The Effect On Food Intake And Nutrient Digestibility Of Ensiling By Mixing Whole Crop Barley At The Boot Stage With Sainfoin In Lambs, Pinar Tatli, İ. Hali̇l Çerçi̇, M. Ali̇ Azman, Fuat Gürdoğan

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This study was conducted to determine of effects on food intake and nutrient digestibility of ensiling by mixing different proportions of whole crop barley at the boot stage including low dry matter and high easy dissolve carbohydrate with sainfoin including high dry matter and crude protein in lambs. Five Akkaraman male lambs averaging 42 kg and 12 months old were used. The experiment was carried out according to the 5X5 latin square design in individual boxes. The study groups were determined according to the proportions of whole crop barley and sainfoin which were used as silage materials. Group I (100 …


The Determination Of Ensiled Qualities Of Corn, Alfalfa And Sugar Beet Pulp And The Effects On Food Intake And Nutrient Digestibility When Fed To Lambs In Different Forms, Pinar Tatli, İ. Hali̇l Çerçi̇, Fuat Gürdoğan Jan 2001

The Determination Of Ensiled Qualities Of Corn, Alfalfa And Sugar Beet Pulp And The Effects On Food Intake And Nutrient Digestibility When Fed To Lambs In Different Forms, Pinar Tatli, İ. Hali̇l Çerçi̇, Fuat Gürdoğan

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This study was conducted in two stages to determine the ensiled qualities of corn, alfalfa and sugar beet pulp, and the effects on food intake and nutrient digestibility of corn and alfalfa silages used alone, together and with sugar beet pulp silage in lambs. In the first stage, corn, alfalfa and sugar beet pulp were ensiled and silos were opened after 45 days. Silage samples were taken for determination of silage quality and the samples were analysed. Dry matter (DM) levels of corn, alfalfa and sugar beet pulp silages were found to be 28.56 and 31.44, 16.74%, respectively. The pH, …

Improving Of Conservation And Feed Value Characteristics Of Citrus Pulps, İsmai̇l Fi̇lya, Ali̇ Karabulut, Taşkin Deği̇rmenci̇oğlu, Önder Canbolat, Hati̇ce Kalkan

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

This research was carried out with the aim of improving the conservation and feed value characteristics of citrus pulps. In order to ensure and improve citrus pulp conservation even for short periods (1 week), several methods intended to inhibit yeast activity were examined. Orange and grapefruit pulps were used as feed materials and three heads of merino male yearlings fitted with rumen cannula were used as animal materials. Pulps were treated with Ca(OH)_2, NaOH, urea, sorbic acid, dehydration and blanching. After these treatments, pulps were ensiled in glass jars equipped with a lid that enabled gas release only. The jars …
