The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of intermittent use of direct-fed microbial addition (DFM-“RE3®”) on growth performance and health status of indigenous guinea fowls in northern Ghana. One-hundred and eighty day-old guinea keets were randomly assigned to 4 direct-fed micr...

Feeding value of Erythrina abyssinica leaves were evaluated with native sheep and goats at Soddo, southern Ethiopia in a 21-day digestibility and 80- day growth trial. In the digestibility trial, wilted leaves of E. abyssinica were fed add libitum, while in the growth trial, animals were offered ...

There are widely varying perceptions of the acceptability of Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) Steud. to ruminants in different parts of the tropics. The possibility that there is a genetic basis for this apparent variation was investigated in a series of feeding experiments with small ruminants. The sam...

Information on the utilisation of legume hays from an intercropping system as a feed supplement is limited. Three forage legume hays (Stylosanthes guianensis, Lablab purpureus and Aeschynomene histrix) were compared by feeding them as supplements for yearling West African Dwarf rams (LWt 18.0±2.2...
