to maintain rabbits on combinations of concentrate and lablab during pregnancy

The aim of this paper is to study the chemical composition of a green fodder used in laying hens feeding raised in ecological system; organic fodder being an important condition to obtain organic eggs for consumption. In order to evaluate the chemical composition variations of the green fodder throughout the year, there were taken plants samples in three different vegetation stages (May, September and October). To each period, were done 5 determinations for the following indicators: dry matter - DM (%), ash - Ash (%), crude protein - CP (%), ether extract - EE (%), crude fiber -CF(%), nitrogen free extract - (NFE%) calcium � Ca(%), phosphorus - P(%), magnesium - Mg (%), natrium -Na(%). And also, were analyzed the relevant indexes for the organic production: lead -Pb (mg/kg DM), cadmium - Cd (mg/kg DM), cooper -Cu (mg/kg DM), zinc - Zn (mg/kg DM) nitrites (ppm), nitrates (ppm), pesticides. After analysis, it was noticed that dry matter, minerals, organic matter and protein content varied very significantly between the first period and the third (p �0.001), while the fat content, crude fiber and nitrogen free extract did not register significant differences (p �0.05). Regarding the minerals elements analyzed, P and Mg differed significantly distinctly between the first and the last analyzed period. The content of green fodder in Pb, Cd, Cu and Zn was below the limits allowed by current legislation. The analyses for pesticides have highlighted the lack of them in the fodder. The quality parameters of the analyzed green fodder, expressed through levels of pollutants such as heavy metals, nitrites, nitrates, pesticides, allow us to notify that the green fodders achieve the conditions necessary for organic production.

Although the forages from six autotetraploid barley varieties harvested at the 5-leaf and mature stages of growth contained slightly more crude protein, their feeding value appeared inferior to diploid barley forages because of a lower dry matter and mineral content. Autotetraploid seeds exceeded the diploids by about one-third in percentage of crude protein, crude fiber, potassium, calcium, phosphorus and magnesium but were lower in moisture and nitrogen-free extract. A greater proportion of hulls was a contributing factor in the higher crude fiber and ash content of the autotetraploids. On the basis of their chemical composition, the autotetraploid seeds would make excellent livestock feeds.Prediction tests indicated that, in spite of the large seed and exceptionally high diastatic activity in the autotetraploids, their yield of barley extract would be too low for malting purposes.

Conventional digestion experiments were conducted with wethers to determine the effects of varying nitrogen fertilizer application rates to grass on the intake and digestibility of mature grass hays.Nitrogen fertilizer rates had little effect on dry matter intake.The apparent digestibility of crude protein increased and that of dry matter and nitrogen-free extract decreased linearly (P < 0.01) with increasing nitrogen fertilizer rates.The mean dry matter intake was greater (P < 0.01) per unit body weight and less (P < 0.01) per unit metabolic body size (wt. 0.75) than that previously reported for concurrent digestion experiments with steer calves fed these forages. The apparent digestibility of the dry matter, crude protein, crude fiber, and nitrogen-free extract was less (P < 0.01) in wethers than in steers. There were no significant interactions of species × nitrogen rates for intake and nutrient digestibility.

Sixty single-reared lambs sired by Hampshire rams were used to study the effects of monensin and ryegrass straw on feedlot performance. Two levels of monensin (0 and 27.5 ppm) and two levels of ryegrass straw (0 and 25%) were arranged in a 2 × 2 factorial treatment arrangement. Each of the four pelleted diets was fed ad libitum to 15 lambs. Monensin-fed lambs had lower (P < 0.10) feed intakes, smaller (P < 0.05) loin eye areas and higher (P < 0.10) carcass quality grades than lambs not fed monensin. Although the difference was not significant (P > 0.10), monensin-fed lambs also had improved feed efficiencies over lambs not fed monensin. Crude protein, ether extract and crude fiber digestibilities of the diets were increased by the addition of monensin. Lambs fed ryegrass straw had lower (P < 0.01) average daily carcass gains, lower (P < 0.10) carcass quality grades, lower (P < 0.05) dressing percentages and smaller (P < 0.10) loin eye areas than lambs not fed ryegrass straw. Diet total digestible nutrients and dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, crude fiber and nitrogen-free extract digestibilities were reduced (P < 0.05) when ryegrass straw was present. Key words: Sheep, feedlot lambs, ryegrass straw, monensin

Abstract This study aimed to compare the nutrients consumption and digestibility between Garut rams and ewes fed with forage (elephant grass) and concentrate (pollard bran) with a ratio of 60:40 (based on the dry matter). The livestock used were 6 Garut rams and 6 Garut ewes. They were placed in metabolic cages and equipped with feces containers. This research was conducted 14 days for the adaptation period and 5 days for the collection period. During the collection period, feed, feed residue, and feces collection were carried out for analysis. The analysis consisted of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), nitrogen-free extract (NFE), and total digestible nutrients (TDN). The data obtained were used to calculate nutrient consumption and digestibility. Based on the research, it was known that average consumption and digestibility of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), crude lipid (CL), crude fiber (CF), nitrogen-free extract (NFE), and total digestible nutrients (TDN) of Garut rams and ewes were not significantly different (P>0.05). All nutrients consumed by rams were higher than ewes, but the nutrients digestibility value in rams was lower than ewes.

