Effect of Dietary Roughage and Concentrate Ratio on Nutrient Utilization and Performance of Ruminant Animals

摘要: The objective of this review paper is to highlights the role dietary roughage and concentrate ratio on feed intake, nutrient utilisation growth performance ruminant animals. Daily dry matter intake increases with increase in level. digestibility matter, crude protein, ether extract nitrogen-free increased whereas fibre decreases proportion diet ruminants. Rumen VFA, total nitrogen, ammonia nitrogen production rumen pH decrease diet. number viable bacteria, amylolytic proteolytic ciliate protozoa fungi are levels feeding. Milk production, body weight gain conversion efficiency better high than low fed Higher diets reduced cost compared higher forage
