چکیده

The effects of physical processing of forage diets on their value as feedstuffs for ruminants has been reviewed by Minson (1963)~ Beardsley (1964), Moore (1964), Campling & Milne (1972), Greenhalgh & Wainman (1972), Jarrige, Demarquilly, Journet & Beranger (1973) and Wilkins (1973). In this review we have therefore attempted to concentrate attention upon the chemical and physical changes produced in forages by harvesting and processing, to indicate briefly the effects upon voluntary intake and the net energy (NE) of the feedstuffs, and finally to review the mechanisms which might explain the effects of processing.

Influence of Processing of Barley Grain on Characteristics of Digestion, Ruminal Fermentation and Digestible Energy of Diet inLactating Cows

A digestion trial using cannulated lactating cows was conducted to evaluate the influence of barley grain processing on characteristics of ruminal fermentation and the site and extent of digestion. The experiment consisted in 4 periods and lasted 84 days. The total mixed rations contained 39.86% of grains and 42.90% of alfalfa hay and the rest of ration was composed mainly by cane molasses, fat...

Study on the Use of Dried Poultry Litter in the Camel's Ration

A feeding trial of 120 days duration was conducted to study the effect of replacing 20 and 25 % of camel ration by poultry litter (PL) on the performance and some blood biochemical parameters. Fifteen healthy one–humped camels were allotted into three groups (5 animals / group). The first group was fed a basal ration and considered as control, while the second and third groups were fed rations ...
