The effect of Acacia angustissima on rumen fermentation was evaluated. Acacia angustissima was fed to two groups of cannulated Ethiopian highland sheeOne group (three animals) was directly supplemented with 300 g per head day-1 of sun-dried A. angustissima. These animals died after 9 and 21 days ...


Odenyo, A.A.Osuji, P.O.Karanfil, O.Adinew, K.[Microbiological evaluation of Acacia angustissima as a protein supplement for sheep]Microbiological evaluation of Acacia angustissima as a protein supplement for sheep

This manual has been produced to standardise some analytical procedures at ILCA and among those NARS scientists who may be interested in the aspects of feed evaluation which the manual attempts to address. The first part of the manual is on determination of voluntary intake, digestion and retenti...

The rumen degradation and gas production characteristics (methane, carbondioxide) of leaves of 20 accessions of multipurpose trees (MPTs) from six genera: Acacia, Cajanus, Chamaecytisus Link, Erythrina, Leaucaena and Sesbania and some poisonous plants were investigated in vitro and in sacco in ru...

Fermentation of legume fodder tree leaves by rumen microorganisms was evaluated. The substrates were sun-dried, ground leaves. Gas and volatile fatty acid (VFAs) production were estimated. Using gas production as an index of fermentation at 12 h, the leaves tested ranked as follows; Chamaecytisus...

Acacia angustissima has potential as a fodder tree, but was toxic to sheep when fed without adaptation at levels higher than 50 g per day in previous studies. In the present study it was determined that rats are sensitive to anti-nutritional factor(s) of A. angustissima and can therefore be used ...
