R.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF FEEDING TAMARIND CRUSHED SEED ON GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF OSMANABADI GROWING KIDS.(Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2018-07-16) DONGARE, CHAITALI MADHUKAR.; Kahate, Dr. P. A.The study entitled “Effect of feeding tamarind crushed seed on growth performance of Osmanabadi growing kids” was conducted for period of 60 days. Twenty goat kids were divided into five groups on the nearness of age and weight. Four feeding treatments were studied namely T1 (Dry roughages (ad. Lib.)+ Green fodder+ Concentrate), T2 (Dry roughages (ad.lib.) + Green fodder + 80% Concentrate + 20 % tamarind crushed seed), T3 (Dry roughages (ad. Lib.) + Green fodder + 60% Concentrate + 40 % tamarind crushed seed), T4 (Dry roughages (ad.lib.) + Green fodder + 40% Concentrate + 60 % tamarind crushed seed), was fulfilled requirement of goat kids in all treatments. It was observed that, readymade concentrate containing 89.70, 19.79, 12.30, 5.25, 58.51 and 4.15 per cent of DM, CP, EE, CF, NFE and Total ash, respectively. Daily DM intake differed significantly between the treatments. The goat kids from T3 groups consumed more DM than that of T4, T2 and T1 goat kids groups. The average daily DM intake was 0.506, 0.547, 0.661 and 0.561 kg/day/kids in T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups respectively. This trend thus indicated that there was increase in the daily DM intake when a tamarind crushed seeds was incorporated as concentrate in the rations of kids. Weight gain per day was found higher in T3. All the kids exhibited satisfactory growth rate 0.044 to 0.064 kg per day and differences were significant. The per kg gain of body weight was higher in T3 treatment. It was over experimental result, the treatment T3 showed better and desirable result as compared with T1, T2 and T4 treatment. There for feeding cost was desirable (Rs.368.72) in T3 treatment. Growth rate was higher in feeding in kids feed concentrate mixture with 40 % tamarind crushed seeds than other group.ThesisItem Open Access KEEPING QUALITY OF BURFI PREPARED FROM COW MILK BLENDED WITH WOOD APPLE (Limonia acidissima) PULP.(Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2018-06-18) EKUDE, SHRIKANT SHRIRANG; Kahate, Dr. P. A.The present investigation entitled ‘‘Keeping quality of burfi prepared from cow milk blended with wood apple (Limonia acidissima) pulp” was undertaken in the Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, and Department of Plant Pathology, Dr. PDKV, Akola (M.S). The objectives of the present investigations were to study the chemical, microbiological and sensory changes during storage on room temperature and refrigerated temperature. Burfi prepared from cow milk khoa blended with 20% wood apple pulp was used to study the keeping quality of burfi. The data obtained was statistically analyzed by FRBD. The results, revealed that fat, protein, lactose, sugar, ash, solids not fat, titratable acidity and total solids content of burfi was increased from 3rd day to 15th day in both room and refrigerated condition. While, moisture content reported decrease in trend in both room and refrigerated temperature. The rate of changes was found more in room temperature conditions. Regarding microbiological changes specially yeast and moulds count as well as SPC was measured and the results reflect that both are slightly increased after 3rd day to 15 days in both condition. On the basis of burfi microbiological studies and their respects standards during storage of burfi was acceptable upto 12 days and 15 days onwards at room temperature and refrigerated temperature, respectively. Sensory evaluation studies was conducted by a panel of judges and it was found that flavour, body and texture, colour and appearance and overall acceptability scores were decreased from 3rd days onwards. But burfi was acceptable up to 9 days and 12 days at room temperature and refrigerated temperature, respectively. It was concluded that wood apple burfi can be stored and utilized upto 12 days at room temperature and 15 days and onwards under refrigeration condition on the basis of microbial count.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF FEEDING TAMARIND CRUSHED SEED ON GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF OSMANABADI GROWING KIDS.(2018-07-16) DONGARE, CHAITALI MADHUKAR.; Kahate, Dr. P.

