    NUTRITIONAL EVALUATION OF JACKFRUIT (ARTOCARPUS HETEROPHYLLUS) WASTE IN SHEEP
    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY, ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCES UNIVERSITY, BIDAR- 585 401, 2019-06-01) CHAITRA Y.; V.NAGABHUSHANA
    conducted to study the potential nutritional value and its feeding value in growing sheep. Jackfruit waste (JFW), maize hay (MH), Concentrate feed mixture (CFM) and their various dietary combinations were studied by In vitro gas production technique. The RIVGP24 (ml/200mg DM), ME (MJ/kg),IVDOM (%), a (ml/200mg DM), D (ml/200mg DM), K (h-1), b (ml/200mg DM) and t1/2(h) value for JFW was 66.87, 11.32, 75.10, 5.36, 76.34, 0.08, 8.48 and 70.98 respectively. Among various dietary combination of JFW with CFM, JC50:50 dietary combination was showing significantly (P<0.01) higher RIVGP24 (71.71), ME (12.45), IVDOM (79.67), D (86.52), t1/2 (8.63). The ‘K’ value was significantly (P<0.01) higher for JC70:30 (0.13) and ‘b’ value for JC40:60 (86.83) combination. Similarly, significantly (P<0.01) higher values were obtained for RIVGP24, ME, IVDOM for JM90:10 (66.06, 11.21, 74.37) dietary combination. At dietary combination of JM30:70, significantly higher values were observed for ‘D’ (77.30) and ‘b’ (82.65). The ‘k’ and ‘t1/2’ values were significantly (P<0.01) higher in JM70:30 (0.11) and JM20:80 (8.54), respectively. A feeding trial of ten weeks duration was carried out on 14 sheep of 4-6 months old having an initial body weight of 13.8kg allotted to two groups of 7 animals of which control group (T1) of animals were fed with a basal diet of maize hay with supplemental CFM and for the treatment group (T2), 50 per cent of maize hay was replaced by JFW. The total DMI (g/d) was significantly (P<0.05) higher (678.99) in JFW (T2) as compared to control group (T1) of animals (577.40). There was a significantly (P<0.05) linear increase in the consumption of MH and JFW and total dry matter intake across the experimental period of 10 weeks. Significantly higher (P<0.01/0.05) OM, EE, NFE, NDF, ADF and HC intake was observed in T2 group as compared to control group of animals. The apparent digestibility of CF was unaffected by JFW supplementation. Whereas DM, OM, CP, EE, NFE and ADF digestibility were significantly (P<0.05) lower in test diet as compared to control diet. Further, NDF digestibility were significantly (P<0.05) higher in JFW fed animals (62.48%) as compared to control diet (54.12%).The DCP (<0.01), TDN, DOMD, ME and DCPI (<0.05) differ significantly higher at T1 as compared to T2. However, there was significantly (P<0.05) higher TDNI and MEI in T2 as compared to T1 groups. The average weekly body weight and average daily gain were comparable (P>0.05) among treatment groups. All the animals in the trial were in positive nitrogen balance. It was concluded that JFW could be used conveniently as a roughage source which partially or completely be replaced the traditional crop residue without affecting the growth and digestibility of nutrients in sheep.

    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY, ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCES UNIVERSITY, BIDAR, 2019-06) CHAITRA Y.; V.NAGABHUSHANA
    An In vitro and In vivo evaluation of Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) wastes was conducted to study the potential nutritional value and its feeding value in growing sheep. Jackfruit waste (JFW), maize hay (MH), Concentrate feed mixture (CFM) and their various dietary combinations were studied by In vitro gas production technique. The RIVGP24 (ml/200mg DM), ME (MJ/kg),IVDOM (%), a (ml/200mg DM), D (ml/200mg DM), K (h-1), b (ml/200mg DM) and t1/2(h) value for JFW was 66.87, 11.32, 75.10, 5.36, 76.34, 0.08, 8.48 and 70.98 respectively. Among various dietary combination of JFW with CFM, JC50:50 dietary combination was showing significantly (P0.05) among treatment groups.
