Abstract

The study was conducted to evaluate the feeding value of acha hay and lablab hay based diets to Yankasa rams. Twenty Yankasa rams aged between 6 to 9 months with average live-weight of 10 to 12kg were subjected to five treatment diets each consisting of four replicates in complete randomized design (CRD). The five treatment diets are T1 (Sole acha hay), T2 (Acha hay +100g lablab hay), T3 (Acha hay +200g lablab hay), T4 (Acha hay +300g lablab hay) and T5 (Acha hay +400g lablab hay). Feed intake was significantly different (P 0.05), although it increases with supplementation level. Nutrients digestibility was not significantly different (P>0.05) but improves with level of supplement. The Acha hay and lablab hay being available during period of scarcity could improve the performances of the animals. Keywords: Acha hay, Lablab hay, Digestibility, Performance, Yankasa rams

尼日利亚阿达马瓦州洋卡萨公羊对阿查干草(Gigistaria exilis)和lablab干草(lablab purpureus)的补充利用

本试验旨在评价以阿恰干草和实验室干草为基础的饲粮对洋卡公羊的饲用价值。试验选用6 ~ 9月龄、平均活重10 ~ 12kg的羊公羊20只，采用完全随机设计(CRD)，饲喂5种处理饲粮，每组4个重复。5种处理饲粮分别为T1(鳎阿查干草)、T2(阿查干草+100g lab干草)、T3(阿查干草+200g lab干草)、T4(阿查干草+300g lab干草)和T5(阿查干草+400g lab干草)。采食量随添加水平的增加而增加，但差异显著(P 0.05)。各组营养物质消化率差异不显著(P>0.05)，但随添加水平的提高而提高。在缺草期补饲阿查干草和拉布拉罕干草可以提高动物的生产性能。关键词:阿查干草;Lablab干草;消化率
