:The Gulabjamun were prepared from Khoa of buffalo milk blended with wheat bran in different proportion such as (T 1 ) 0.2 per cent wheat bran by weight of milk, (T 2 ) 0.4 per cent wheat bran by weight of milk, (T 3 ) 0.6 per cent wheat bran by weight of milk and compared with control T 0 (without wheat bran) for its acceptability. The average chemical composition of control Gulabjamun (T 0 ) and Gulabjamun blended with wheat bran 0.2 per cent (T 1 ), 0.4 per cent (T 2 ), 0.6 per cent (T 3
Twenty four Osmanabadi weaned male kids with average live weight of 10.80 kg were divided into four equal groups and fed with WWNSC and salt sprinkled neem leaves for 182 days to study the effect on growth performance and nutrient digestibility. The daily gain in body weight was significantly (Pis less than 0.05) higher in kids fed with salt sprinkled neem leaves individually than kids fed with WWNSC individually and in combination with salt sprinkled neem leaves. The DM, DCP and TDN intake in terms of per cent live body weight was significantly (Pis less than 0.05) higher in kids fed with salt sprinkled neem leaves individually than kids fed with WWNSC individually. Moreover, digestibility (%) of DM, CF and NFE was significantly (P is less than 0.05) higher in kids fed with salt sprinkled neem leaves individually over kids fed with WWNSC individually except CP which was comparable in all treatments groups.
Twenty four Osmanabadi weaned male kids with average live weight of 10.80 kg (5-6 months old) were divided into four equal groups in a Randomized Block Design and fed with water washed neem (Azadirachta indica) seed cake (WWNSC) and salt (2%) sprinkled neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves for 182 days to study the effect on blood parameters, feed conversion efficiency and economics of feeding. The kids (T 0) were fed with control diet without WWNSC and salt sprinkled neem leaves, (T 1) WWNSC (15% DCP) individually, (T 2) salt sprinkled neem leaves individually (15% DCP), (T 3) WWNSC (15% DCP) in combination with salt sprinkled neem leaves (15% DCP) as a protein source along with concentrate mixture, green maize and ad libitum sorghum kadbi. The concentration of blood parameter (Blood glucose, total serum protein and heamoglobin) did not differ significantly (P<0.01) among all treatments groups. However, its concentrations increased throughout experimental period in all treatments group including control. While, Blood urea nitrogen concentration was significantly (P<0.05) higher in group fed with salt sprinkled neem leaves than group fed with WWNSC individually and in combination with salt sprinkled neem leaves while comparable with control groups. The feed conversion efficiency (FCE) for dry matter, DCP and TDN was comparatively higher in groups fed with salt sprinkled neem leaves individually than groups fed with WWNSC individually and in combination with salt sprinkled neem leave when compare with control groups. The feeding cost per kg live weight gain was comparatively less (Rs. 150.73) in group fed with salt sprinkled neem leaves individually than groups fed with control diet (Rs. 164.08) and group fed with WWNSC individually (Rs. 183.10) while comparable to groups fed with WWNSC and salt sprinkled neem leaves (Rs. 157.55) in combination. It concluded that, feeding of salt sprinkled neem leaves individually (15% DCP) was comparatively more economical than rest of all treatments groups without adverse effect on blood parameter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
