The study investigated the effect of intercropping cereals (maize, sorghum and wheat) with forage legumes (lablab and clover), planting methods and manure application on cereal grain and fodder dry matter yield and fodder nutritive value. Data collected over a period of three years, indicated tha...

Sixteen rumen fistulated Ethiopian Menz type sheep were used in a completely randomized block design in experiment 1. Unchopped teff straw was fed alone or supplemented with either 100, 150 or 200 g/d of sun-dried vernonia leaves. The chemical composition of fresh, boiled, water-soaked and sun-dr...

Twenty five rumen fistulated Ethiopian Menz sheep were used in a completely randomized block design to determine roughage utilization when different types of supplements (sesbania, leucaena, cotton seed cake (CSC) and forms (fresh or dry leucaena) were fed. The chemical composition, intake, diges...


Bonsi, M.L.K.Osuji, P.O.Tuah, A.K.Umunna, N.N.[Intake, digestibility, nitrogen balance and certain rumen characteristics of Ethiopian Menz sheep fed teff straw supplemented with cotton seed cake, dry sesbania, dry leucaena or fresh leucaena]Intake, digestibility, nitrogen balance and certain rumen characteristics of Ethiopian Menz sheep fed teff straw supplemented with cotton seed cake, dry sesbania, dry leucaena or fresh leucaena

In vitro gas production, dry matter and nitrogen degradabilities of fresh and sun-dried foliages of four fodde trees (FTs) (Sesbania sesban, Leucaena leucocephala, Chamaecytisus palmensis (tagasaste), Vernonia amygdalina) and of teff straw were estimated. In Experiment 1, feed samples were incuba...

A series of trials were conducted to study the effect of either nitrogen source or supply pattern on the growth, rumen fermentation pattern and utilisation of straw by Ethiopian Menz sheeAll experimental sheep were given teff straw basal diet (CON). Irrespective of the trial, treatment sheep were...

This study evaluates the differences in the gas produced by Sesbania accessions and related gas production to macro-constituents and tannin content of the browse species. Fresh samples were incubated in triplicate in a medium prepared from sieved rumen liquor harvested from two rumen-fistulated c...
