| Abstract |
This experiment was conducted to assess the effect of Chaya (Cnido5co/us cicon/.rl.fo//'us) leaf pellet
(CHYP) on rumen fermentation, nutrients digestibility and microbial protein synthesis in
growing crossbred bulls. Four animals, with an average liveweight of 160± 10 kg were randomly
arranged in a 4 x 4 Latin square design. There were four treatments: 0, 4, 6 and 8% CHYP sllpplementation
of DMI. The study findings showed that increasing supplementation level of CHYP
linearly enhanced to<0.05) DM, OM, and CP digestibilities. Rumen characteristics, namely
NH3-N concentration and bacterial population wel'e increased to < 0.05) while, protozoal and
fungal population remained unchanged, as level of CHYP supplementation increased. Total
rumen volatile fatty acids IVFA) and propionic acid (C3) were enhanced to < 0.05). Furthermore,
N utilisation especially N absorption, N retention and efficiency of microbial nitrogen synthesis
(EMNS) were significantly improved by increasing level of CHYP supplementation. Hence, CHYP
supplementation is highly promising for ruminant feeding. |