The need to seek for alternative feed materials to replace maize as source of energy to support growth in weaner rabbits necessitated this study. A feeding trial of 84 days using unsexed rabbit crosses (New Zealand white and Chinchilla) was conducted to assess the replacement value of African Locust bean fruit pulp for maize in weaner rabbits diet. Five diets were formulated, such that 100% maize and 0.00% fruit pulp of African fruit pulp at (T1), 75% maize and 25% inclusion of African locust bean at (T2), 50% maize and 50% African locust bean pulp as (T3), 25% maize and 75% African fruit pulp at (T4) while (T5) contain 100% fruit pulp of African locust bean and 0.00% maize, respectively. Seventy-five (75) weaner rabbits with average initial weight between 610.67g - 622.60g were randomly allocated in a complete randomized design (CRD) experiment to the five diets with fifteen (15) weaner rabbits in each treatment which were subdivided into three (3) replicates having five (5) weaner rabbits in each replicate. The weaner rabbits were housed in individual cage compartment. Data collected were subjected to one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Proximate and Phytochemical composition of sun dried fruit pulp of African locust bean used in the diets showed dry matter content of 91.38 %, crude protein 6.70 %, crude fiber 11.21 % Ether extract 5.04 %, ash 5.02 and nitrogen free extract 63.41 %. The metabolizable energy contained in the ingredient was 3079.41 ME/Kcal/Kg. Proximate composition of the experimental diets fed to weaner rabbits carried out indicated that T1 had dry matter content of 93.28 %, crude protein of 19.80 % and 12.41 % of crude fiber. Ether extract was higher in T5 with 8.48 %, while nitrogen free extract contained in T3 had the highest value of 51.17 %. However, ash content in T5 has the highest value of 7.83 %. The metabolizable energy in all the dietary treatment shows that T5 had the highest value of 3013.21 ME/Kcal/Kg. Nutrient digestibility in weaner rabbits showed crude protein digested during the experimental work in the treatment ranged from 69.46 % to 73.73 %. Crude fiber digested was between the ranges of 42.20 % to 58.12 % in all the treatments. Ash content ranged from 50.18 % to 56.35. T5 has the highest percent nutrient of ether extract digested with 83.36 % while the lowest value was obtained in T1 with 58.99 respectively. Values in nitrogen free extract ranged from 65.20 % to 72.43 % and showed a significance difference (P< 0.05) in all the treatment. Data were collected on daily feed intake and weekly weight. Feed conversion ratio, protein efficiency ratio, energy efficiency ratio, nutrient digestibility and feed cost benefit N (kg) were calculated. Weaner rabbits fed 75% maize and 25% African fruit pulp (T2) consumed more feed and significantly gained more weight (P < 0.05) than those fed the other diets. Feed conversion, protein efficiency ratio and energy efficiency ratio were not significantly (P>.0.05) influenced by the treatment diets while nutrient digestibility showed a significance difference (P < 0.05) in all the treatments. Average feed cost/weight gain of production with maize was estimated at N311.25 in T1 while the African locust bean fruit pulp was N161.81 in T5, a cost difference of N149.44, this resulted to a progressive reduction in the cost treatment of feed with increase in the level of fruit pulp of African locust bean meal. The results of this study indicated that when 25 % fruit pulp of African locust replaced maize, the rabbits performed better than the control diet and also of more economical option.

This experiment aimed to determine the nutrient digestibility of Bligon and Kejobong goats fed by king grass and peanut straw. The sample used was 6 to 8 months of five male Bligon goats, and five male Kejobong goats with the initial body weight of 15 to 20 kg and placed in separated metabolism cages. The diet and water were supplied ad libitum. This experiment was done in 14 days of adaptation period and seven days of the collection period. In the collection period, samples of feed, refusal feed, and feces were collected to get the chemical content includes dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), crude protein (CP), nitrogen-free extract (NFE), and total digestible nutrient (TDN). The data obtained were subjected to a T-test analysis. Results showed that nutrients intake, digested nutrient as well as nutrient digestibility of Bligon and Kejobong goats were not significantly different. However, Kejobong goats had EE and CP intake of 15.42% and 14.02%, digested DM, OM, and NFE of 16.29%, 15.71%, and 13.93% respectively, as well as NFE digestibility 4.37% higher than those Bligon goats (P< 0.05). Therefore, there was no difference in nutrient intake, digested, and digestibility of nutrients in Bligon and Kejobong goats fed by king grass and peanut straw. However, Kejobong goats appeared to have higher EE and CP intake, as well as digested and digestibility of DM, OM, and NFE than Bligon goats.

ABSTRACTObjective. Evaluate the effect of increasing P intake on nutrient digestibility, and compare the true and apparent absorption coefficients of P and Ca in lambs. Materials and methods. Twenty-four Santa Ines sheep, with an average weight of 33.6 ± 1.6 kg, were distributed into four treatments (0, 2, 4 and 6 g/day of supplementary P) with forage: concentrate ratio of 70:30. The study of apparent nutrient digestibility was conducted during the first week, using the total feces collection method. During the second week, after injection of 7.4 MBq of 32P and 7.7 MBq of 45Ca, apparent (AAC) and true (TAC) absorption coefficients of P and Ca were determined. The lambs were kept in metabolic cages. Results. The increase in P intake did not affect (p>0.05) dry matter, crude protein, NDF or ADF digestibility, but the TAC of P and Ca and mineral matter digestibility decreased. The AAC was not affected (p=0.10). A cubic relationship was observed between P intake and TAC (TAC=2.16–1.95X+0.55X2-0.04X3; R2=0.38) and linear relationship with the TAC of Ca (TAC=0.559–0.03X; R2=0.26). TAC and AAC values were different (p<0.001). Conclusions. The increase in P intake doesn’t impact organic matter digestibility, but does affect P and Ca absorption. Apparent digestibility is not a reliable parameter to determine the efficiency of P and Ca absorption.
