| dc.description.abstract | The study was carried out in Ramnad White Sheep maintained at TANUVAS – Regional Research and Educational Centre, Pudukkottai from 3 months age group. Twelve numbers of 3 months age group of Ramnad White sheep were randomized into three treatment group of 4 each T1 (control), T2 (100 gm fresh Azolla/animal /day), T3 (200 g fresh Azolla/animal /day). Azolla cultivated in this centre, was supplemented to ramnad white sheep on fresh matter basis along with Concentrate feed. The values observed for total gain in body weight per kid were 3.05, 3.15, 3.66 in treatments T1, T2, T3 respectively. Also weekly gains in body weight per kid were 0.254, 0.262, 0.305 in treatment T1, T2, T3 respectively. The corresponding values for average daily gain were 0.033, 0.035, 0.040 kg in treatment T1, T2, T3 respectively. The body weight gain was significantly (p<0.05) higher in sheep kids of treatment group T3, followed by T2, T1 Higher total gain was noticed in T3. Indicated that supplementation of green Azolla increased the growth rate of experimental sheep kids. | |
