The study involved 28 Magra lambs aged 3-4 months, placed within an extensive system. These lambs were randomly allocated into 04 experimental groups, each consisting of 7 lambs, using a randomized block design (RBD). In an extensive management system, Amla (Emblica officinalis) whole fruit powder and Giloy (Tinospora cordifolia) stem powder, herbal feed additives, were provided at a dosage of 1.5 gram per kilogram body weight with concentrate for T1 and T2 groups, respectively. This supplementation was excluded for the control group, and a different approach was followed for T3. T3 group received a combined supplement of Amla whole fruit powder and Giloy stem powder at a concentration of 0.75 gram per kilogram body weight, administered alongside concentrate as oral/feed. By the conclusion of the experiment, notable alterations were observed in measurements such as abdominal girth, chest/heart girth, body height, and body length; however, these changes remained within the standard range of morphometric traits. At the conclusion of the experiment, it seems that integrating 1.5 gram per kilogram body weight of giloy stem powder and amla powder can be considered a viable component of the strategy, as it proves effective in enhancing morphometric traits in lambs within the extensive management system of the arid zone of Rajasthan.","PeriodicalId":505151,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Current Research International","volume":"289 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140480816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Effect of Bypass Fat and Bypass Protein Supplementation During Transition Period on Reproductive Performance of Assam Hill Goat","authors":"Akshay Krishnamurti Hegde, Keshav, Pranjal Borah","doi":"10.9734/acri/2024/v24i1626","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.9734/acri/2024/v24i1626","url":null,"abstract":"The present study was undertaken to evaluate the response of Assam Hill Goat (AHG) in terms of their productive and reproductive performances upon bypass fat and bypass protein supplementation during the transition period. Twenty-four AHG in transition period (21day prepartum to 21day post-partum) were divided into two equal groups (n=12) viz. T-0 and T-1; where Group T-1 was supplemented with 10 g of bypass fat and 5 g of bypass protein along with their normal diet for a period of 42 days. Group T-0 acted as control and was provided with a normal diet without any supplementation. Blood samples were collected on day -21, -14, -7, 0 (day of kidding), +7, +14 and +21 of the transition period for haemato-biochemical studies. Birth weight, milk yield and time taken for expulsion of foetus and foetal membrane and incidences of peri-partum diseases were recorded. The results indicated that, the supplementation had no significant effect on haematological parameters (TLC, Neutrophil count and Hb), serum Ca, P, glucose, globulin and GGT activity. Serum non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) levels were significantly (p<0.05) lower in supplemented groups on the day of kidding (0.75±0.09 mmol/L) and day 21 of postpartum (0.38±0.04 mmol/L). Significantly (p<0.05) higher mean values of total protein on day -14, -7, 0, 7, 14 and 21 (6.96±0.21, 6.99±0.25, 7.02±0.26, 7.24±0.28, 7.03±0.12 and 6.95±0.15 g/dL) and serum albumin values on day -14, 7 and 21 (4.46±0.23, 4.69±0.23 and 4.44±0.27 g/dL) were recorded in T-1 group. Significantly (p<0.05) lower mean values of BUN were recorded in T-1 group on day 0, 7 and 21 (30.25±1.74, 35.62±1.58 and 42.08±1.45 mg/dL). The supplemented (T–1) group recorded significantly higher milk yield (303.5±21.16, 306.25±19.67 and 310.75±23.93 ml) on day 14, 21 and 28 after kidding and there was a significant (p<0.05) reduction in time taken for the expulsion of foetus (89.75±11.84 mins) and foetal membranes (90.50±5.86 mins). The supplementation of bypass fat (10g/day) and bypass protein (5 g/day) during the transition period reduce the effect of negative energy balance and facilitate quicker recovery from negative energy balance along with improvement in milk yield and reduce time taken for expulsion of foetus and foetal membrane.","PeriodicalId":505151,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Current Research International","volume":"52 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140492693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

India is the second-largest producer and largest consumer of sugar in the world. Therefore, the study was conducted to assess the position of Indian sugar in the international market. The study was based on Time series data of years 1999-2018. To assess the trend, trend analysis was done and, for appraising the competitiveness, export performance ratio and nominal protection coefficient was computed. The cubic model was found best fit for all the particulars considered in the models. Results revealed that production, import quantity and value of sugar had increasing trend while export quantity, value, unit price of export and import of sugar exhibited fluctuating trend. The trade of Indian sugar was found inconsistent in the decadal analysis but overall had a relative advantage in the international market with an EPR vale of 1.11. The higher NPC value of 1.02 pointed out a matter of concern as the Indian sugar was non-competitive in the international market.","PeriodicalId":505151,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Current Research International","volume":"42 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139603596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An incomplete Gamma distribution model was applied to the climatological precipitation data (mm); atmospheric pressure (mb); incidence of solar radiation (kJ/m²); air temperature and dew (ºC); relative humidity (%); wind intensity (m/s) with direction and maximum gust. Data normalization techniques and spatial similarity identified different patterns and trends of precipitation in the region, with significant seasonality, especially in terms of rainfall. The highest precipitation rates occurred in the N-NW axis, inside the northern Amazonian area, while the lowest values were observed in the southern equatorial zone, on the limits of the Pará State with the Cerrado Biome. Four zones and one climate range were established: southern, central, northern west and northern east zones and extreme north area, all with significant similarity in precipitation and humidity. A trend was observed in the number of days with precipitation between 25 and 50% in the southern and central zones, and an increase in precipitation of 50 to 75% for the northern zone. The wind distribution model showed a tendency towards the presence of isotropic climate phenomena, presenting the same properties or characteristics. The results obtained are relevant to support research aimed at understanding global warming and its consequences, in addition to contributing to forest management programs, and establishing more effective protocols for cultivation in agricultural areas in the Amazon.","PeriodicalId":505151,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Current Research International","volume":"29 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139613304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urbanization was an important driving force in migration and commuting, because urban areas offer many economic opportunities to rural people through better jobs, new skills and cultural changes. The specific objective formulated for the study are to find out the various measures of urbanisation in the study area and to develop a structural equation model for depicting the interrelationship between these factors of urbanisation. A multistage random sampling technique was adopted. The tools of analysis for the study are Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) using Structural Equation Model (SEM). The results revealed that the variables in the study had effect on urbanisation and the recommended fitness models and reliability test were achieved the required level for the study.
