Performance of Fattening Buffalo Calves Fed Different Levels of Dried Poultry Manure

“…No significant differences were observed among different treatments in total protein, albumin and creatinine in the blood serum (Table,5). These results are similar to those obtained by Cross et al (1978) and Khattab et al (1982Khattab et al ( & 1995. Globulin concentration indicated that the experimental animals developed a kind of immunological status to infection with increasing levels of DPM, since globulin values expressed the immunity status of the animal (Kitchennham et al, 1975).…”

Increasing Small Ruminant Productivity in Semi-arid Areas

“…75 • Sugarcane molasses at 300 g/h/d was recommended as a good nutrient in fattening rations, while ensiled or dry dairy cattle manure and dry poultry litter were used safely in rations at up to 20% of the DM (EI-Serafy et al 1980;El-Ashry et al 1985;Khattab et al 1982). The proper roughage to concentrate ratio (R: C) for growing lambs to 12 months was found to be 60 : 40 on a dry matter (DM) basis, and ewe-lambs could be reared successfully on green forages.…”
