Nutritive value, fermentation characteristics, and in situ disappearance kinetics of ensiled warm-season legumes and bahiagrass

Nutritive value, fermentation characteristics, and in situ disappearance kinetics of sorghum silage treated with inoculants.

Fibrolytic enzymes and microbial inoculants have the potential to improve the value of sorghum feedstuff and feedstock. An experiment was conducted to determine nutritive value, ensiling characteristics, and in situ disappearance kinetics of 4 sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) silage varieties: Dairy Master BMR (DBMR; brown midrib; Richardson Seed, Vega, TX), PS 747 (PS; photoperiod sensitive; Pogue...

Estimating fermentation characteristics and nutritive value of ensiled and dried pomegranate seeds for ruminants using in vitro gas production technique

The purpose of this study was to determine the chemical composition and estimation of fermentation characteristics and nutritive value of ensiled and dried pomegranate seeds using in vitro gas production technique. Samples were collected, mixed, processed (ensiled and dried) and incubated in vitro with rumen liquor taken from three fistulated Iranian native (Taleshi) steers at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 1...

Photosynthesis and Nutritive Value in Leaves of Three Warm-Season Grasses before and after Defoliation

Variation in the nutritive value of forages with maturity has been extensively researched (Buxton and MerForage yields are influenced by plant response to defoliation. We tens, 1995; Sollenberger and Cherney, 1995) and shifts examined the photosynthesis and nutritive value of first (first leaves) in proportions of leaf and stem during maturation of and third (third leaves) fully expanded leaves...

effect of bataine and sulphate supplement on wool and milk characteristics and lambs performance in naine ewes

تعداد 20 رأس میش نژاد نائینی 6+-24 ماهه، با میانگین وزن 2/3-+40 کیلوگرم، همراه با 20 رأس بره های آنها در قالب طرح کاملا تصادفی اثر بتائین و مکمل سولفات بر خصوصیات شیر و پشم و عملکرد بره ها بررسی شد. میش ها بطور تصادفی در چهار تیمار قرار گرفتند. تیمارها عبارت بودند از: 1-گروه شاهد 2-بتائین (05/0 درصد ماده خشک) 3-سولفات (24/0 سولفور درصد ماده خشک 4-بتائین هرماه با سولفات. جیره غذائی طبق nrc با مح...
