This study was aimed at evaluating (1) the dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) degradabilities (by sheep) of Sesbania sesban leaves, Acacia albida (Faidhabia albida), A. siberiana and a. tortilis fruits and (2) the effect of feeding a mixture of oilseed cake and tanniferous browses on the degradabil...

This study evaluated the synergism between oilseed (50:50 noug (Guizotia abyssinica) and groundnut) cake (OSC) and tanniferous feeds (pods of Acacia albida and Sesbania sesban leaves) in two experiments. S. sesban has a lower content of soluble phenolics than A. albida pods (196 vs. 270 g/kg). Di...

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...

Six rumen cannulated sheep (26.1 (s.d. 2.24 kg live weight) given maize stover ad libitum were supplemented with either sunflower cake (SFC), decorticated cottonseed (CSC) or noug cakes (NGC) with or without crushed maize grain. The 6x6 Latin-square experiment studied the degradation properties o...

Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of supplementation with fodder tree leaves on the utilization of teff straw. This was aimed at testing the hypothesis that forage supplements (e.g. sesbania) that disappear faster from the rumen compared with those that disappear slowly (eg...

There are conflicting Reports in the literature about the benefits of defaunation, the removal of ciliate protozoa from the rumen, in ruminant production. Ciliate protozoa are not essential for proper functioning of the rumen nor for the life of the host and that their contribution to microbial p...

Foliage from the tropical leguminous tree, Sesbania sesban, is toxic to rumen protozoa in vitro, due to materials present in a saponins-containing extract of the foliage (Newbold et al 1997). Suppression of protozoal numbers in vivo when S. sesban is added to the diet is either transient or non-e...

The experiment was carried out using a replicated (3x3) Latin square design with six sheep, to assess, the effect of supplementing maize stover fed ad libitum at three levels (100, 150 or 200 g) of Leucaena diversifolia. The sheep had an initial live weight of 26.4 kg (+ or -) 1.78 kg. In each pe...
