    Studies on the Effect of Different Dietary Composition of Pre - Starter Diets on Performances of Early Weaned Pigs
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Asem Ameeta Devi; Dr. J.P. Srivastava
    1.In general, type of feed and age of weaning had no significant effect on various economic traits. 2.Weight gain in piglets weaned at 8th weeks of age was significantly higher than those weaned at 5th weeks, but differences after 8th weeks of age were no significant. 3.The piglets reared on T₂ diet (100% skimmed milk powder replaced by fish meal) had slightly higher weight gain than those maintained on T, diet (with 4% skimmed milk powder). 4. The cost involved on one kg weight was significantly lower in piglets reared on diet T₂ than T 5. The farrowing interval of sows who weaned their piglets at 5th weeks had significantly lower value than those weaned at 8th weeks. 6.Diets and age of weaning had no significant influence on nutrient digestibility and feed conversion efficiency.

    Protection of Protein and Utilization of Formal dehyde Tread growund nut cake in growing Cross-Bred Calves
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1994) Kiran Shankar Dutta; J.P. Srivastava
    1.Formaldehyde (FA) 1.0 and 1.5 g/100 g feed protein, stored for 29 days can effectively be used to protect the proteins of common oil cakee such as Groundnut, Mustard and Linseed cakes, from microbial degradation in the rumen, 2. In vitro studies with formaldehyde treated Groundnut, Mustard and Linseed cakes further suggest that the reaction periods of 16 days and 4 to 8 days, respectively, were ideal for treatments levels of 1.0 and 1.5 E FA/100 E food protein because at these combinations of level and treatment, the fermentative and cellulolytic activities were not affected no revealed from the protection of Total Volatile Fatty acids. 3. Dry heat treatment in Hot Air Oven at 150°C for 2 hours and 10 minutes roasting are appreciably effective in protecting the proteins of oil cakes, such so, Groundnut, Mustard and Linseed cakes from microbial degradation in the rumon Emphasis should be given upon 10 minutes roasting or roasting for somewhat longer duration as it does not affect the nutrient content, in general, of oil cakes unlike the heat

    Effects of Feeding Marua (Eleusine Coracana) As An Energy Source In Large White Yorkshire Pig Ration
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1993) Uttam Kumar Hati; A.P.Sinha
    The present studies indicate that maruhs feeding exhibited better nutrient utilization, growth, feed-officiency ration, positive retention of N, Ca and P with lowest cost per kg live weight as well as per kg mest production without having any abnormality in the animal. Thus it can be concluded that maruha can be economically used as an energy source to a maxi mum of 60 % level of swine rations by replacement of 100 % maize (v/v) in practical standard rations for growing pige without exhibiting any adverse effect.
