| description | A study was conducted to compare the digestive efficiency and urea
kinetics between Malaysian indigenous goats and sheep fed rice
straw + soybean meal (SSB) and rice straw + soybean meal + sago (SSG).
The Dry Matter (DM), Nitrogen (N), Organic Matter (OM) and
Energy (E) intakes in goats and sheep were similar when fed SSB diet, but
with SSG diet, DM intake of goats was higher than sheep, while no
significant differences in N, OM and E intakes were observed.With SSB diet, goats could digest ADF significantly (P<O.05) more
than sheep, but sheep showed higher (P<O.05) digestibility values for
Crude Protein (CP), OM and E than those of goats. However, with SSG
diet only digestibility values for E were significantly different between the
two animal species.
Potential degradability for DM and NDF of straw were higher
(P<O.05) in goats than sheep when fed SSB diet. However, goats had lower
values (P>O.05) in N potential degradability of Soybean Meal (SBM) than
sheep.
Studies in rumen fluid parameters showed that ammonia
concentration was higher in sheep (3 82.89 ± 3 3 .76 mg Nil) than goats
(363.24 ± 43.42 mg N/l), while pH and total Volatile Fatty Acid (VFA)
concentrations were similar between the two species when fed SSB diet.
The molar proportion of acetate in goats was higher (79. 13 ± 2 .95%) than
that in sheep (75.84 ± 3 .91 %), but the reverse was true for molar proportion
of propionate where the values obtained for sheep and goats were 15 .57 ±
2 .40% and 17.96 ± 2.72%, respectively. No significant difference in
molar proportion of butyrate was observed between the two animal species. |
