range forage of vicia variabilis, astragalus spp., medicago sativa, prangos uloptera and sanguisorba minor was sampled during three phenological stages from the controlled rangeland stations in chaharmahal and bakhtiari province, iran. samples were analyzed for the determination of crude protein (cp%), ether extract (ee), crude fiber (cf), total ash, neutral detergent fiber (ndf), acid detergen...

the pomegranate seeds of four iranian commercial varieties  (abanmahi (ab), malas (ms), pust sefid (ps) and shahvar (sh)) were evaluated in terms of some quality properties including protein, oil, dietary fiber, mineral contents and fatty acid composition. physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity of pomegranate seed oils (psos) were also determined. the oil antioxidant activity was m...

The crude oil, crude protein, crude ash, crude fiber, total phenol and antioxidant activity values, peroxide values, specific gravity, the refraxtive index and  acid value of Citrullus lanatus and their oils were determined. Fatty acid composition of seeds belong to both watermelon were determined by Gas Chromotography (GC). These oils are important sources of essential fatty acid,...

this study was conducted to determine the nutritive value of fresh and ensiled whole and partly stoned olive cake (oc) with or without molasses i.e., 0 and 50 gkg-1 on fresh basis. dry matter (dm), organic matter (om), crude protein (cp), neutral detergent fiber (ndf), acid detergent fiber (adf), lignin (sa), ether extract (ee), water soluble carbohydrates (wsc), and total phenols (tph) of all ...

With the rising interest in digestate use as a fertilizer on permanent cultures, there is need to examine its effects food and feed quality. This study focused of grassland fertilization nutritive value parameters such mycotoxin contamination (deoxynivalenol, aflatoxin, T-2 toxin) nutrient content (crude protein, crude fat, fiber, ash, nitrogen-free extract, digestibility organic matter, acid d...

A study was conducted to evaluate the nutrient content and variability of distiller's dried grains with solubles (DDGS) originating from new (less than 5 yr old) ethanol plants in Minnesota and South Dakota. Ten plants (8 MN, 2 SD) participated in the study, submitting a total of 118 samples. Samples were collected every 2 mo from ten ethanol plants in the Minnesota-South Dakota (MNSD) region f...

effect of different planting ratios of oat (avena sativa l.) and vetch (vicia sativa l.) was assessed on quality and quantity of forage and silage in an intercropping system as completely randomized block design (rcbd) with four replications. the treatments were different planting ratios of oat and vetch including 0:100, 20:80, 40:60, 50:50, 60:40, 80:20 and 100:0 (oat-vetch) formed as replacem...
