“…The nutrient composition of mango seed kernel on dry matter basis was evaluated by 6.16% crude protein, 13.63% ether extract, 2.23% ash, and 73.35% nitrogenfree extract (Farinu et al 1999); however, El-Alaily et al (1996) noted that the gross energy is 4.7 Kcal/g. On the other hand, Farag (2001) noted that the air-dry mango seed kernels contained CP 70 g/kg, EE 128 g/kg, and tannins 67 g/kg.…”

Background: The present work aimed to investigate the impact of partial replacement yellow corn by mango seed kernels (MSK) at different levels of (0, 25, and 50%) on feed and water consumption, water metabolism, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen balance, and rumen fluid parameters. Methods: Twelve mature male Rahmani sheep of about 58.39 ± 1.22 kg live body weight on average were used to investigate the influence of replacing yellow corn contents (45% in the control ration) by mango seed kernels (MSK) at different levels (0, 25, and 50%) that equal (0, 11.25, and 22.5% of total ration contents) on feed and water intakes, water metabolism, nutrient digestibility coefficients, nitrogen utilization, and some rumen fluid parameters. The animals were randomly assigned to three experimental groups (four animals in each treatment). Sheep fed rations are composed of 50% concentrate feed mixture (CFM) and 50% peanut vein hay (PVH) at portion 3% dry matter (DM) of live body weight (LBW). Results: The results showed that values of crude protein (CP), crude fiber (CF), and nitrogen-free extract (NFE) of MSK and yellow corn were similar. Meanwhile, MSK has superior ether extract content compared to yellow corn; meanwhile, ash content of yellow corn was lower than ash content of MSK. All tested CFM were isonitrogenous (16.17% CP), but it differs in their contents of gross and digestible energy. On the other hand, all experimental total mixed rations (TMR) were isonitrogenous (14.52% CP) and isocaloric (4177 kcal/kg DM in average). Dietary treatments significantly (P < 0.05) decreased total dry matter intake (DMI) and crude protein intake (CPI) that expressed as (g/h/day, g/kgW 0.75 , and kg/100 kg LBW) or gross energy intake (GEI) and digestible energy intake (DEI) that expressed as (Mcal/h/day, kcal/kgW 0.75 , and Mcal/100 kg LBW). Inclusion MSK in sheep ration insignificantly (P > 0.05) increased drinking water by 20% and 6.89% for experimental groups fed TMR 2 and TMR 3 , respectively, compared to the control one (TMR 1). Incorporation MSK in the rations significantly (P < 0.05) increased insensible losses of water. Dietary treatments significantly (P < 0.05) increased nutrient digestibility coefficients of DM, organic matter (OM), CP, CF, and NFE. Meanwhile, it significantly (P < 0.05) decreased EE digestibility. On the other hand, both values of total digestible nutrient (TDN) and digestible crude protein (DCP) were significantly (P < 0.005) improved. Nitrogen retention (NR) (NR % of nitrogen intake (NI) and NR % of digested nitrogen (DN)) values were significantly (P < 0.05) increased with increasing level of MSK in the sheep ration. Inclusion MSK significantly (P < 0.05) increased ruminal pH; however, it had no significant (P > 0.05) on both ammonia nitrogen (NH 3-N) and total volatile fatty acid (TFVA) concentrations. Sampling time at 3 h post feeding significantly (P < 0.05) decreased ruminal pH in comparison with before and 6 h post feeding; meanwhile, sampling time had no significant effect (P > 0.05) on NH 3-N conc...

“…If there is a shortage of feed both in an amount and type on time, it is not possible to run poultry farming at all. In modern poultry farming feed plays a crucial role and determines the fate of the farm as core entity (El-Alaily et al, 1976).…”

“…To solve the above feed crisis and pollution problem mango seed kernel is the best fit and can avail the crisis between both needs. The potential of this Mango seed kernel as animal feed especially as chicken feed have been elaborated on and discussed in detail so that it can help solve the scarcity created between animal and man in general and the poultry sector in particular (El-Alaily et al, 1976;Dhingra and Kapoor, 1985;Das et al, 1988). Mango seed kernel has been studied and found that it has a high amount of energy, and fat minerals but a lesser percent of crude protein and can easily be processed and used for poultry feed (Patel et al, 1971;El Alaily et al, 1976).…”

“…Mango seed kernel also contains antioxidant vitamins which are used as helminthes in animal health and this suggests that mango seed kernel can be used as an alternative source of vitamins in chicken farming (El Alaily et al, 1976). Although Mango seed kernel is selected and used as chicken feed having that huge potential in it, it also contains ant nutrients such as tannins, trypsin inhibitors which make it unsafe and requires further processing and removing of them (Aregheore, 1992).…”

An investigation was undertaken to study the effects of feeding boiled mango seed kernel (BMSK) on the growth performance and feed utilization parameters of Hubbard broiler chicks with the objective of recommending the optimum level of mango seed kernel inclusion in broiler feed. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design with four treatments, each replicated three times with 13 birds each. One-hundred fifty-six-day-old chicks with uniform body weight (BW) were used and were distributed randomly to the four diets. The four treatment diets were control (T1) (100% maize + 0% BMSK), T2 (95% maize + 5% BMSK), T3 (90% maize + 10% BMSK) and T4 (85% maize + 15% BMSK). All the experimental chickens were weighted initially (initial BW) and lasted for 49 days during which growth performance traits were recorded. After 49 days, two birds from each replication were randomly selected and slaughtered to evaluate the effect of BMSK on the final body weight of the chicks. The results on average daily feed intake per bird for T1 and T2 were not significantly different, i.e., 71.4 and 70.8 g (P>0.05) but it was significantly higher than that of T3 and T4 which was 68.13 and 68.23 g. At the end of 7 weeks, the final BW of chicks fed on T1 and T2 were 2657 and 2644, not significantly different, but were significantly higher than that of T3 and T4 which were 2610 and 2603 g per bird, respectively. The Average daily BW gain (ADG) for the respective T1 and T2 was 53.4, 53.2 g and was significantly (P<0.05) higher than that of T3 and T4 which were 52.44 and 52.31 g per bird. The feed conversion ratio (g feed/g gain) for T1 and T2 was 1.36, 1.36 and was significantly higher than that of T3 and T4 which were 1.33 and 1.33 g per bird, respectively. Inclusion of mango seed kernel up to 15% in broiler nutrition has no detrimental effect, profitable and can be best alternative feed sources in broiler feed if treated well by using the best technical methods of anti-nutritional factors like boiling.

The kernels of 13 different mango varieties were examined. The kernels contained, depending on variety, from 6.8 to 12.6 % fat, 5.2 to 6.3 % protein (N x 6.25) and 1.4 to 2.0% ash on a moisture-free basis. The fat was yellow-coloured and melted at 32.5-35.8"C. Stearic and oleic acids constitute about 85% of the total fatty acids.The ratio of stearic:oleic acids varied according to variety from 0.56 to 0.97. The remaining fatty acids are, in decreasing order, palmitic, linoleic, arachidic and linolenic acids. Oleic and linoleic acids represented about 88 and lo%, respectively, of the fatty acids incorporated at the sn-2-position of the triglycerides.
