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...

The low quality and slow fermenting roughage basal diets in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) amply justifies the need to supplement such basal diets. Fodder trees have proved to attractive recently as energy, protein and mineral supplements when ruminants are fed such fibrous roughages. Unlike the morer ...