RThe present investigation entitled “Effect of various fertilizer on yield of green azolla (Azolla pinnata) and its feeding value to Osmanabadi goat kids” was conducted under Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Science, Post Graduate Institute, Dr. PDKV, Akola for period of 60 day. Eighteen pits were divided into three group and eighteen goat kids between (3 to 6) months of age were divided into three groups on the basis of nearness to age and body weight. three treatments were studied namely T1 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit, T2 with Production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit with fresh cow dung (2 kg), T3 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit with SSP (20 gm), respectively. The azolla cultivation was done in 3m x 2m x 2m pit covered with plastic sheets at different treatment like T1 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit, T2 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit with fresh cow dung (2 kg), T3 with production of azolla on soil (15 kg) pit with SSP (20 gm). The azolla immediately after harvesting was washed with water and dried in oven for 4-5 hrs and store in plastic containers. The oven dried Azolla sample was used for yield and analysis for the estimation of chemical composition. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with six replications and three treatments. The mean yield of azolla on wet basis under various treatments i.e. T1, T2 and T3 were 4.28, 5.77 and 5.13 Kg/pit respectively and yield of azolla on dry matter basis 49, 66 and 60 Kg/pit, respectively. The DM and CP value 5.56, 5.68, 5.67 per cent and 23.82, 25.60, 24.89 per cent, respectively. The CF and TA value were 13.58, 14.96, 14.33 per cent and 13.77, 14.94, 14.52 per cent respectively. The EE and NFE were 4.02, 4.16, 4.09 per cent and 44.80, 40.34, 42.17, respectively. Daily DM intake differed significantly between the treatments. The goat kids from T2 groups consumed more DM than that of T3 and T1 goat kids groups. The average daily DM intake was 0.570, 0.620 and 0.580 kg/day/kids in T1, T2 and T3 groups respectively. This trend thus indicated that there was increase in the daily DM intake when a feeding of azolla in T2 treatment. Weight gain per day was found higher in T2 treatment. The average daily gain in body weight of experimental kids was more in T2 (0.097 kg) followed by T3 (0.087 kg) and T1 (0.082 kg). The average total gain in body weight was more in T2 (5.15 kg), followed by T3 (4.90 kg) and T1 (3.59 kg). The average total gain in body measurement (chest girth, body length and body height) of kids which received green Azolla treatments showed significant effect with concentrate mixture. From the result it may be concluded that Azolla (Azolla pinnata) of T2 (Soil + Fresh cow dung) treatment was found superior in yield, nutritional point of view and feeding of azolla to Osmanabadi goat kid diet which increased dry matter intake which is resulted into significantly more body weight gain and improving the health of the experimental goat kids.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF FEEDING JOWAR STRAW IN COMBINATION WITH SOYBEAN STRAW ON THE GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF INDIGENOUS CALVES.(Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2018-07-16) WANDHARE, VAISHALEE MITARAM; Nage, Dr. S. P.The study entitled “Effect of feeding jowar straw in combination with soybean straw on the growth performance of indigenous calves” was conducted for period of 90 days. Twenty indigenous calves were divided into four groups on the nearness of age and weight. Four feeding treatment were studied namely T1 (100% jowar straw + 3 kg berseem + concentrate), T2 (60% jowar straw + 40% soybean straw + 3 kg berseem + concentrate), T3 (40% jowar straw + 60% soybean straw + 3 kg berseem + concentrate) and T4 (100% soybean straw + 3 kg green fodder + concentrate) was fulfil requirement of indigenous calves in all treatments. It was observed that jowar straw was containing 2.80, 2.10, 54.67, 31.9, 8.23 per cent, CP, EE, NFE, CF and ash while soybean straw was containing 7.90, 2.30, 39.19, 40.56 and 10.90 per cent CP, EE, NFE, CF and ash respectively. The contents of nutrient in concentrate were 18.55, 6.44, 60.98, 6.8 and 7.23 per cent CP, EE, NFE, CF and ash. The contents of nutrients in berseem containing 16.40, 2.47, 50.44, 25.8, and 15.89 per cent CP, EE, NFE, CF and Ash. The daily DM intake was differing significantly between the treatments. The calf from T3 groups consumed more DM than that of T1, T2 and T4 calf. The average daily intake was 2.63, 2.75, 2.81 and 2.69 kg/day/calf in T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups respectively. This trend thus indicates that there was increase in the daily DM intake when soybean straw was incorporated as roughage in the rations of indigenous calf. Thus, the combination feeding jowar straw and soybean straw fulfill the balance diet. The intake trend indicated that all the animal must have received the feed in adequate quantity to fulfil their appetite. All the calves exhibited satisfactory growth rate 255 to 300 g per day and differences were significant. The per kg gain of body weight was higher in T3 treatment. It was over experimental result, the treatment T3 showed better and desirable result as compared with T1, T2 and T4 treatment. There for feeding cost was desirable. Growth rate was higher in calves feed combination of jowar and soybean straw than sole feed of jowar and soybean straw was found economical for gain in weight in indigenous calves.
