The determination of nutritive value of alhagi by in situ and gas production techniques

Amir Piri, Valiollah Palangi and Peiman Eivazi

In order to determine of nutritive value of Alhagi using in situ and gas production techniques, this study was carried out. In this study two fistulated wetheres (35±1.8 kg) were used in in situ method. The gas production was measured at 2,4,6,8,12,16,24,36, 48, 72 and 96 h and ruminal DM and CP disappearances were measured 0,2,4,6,8,12,16,24,36,48,72 and 96 h. Dry matter degradabilities of Alhagi at 96h was 54.33% and Crude protein degradabilities of Alhagi at same time was 49.01%. metabolizable protein of Alhagi was 94.88 g/d. The gas production of Alhagi at 96h achieved 205.50 ml/g. Alhagi can used largly as a ruminant feeds.
