Abstract:
The study entitled “Effect of Feeding of Bamboo (Dendrocalamus strictus) Leaves on Growth Performance of Osmanabadi Goats” was conducted for period of 84 days. Twelve goats were divided into four groups on the nearness of age and weight. Four feeding treatments were studied namely T1- Control (Dry roughages ad lib. + 100% green hybrid napier), T2- Dry roughages ad lib. + green fodder (80% hybrid napier + 20% bamboo leaves), T3- Dry roughages ad lib. + green fodder (60% hybrid napier + 40% bamboo leaves), T4- Dry roughages ad lib. + green fodder (40% hybrid napier + 60% bamboo leaves) was fulfil the requirement of goats in all treatments.
The study entitled “Effect of Feeding of Bamboo (Dendrocalamus strictus) Leaves on Growth Performance of Osmanabadi Goats” was conducted for period of 84 days. Twelve goats were divided into four groups on the nearness of age and weight. Four feeding treatments were studied namely T1- Control (Dry roughages ad lib. + 100% green hybrid napier), T2- Dry roughages ad lib. + green fodder (80% hybrid napier + 20% bamboo leaves), T3- Dry roughages ad lib. + green fodder (60% hybrid napier + 40% bamboo leaves), T4- Dry roughages ad lib. + green fodder (40% hybrid napier + 60% bamboo leaves) was fulfil the requirement of goats in all treatments.
Daily DM intake differed significantly between the treatments. The average daily intake was 891.9, 902.55, 964.37 and 1023.8 g/day/goat in T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups respectively but gradual increase in DMI was observed 4.11, 4.15, 4.33 and 4.43 kg/day/100kg BW in T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups respectively. This trend thus indicated that there was increase in the daily DM intake when bamboo leaves was incorporated as feed in the rations of goats.
All the goats exhibited satisfactory growth rate 26.80 to 37.50 g per day and differences were significant. Per kg gain of body weight was higher in group (T4) 60% bamboo leaves fed.
In experimental result, the treatment (T4) 60% bamboo leaves fed showed better and desirable result as compared with T1, T2 and T3 treatment.
