“…Economically, it would provide the poorer strata of the population with cheap access to animal proteins. In fact, previous research reveals that the utilization of agricultural by product in rabbit diet lead to a reduction in production cost without impairing growth performances [3,6]. Furthermore, as reported by Hamed et al [7] the used of pea offal and hay in rabbit diet reduce the production cost of the ration and improve the feed conversion ratio.…”

Aims:The aim of the study was to increase rabbit production by evaluating the effects of bean offal on the growth performance of the New Zealand rabbits breed and to reduce the economic costs of feed. Study Design: Study was conducted in a completely randomized design. Methodology: For this purpose, forty-eight (48) rabbits of 50 days old were divided into four equal groups each containing 12 rabbits and into sub-groups of 3 rabbits per cage, depending on the rate of incorporation of bean offal (0, 15, 22.5, and 30% respectively for T0, T15, T22.5 and T30) in a completely randomized design. The diets were iso caloric and iso nitrogenous. Results:The results obtained showed that there was no significance (p> 0.05) different among treatment means in final live weight, weekly live weight and feed conversion ratio (FCR), however, Short Communication

Agro-industrial byproducts in rabbit food: Case of the complex of detoxified apricot kernel cake and dehydrated tomato pulp

et al. 2021

Background and Aim: The use of agro-industrial byproducts as an unconventional source of raw materials for monogastric feed is one possible solution. This study aimed to determine the effects of incorporating detoxified apricot kernel meal (DAKM) as a substitute for soybean meal and dehydrated tomato pulp (DTP) as a substitute for alfalfa hay on the local rabbit fattening. Materials and Methods: A total of 120 white strain rabbits, weaned at 33 days, were randomly assigned to four groups of 30. The rabbits in each group were ringed, placed in cages at 6 rabbits/cage, and fed according to DAKM and DTP incorporation rates (0%, 30%, 40%, and 60%). Results: The weights at 77 days were improved (p<0.05) with unchanged mean daily intakes. The vast majority of slaughter parameters and carcass characteristics improved. The chemical composition of the meat constituents improved significantly, with a 60% increase in the protein content of the batch (26.55% vs. 28.53%), 38% reduction in the total feed cost, and 40 DA saved for each kilogram of feed consumed per rabbit. The relative economic efficiency improved in proportion to the substitution rates of soybean meal by DAKM and alfalfa hay by DTP. Conclusion: Substituting DAKM and DTP, as byproducts of agro-industrial processing, for up to 60% induced satisfactory results in rabbit fattening. Therefore, it would be more insightful to increase the incorporation rates to determine the optimal threshold.

L’objectif de cet essai a été d’analyser l’intérêt d’utiliser des aliments disponibles localement en alimentation cunicole, comme le foin de luzerne et la paille de blé, pour remplacer la luzerne déshydratée importée en Algérie. Deux aliments ont été formulés avec, comme principale source de fibres, du foin de luzerne seul pour l’un (F, 40,1 %), combiné avec de la paille de blé pour l’autre (F+P, 17 % foin + 14 % paille). Au sevrage (35 jours), 154 lapins de la souche synthétique ITELV 2006 ont été répartis en trois groupes de poids vifs identiques et logés dans des cages collectives (2–4 lapins/cage) jusqu’à l’âge d’abattage (84 j). Ils ont reçu ad libitum l’un des deux régimes expérimentaux (F ou F+P) ou un régime commercial utilisé comme témoin (Tém). La viabilité des lapins F a été meilleure (90 % ; + 22 points de pourcentage) que celle des lapins Tém (68 %) (p = 0,025) et la viabilité des lapins F+P a été intermédiaire (79,6 % ; + 12 points de pourcentage). Le gain de poids et la consommation d’aliment ont été de 14 % et 30 % plus élevés (p < 0,001) respectivement avec F qu’avec Tém (33,0 vs 29,0 g/j et 92,8 vs 71,4 g/j). La croissance et l’ingestion des lapins F+P ont été intermédiaires (29,9 g/j et 79,5 g/j). Le rendement en carcasse froide et le score d’adiposité de la carcasse ont été les plus élevés (p < 0,05) avec F, suivi de Tém, puis de F+P (respectivement 67,5%, 66,4 %, 65,5 % et 3,85, 3,45, 3,30). L’efficacité économique a été de 23 % et 44 % supérieure lorsque les lapins étaient nourris respectivement avec les régimes F et F+P.
