Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIn vitro Rumen Fermentability of the Pelleted Feed Containing Water Spinach (Ipomoea aquatica)Himmatul Hasanah, Eko Pangestu, Ali Agus, Joelal AchmadiAn in vitro technique based on two stages of batch culture was used to clarify fermentability and digestibility of pellet feed containing water spinach (Ipomoea aquatica). The portion of Pennisetum purpureum in the pellet feed was substituted with Ipomoea aquatica at respective levels of 0% (T1), 20% (T2), 40% (T3) and 60% (T4). The treatments were allocated in a completely … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2020 · 7,562 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of Tropical Grasses on Mine Revegetation for Herbage Supply to Bali Cattle in Sorowako, South Sulawesi, IndonesiaSyamsuddin Hasan, Asmuddin Natsir, Ambo Ako et al.The aim of this study was to evaluate forage quality and absorption of heavy metals in grasses of grazing lands in mine revegetation area. Grazing land was dominated by Brachiaria decumbens (BD), which occupied about 87% in the pasture’ syielding ability of 14.8 Mg DM/ha/year, followed by Centrocema pubescens (CP), Calopogonium mucunoides (CM) and Imperata cylindrica (IC) at 6, 4 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 18 May 2016 · 7,481 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Inclusion of Albizia saman Pods in the Diet on the Performances of Dairy CowsMin Aung, Yin Yin Kyawt, Moe Thida Htun et al.Ruminants can achieve high productivity when the diet includes concentrates; however these are often expensive due to competition with humans and mono-gastric animals. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of partial inclusion of Albizia saman pods (ASP) in a Commercial Concentrate (CC) on the performances of dairy cows. Twelve cross-bred Holstein Friesian cows (472±13 kg) in the 12th … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2015 · 7,587 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Dietary Curcumin on Rumen Fermentation, Macronutrient Digestion and Nitrogen Balance in Beef CattleT. Vorlaphim, M. Phonvisay, J. Khotsakdee et al.Abstract: Problem statement: Previous studies have shown that curcumin has antibacterial activity. It was hypothesized that the feeding of curcumin to ruminants may disturb rumen function and affect macronutrient digestibility and nitrogen utilization. Approach: In an experiment with Latin-square design, beef cattle were fed rations consisting of urea-treated rice straw and concentrates without or with 0.1 or 0.2% added curcumin. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Jul 2011 · 9,157 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInteractive Effects of the Feeding of Leucaena Leaves and Curcumin on Macronutrient Digestion and Nitrogen Balance in Beef CattleC. Yuangklang, J. Khotsakdee, K. Vasupen et al.Abstract: Problem statement: The feeding of curcumin to beef cattle has been shown to increase nitrogen retention and decrease the apparent digestibility of acid detergent fiber in beef cattle. It was suggested that there could be interactions between the effects of curcumin and the composition of the ration. Approach: In this study with beef cattle, concentrates without or with curcumin … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 8,071 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Palm Kernel Cake Based Biosupplement Biscuits on Nutrient Utilization, Growth Performance, and Metabolic Responses in Male Ettawah GoatsTintin Rostini, Suharlina, Achmad Jaelani et al.Palm Kernel Cake (PKC), a major by-product of the palm oil industry, has considerable potential as an alternative feed ingredient for ruminants because of its wide availability, moderate protein content, and economic value. However, its utilization is often constrained by high fiber and lignocellulosic components that may limit nutrient digestibility. This study evaluated the effects of PKC-based biosupplement biscuits as … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 22 Oct 2026 · 390 accessesView PDF Cite
