Abstract:
This study was conducted to evaluate chemical composition and phytochemicals present in mango leaf and yellow mustard seed. Yellow mustard seed and mango leaves were collected for estimation of proximate analysis and qualitative presence of phytochemicals. Results indicated that mustard seed contains higher content of crude protein, ether extract and glucosinolate content compared to mango leaf while total phenol content was higher in mango leaf. As both yellow mustard seed and mango leaves were found nutrient-rich they can be used in animal feeding if antinutritional content is reduced.
