Twenty five rumen fistulated Ethiopian Menz sheep were used in a completely randomized block design to determine roughage utilization when different types of supplements (sesbania, leucaena, cotton seed cake (CSC) and forms (fresh or dry leucaena) were fed. The chemical composition, intake, diges...

In vitro gas production, dry matter and nitrogen degradabilities of fresh and sun-dried foliages of four fodde trees (FTs) (Sesbania sesban, Leucaena leucocephala, Chamaecytisus palmensis (tagasaste), Vernonia amygdalina) and of teff straw were estimated. In Experiment 1, feed samples were incuba...

The effect of five multipurpose trees (MPTs), Acacia angustissima, Acacia saligna, Chamae-cytisus palmensis, Leucaena pallida and Sesbania sesban on ciliate protozoa was investigated in rumen cannulated Ethiopian sheeBoth entodiniomorphs and holotrichs were counted. The protozoa counts from S. se...

This study was aimed at determining the effects of feeding an energy source on nitrogen utilization by Ethiopian Menz rams. Intake, digestibility, teff straw degradation, rumen pH and ammonia-nitrogen, nitrogen balance and purine derivatives were measured in the digestibility and nylon bag studie...

Multipurpose trees (MPTs) improve the utilization of poor quality roughages. In addition to their feed value, MPTs contribute to the environment, e.g. by conserving soil. However, some MPTs contain anti-nutritional factors which reduce their nutritive value. Trials in which gas production and rum...
