Basing dual-purpose sorghum genetic improvement work on untested laboratory traits could clearly present uncertain results for the breeding objective. In that context, this study compares a wide range of chemical (nitrogen, fiber constituents neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (A...

An experiment was conducted with Friesian X Zebu (Boran) crossbred growing steers to compare an agro-industrial by-product, wheat middling cowpea hay, and wilted forages of leucaena and tagasaste as cattle feed. These feeds were fed daily to supplement the basal diet of native hay. A mineral supp...
