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...

This paper evaluates the effect of replacement of wheat bran by graded levels of sugar cane molasses on digestibility, degradation of fibre, digestion kinetics of fibre and rumen pool sizes. Four ruminally fistulated crossbred steers were given a basal diet of grass hay ad libitum and wheat bran....

Effect of replacement of concentrate mix by wilted sesbania (Sesbania sesban) forage on diet digestibility, rumen fermentation and milk production in Friesian X Zebu (Boran) crossbred cows fed low quality native hay
An experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of molasses, given at different times, on feed intake, digestibility, degradation of hay dry matter (DM) and rumen pool fermentation. Four ruminally fistulated Friesian X Boran crossbred non-lactating cows were given a basal diet of grass hay ...

The paper evaluates the effects of the level of sugar cane molasses on feed intake, diet digestibility, DM degradation of grass hay, rumen pool sizes and rumen fermentation. Five ruminally fistulated crossbred cows were given a basal diet of grass hay ad libitum and cottonseed cake. The other fou...

This study investigated the effect of feeding oats hay alone or with 250 g of dolichos lablab (Lablab purpureus, 50 percent flowering at harvest) hay, wheat middlings, leaves of sesbania (Sesbania sesban) or tagasaste (Chamaecytisus palmensis) on the growth of 66 Ethiopian Menz sheep and the nutr...
