Effect Of Ethanol Treatment On Cottonseed Cake Ruminal Degradability

Abstract The study was conducted to determine the effect of treating cotton seed cake (CSC) with three different ethanol concentrations on its ruminal degradation characteristics of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP). Three ethanol water solutions were prepared (v/v) at 50%, %,70% and 90% concentrations, then 500gm of CSC were soaked in excess of each solution for an hour at 78°C. Each mixture was drained through cheese cloth and the treated cakes (ETCSC) were air dried at room temperat...

Each group was further subdivided into...

Effect Of Roast Processing With The Supplementation Of Moringa Leaf Meal On The Nutritional Value Of Full Fat Soya Bean In Broiler Chicks Diets

Abstract A total of hundred and five day old broiler chicks were used to evaluate the effect of feeding different levels of full fat soya bean on their performance. Three dietary treatments containing 0%, 12% and 15% full fat soya bean, to the 15% full fat soya bean 1% Moringa leaf meal was added in the Finisher diet as antioxidant. Each treatment was replicated five times with seven birds per replicate. The study lasted for six weeks. Parameters measured was feed intake, body weight, body ...
