effect of ensiling eggplant (solanum melongena l.) forage on intake and nutrient digestibility by yankasa rams

Forty-eight (48) Yankasa rams with average weight 21.67±1.6kg were used to study the effects of ensiling eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) forage on nutrient digestibility, intake, anti-nutritional factors, mineral content, nitrogen balance and haematological parameters in rams. The rams were randomly assigned to eight treatments, with six rams per... Continue Reading
