introduction using agro-industrial by-products in ruminants feeding could help in semi arid climate condition throughout the year. raisin by-product is produced in huge magnitude in malayer city, hamedan province. local different raisin by-products which produced during machinery cleaning and sorting of sun dried treated grapevine cluster (vitisvinifera l. cv. sultana), are as:1) some outer lay...

In order to provide recommendations on the most useful forage species to smallholder farmers, eleven grass and eleven legume forages grown in Abomey-Calavi in Republic of Benin were investigated for nutritive value (i.e. chemical composition and energy content) and fermentation characteristics (i.e. gas and volatile fatty acid production, organic matter degradability). The in vitro gas producti...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the optimum proportion sorghum straw and ammoniated wheat in vitro vivo apply ruminant diets. One-factor two-factor experimental designs were used tests, with different ratios (S:AWS) 2:8, 3:7, 4:6, 5:5, 6:4, 7:3, 8:2 measure total gas production, CH4 dry matter degradability (IVDMD), organic (IVOMD) fermentation parameters. Additionally, nylon bag t...

Pineapple waste silage (PAS) is an abundant agro-industrial by-product characterized by its high fiber content posing a potential feed value as roughage for ruminants. Studies on supplementation with proteolytic enzyme (PE) will help extend utilization alternative nutritive source cattle nutrition. Thus, this study aimed to determine the in vitro nutrient degradability and fermentation characte...

Four in vitro experiments (Exp.) were conducted to evaluate lavender essential oil (LEO) effects at 0 (control), 250 (low dose), 500 (medium dose), 750 and 1000 µL per L (high doses) of incubation medium on rumen gas production kinetics (Exp.1), ruminal digestibility and fermentation (Exp.2), methane production (Exp.3) and rumen acidosis (Exp.4). The asymptote of gas production (A) increased qu...

This study evaluated the in situ ruminal degradability, and subsequent small intestinal digestibility (SID) of dry matter, crude protein (CP), and amino acids (AA) of cottonseed meal (CSM), sunflower seed meal (SFSM) and distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) by using the modified three-step in vitro procedure. The ruminal degradability and subsequent SID of AA in rumen-undegradable prote...

Many feed and forages are exposed to low, medium or high levels of organophosphorous (OP) pesticides. It is unclear whether these exposures (for example diazinon as an OP pesticide) impact dry matter degradability parameters. So, different levels (0, 0.7, 2.8 and 5.6 mg) of diazinon as an OP pesticide with different levels of calcium bentonite (CB) (0 and 100 mg) as a toxin binder were tested f...
