| 1 | Growth performance and nutrient digestibility of West African Dwarf goats fed graded levels of Moringa oleifera leaf meal |
A sixty one days feeding trial was conducted to determine the total feed intake, live weight gain and digestibility coefficients of WAD goats (bucks) fed basal diet of Panicum maximum (guinea grass) and concentrate diet containing Moringa oleifera leaf meal (MOL) at 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% levels. The animals were allocated to four dietary treatments of three goats per treatment in a completely randomized design experiment. Feed intake, live weight gain and digestibility coefficients were determined. The results showed that the WAD goats fed the concentrate diet with 15% level of inclusion of Moringa oleifera leaf meal had significantly higher (P<0.05) rate of growth and digestibility coefficients than those on the 5% and 10% inclusion levels . | G.O.Tona, D.O.Ogunbosoye and B.A. Bakare | 3 | Journal | 2014-02-28 | http://www.ijcmas.com | |
