Research on elephant grass with 2 x factorial repeated five times has been carried out at AGRO-1 and AGRO-2, Tuntang watershed. Observed variables were: plant height, forage production, dry matter content, crude protein, fiber. Soil samples were observed including soil bulk density, pH, total N. Plant height in was higher (85.1 cm) than the AGRO-2 system (71.5 cm). Season affects growth as indi...

It was confirmed in metabolic experiments with 4 individuals of roe deer (2 males and 2 females with the live weight of 20.8 and 17.9 kg, respectively) that due to the animals’ selective choice of a part of feeds there was no significant difference in the intake of lucerne hay of different quality and high-quality meadow hay (515.86 ± 66.97 and 597.82 ± 94.87 g, respectively). However, differen...

Banana is one of the most important crops, providing multiple benefits. Although it has been widely studied for its health benefits, little information can be found about proteins. This study determined antihypertensive and antioxidant activities crude, purified, hydrolyzed protein extracts from ‘Señorita’ banana pulp. Crude proteins were extracted using Tris-HCl buffer purified through ammoniu...

this experiment was carried out using 200 ross 308 broiler chickens in a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 4 replicates. the true metabolisable energy of the barley hulls were determined using cecectomized roosters.the dry matter, true metabolisable energy, ash, ether extracts, crude protein, crude fiber, ndf, adf, ca and total p content of barely hulls were: 92%, 978 kcal/kg, ...

Background: Greater consumption of fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cancers. The most important nutrients present in plants are carbohydrates, such as the starch and free sugars, oils, proteins, minerals, ascorbic acid, and the antioxidant phenols. Plants are an essential component of the universe. Human beings have used those as medic...

This study investigated the effect of season (wet and dry) on milk composition of the dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius). Milk samples representing the wet and dry seasons were analyzed for total solids (TS), fat (F), solids-non-fat (SNF), ash, crude protein (CP), nitrogen soluble at pH 4.6 (SN), mineral content (MC) and casein fraction (CnF). Camel milk had higher (P

the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of supplementation of different level protein diets with rumen protected methionine and lysine on performance and ruminal parameters in holstein dairy cows when in their early lactation. twenty one dairy cows in their early lactations were assigned to three treatments in a randomized block design experiment of a 35-d duration period. diets...

The effect of a traditional Ethiopian lupin processing method on the chemical composition of lupin seed samples was studied. Two sampling districts, namely Mecha and Sekela, representing the mid- and high-altitude areas of north-western Ethiopia, respectively, were randomly selected. Different types of traditionally processed and marketed lupin seed samples (raw, roasted, and finished) were col...
