“…The change of CP in wastelage of our study had been compared with other studies. Similar results had been reported by Daniels et al (1983) reported who ensiled maize with broiler litter for 6 weeks and found that CP was increased with increased proportion of poultry litter. The crude protein of sorghum forages ensiled with broiler litter increased with increased proportion of poultry litter (Al-Rokayan et al, 1988;Flachowsky and Henning, 1990).…”

“…Due to lack of proper disposal system, a large amount of poultry droppings are creating environmental problems (soil, air, water pollution) which ultimately cause the health hazards for human. Poultry waste can be rendered free of pathogens by ensiling (Hadjipanayiotou 1984;Daniels et al, 1983) and deep stacking (Strickler, 1977). As poultry droppings contain higher level of feed nutrients specially CP (crude protein).…”

An experiment was conducted with Napier grass (NG) treated with Poultry droppings (PD) and rice straw and ensiled with molasses to increase the nutritional and preservation quality of Napier grass. Chopped Napier grass was preserved in plastic containers under airtight condition at room temperature based on the treatments T0 (0% PD), T1 (15% PD), T2 (30% PD) and T3 (45% PD) with 5% molasses and 20% rice straw as fresh basis in each treatment to investigate physical quality, chemical composition, in vitro organic matter digestibility (IVOMD) and metabolizable energy (ME) content at 0, 30, 45, 60 and 75 days. The physical quality (color, smell, and hardness) of Napier grass mixer were improved in Poultry droppings added treatments till 75 days of ensiling. The pH value was decreased (P<0.05) with the increasing of PD and ensiling time. The dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP) and ash were increased (P<0.05) and crude fiber (CF) was decreased (P<0.05) in all the treatments (T1, T2 and T3) compared to control one T0. The CP, DM and ash were increased (P<0.05) and CF and EE were decreased (P<0.05) after ensiling. The EE content was not signified (P>0.05) between T1 and T2. The CF content was decreased (P<0.05) with the increase of Poultry droppings and ensiling time. The organic matter digestibility (OMD) and metabolizable energy (ME) content were increased (P<0.05) with the PD level and ensiling time. Considering all the physical and chemical properties, among all the treatments, 30% and 45% PD are acceptable for preparing wastelage. Thus cost effective and environment friendly feed can be prepared. Bang. J. Anim. Sci. 2019. 48 (1): 48-56

“…For example, the crude protein percentages in the ensiled rice hulls reached its maximum increase (5.19%) during the six months ensiling period in the molasses + urea treatment in both the delayed and the immediate sealed silos. Also, the increase of crude protein with the increase of the ensiling period was probably due to the decrease in bound nitrogen owing to microbial action, which confirms the results of DANIELS et al [24]. Therefore, molasses is considered to be a rich energy source for the growth of microorganisms.…”

The sequence of the effects of delayed and immediate sealed silos as well as the role of nutrient additives such as molasses and/or urea in the ensiling process of rice hulls and the subsequent nutritive value of the product has been shown. There were considerable variations in the chemical constituents during the ensiling of rice hulls among the different treatments under both delayed and immediate sealed silos. In at1 cases, when compared with the controls, the crude protein, soluble sugars, lactic acid, and fat contents were markedly increased, while the carbohydrate polymers and silica contents were significantly decreased.I t was concluded that the treatment of rice hulls + 2% molasses for two months ensiling period under anaerobic conditions can be considered as the optimum conditions for the production of good quality silage from the low grade roughages rice hulls. Changes in pH values also confirmed the improving effect of the combination of molasses addition and the immediate sealing of the silos.Acta Biotechnologica 12 (1992) 2 after filling. Four treatments were applied: (a) rice hulls alone (control), (b) rice hulls + 2% molasses, (c) rice hulls + 0.5% urea, and (d) rice hulls + 2% molasses + 0.5% urea, MaterialRice hulls were used as silage material, and ensiled after being thoroughly mixed with additives.Silos 350-ml glass tightly-cap bottles (6 x I2 cm, 0.2 mm thickness) were used as laboratory silos, Ensiling Procedure and SamplingThe quantity of rice hulls ensiled per silo was 50 g. The amount of water required to raise the rice hulls moisture to 60% W.H.C. was calculated. For the treatments requiring molasses or urea or both molasses and urea, the calculated amounts of the additives to give the required percentages were diluted with the previous calculated amounts of tap water, before being added to the rice hulls. Thoroughly mixed with the rice hulls using a wooden rod, the prepared material was tightly packed to the bottle brim as evenly as possible, and either sealing was delayed for a period of three days (Experiment 1) or sealed immediately after filling (Experiment 2). 22 silos for each treatment were prepared and examinations, made in duplicate, were carried out by taking two bottles at random at the beginning and after 3, 7, 14,21,30, 60,90, 120, 160 and 180 days, respectively, after ensiling. The bottles were kept in a closed cupboard at room temperature for 180 days. The average room temperatures ("C) were 16, 17, 18, 19, 22, Specimens were prepared for the SEM by a modified method of AKIN and AMOS 1161. The samples were observed by SEM from JEOL model JSM T-20, at accelerating voltage 20KV, magnification 35 -10.000 x . PHThe pH values were determined by using EIL pH meter model 7020 in 1 : 2.5 silage: water (C0,-free) suspension after standing for two hours (RICHARDS, [ 171).

“…Most effective and easy solution of these problems is to use the excreta for feeding animals either by drying or ensiling with poor quality forages. Poultry wastes can be rendered free of pathogens by ensiling (Hadjipanayiotou, 1982;Daniels et al,. 1983) and deep stacking (Strickler, 1977).…”

Abstract:In this experiment, wastelage was prepared by ensiling Oat forage (Avena sativa) with fresh caged layer excreta (CLE) at varying proportions to investigate the feeding values of wastelage for cattle and protect environment from poultry droppings. Oat forage was mixed with 0, 20, 40 and 60% CLE and 5% molasses in each treatment on dry matter (DM) basis and ensiled in air tight plastic container under room temperature. After 56 days, ensiled mixtures were opened. All the wastelages had desirable aroma, yellowish green color, soft texture and were mould free. The pH, DM, crude protein (CP), crude fiber (CF), ether extra ct (EE), ash, nitrogen free extract (NFE), in vitro organic matter digestibility and metabolizable energy were significantly influenced by levels of CLE. The percentages of DM, CP and Ash (37.34, 18.95 and 14.45, respectively) were highest in wastelage with 60% CLE (p<0.05) followed by 40 and 20% CLE. The pH, CF and NFE were decreased linearly (p<0.05) from 4.5 to 3.90, 19.91 to 17.81% and 52.34 to 44.71%, respectively as the level of CLE increased from 0 to 60%. In all treatments, the EE content was not significantly influenced by the different level of CLE. The in vitro organic matter digestibility and metabolizable energy also increased significantly (p<0.05) with the increase of CLE and maximum value (65.5% and 9.10 MJ/kg DM, respectively) was obtained in wastelage with 40% CLE, which was statistically identical with 60% CLE. The results suggest that ensiling Oat forage with up to 60% CLE improve the feeding value of wastelage.
