The aim of this study was to determine whether the inclusion 40% common vetch (CV) hay as a feed ingredient in place alfalfa (AH) would improve performance and ruminal fermentation microbiota fattening lambs. Twenty lambs were equally divided into two groups: control group (fed AH with 20% rice straw) CV straw). Concerning quality, had greater vitro digestibility dry matter neutral detergent fiber (
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects three feeding systems, i.e., indoor (CON), with 4-h daily access grazing artificial pasture (ITGP), and 8-h (IEGP), on plasma antioxidant immunological capacity, slaughter characteristics, meat quality economic efficiency Huang-huai lambs.Thirty-three healthy rams similar body weight (approximately 5 mo age, 28.96±1.01 kg) were assigned equally experimental groups. When finished fattening, six lambs from each group collect blood samples for...
Diversifying feed with annual legumes could help to reduce reliance on imported sources of alfalfa hay, ensuring a consistent supply forage throughout year, and potentially decreasing the cost raising ruminants. This study evaluated varietal variability in hay yield, chemical composition, carbohydrate protein fractions, vitro digestibility five common vetch varieties used this experiment during full-flowering period Jianghuai region 2022 crop season. Results showed that improved (Lanjian No....
