dc.description.abstract | A study was conducted to quantify the nutrients in whole crop and different parts of hydroponic maize fodder. Fodder maize was cultivated and harvested in eight days in the TANUVAS Hydroponic greenhouse production plant. Samples of whole crop, leaf and stem and root portions were collected and analysed for proximate composition. The leaf and stem component had higher crude protein and crude fibre contents whereas in roots, crude fat and nitrogen free extract contents were higher. Hydroponic maize fodder whole crop contained high protein, fat and soluble carbohydrates but low fibre than the traditionally field cultivated fodder maize. The nutrient content of hydroponic maize fodder was found to be high and suitable for feeding ruminant livestock. | en_US |
