The experiments reported here were specifically designed to compare in tropical sheep and goats the digestibility, energy and nitrogen utilization of silages and silage plus concentrate under identical environmental conditions. In addition, growth trials were also conducted. The first trial utili...

Studies on the utilization of brewers' dried grains by sheep and goats: 1. Growth studies
The aetiology of geophagia in periurban dairy cattle in Nigeria was assessed in relation to the mineral status of the serum, the herbage consumed, and the soil from where the herbage was consumed. The study was carried out using nine herds in the derived savannah zone during both the wet and dry ...
