This study determined nitrogen degradability and digestibility of rumen undegradable nitrogen using mobile nylon bag (MNB) and pepsin/pancreatin in vitro technique (IV) of 40 browse species. Thirty Ethiopian highland sheep fitted with rumen cannulae were used in nitrogen (N) degradability studies...

The effect of tannins in browse supplements on intake, digestibility and live weight changes was evaluated using sixty-six male Ethiopian Menz sheep in a 90-day trial. Teff straw (Eragrostis tef) was fed ad libitum (control diet), or supplemented with 190 g dried leaves of six Sesbania sesban acc...

The aim of this work was to assess whether degradability, gas production or chemical constituents could predict the preference of browses. Forty tropical browse species leaves with a crude protein (CP) content ranging from 79 to 307 g kg-1 DM were used for this study. The neutral detergent fibre ...

The effect of feeding Leucaena leucocephala, Leucaena pallida, Sesbania sesban and Chamaecytisus palmensis supplements on intake, digestibility and liveweight changes was evaluated using 102 male Ethiopian highland sheep in a 90-day trial. Teff straw (Eragrostis tef) was fed ad libitum (control d...

This study was conducted to determine the long term effect of supplementation of L. pallida and S. sesban on growth and reproductive performance of male Ethiopian highland sheep and goats fed teff straw (Eragrostis tef) basal diet. The results show that there was no significant effect of the diff...
