Discusses the nutritive value of the crop residue and byproducts from groundnuts in relation to the potential influence that crop improvement programs could have on improving their utilization by livestock. Compares nutritional composition and in vitro digestibility of groundnut cake, cottonseed ...
Discusses the relationships between three digestion inhibitors (lignin, tannin, and biogenic silica) and the feeding behaviour of six African ungulates (Thomson's gazelle, grants gazelle, Kongoni, wildebeest, camels, and cattle (Bos indicus)) in relation to browse/grass comparisons and mixed spec...

Nutritive value of range plants, inhibitory plant compounds, and mixed species utilization
Mixed farming systems in semi-arid West Africa rely on recycling organically bound nutrients to maintain soil productivity. The passage of plant biomass through ruminant livestock plays a major role in the nutrient cycles of this region. The feeding value of crop residues and browses and their im...
