Abstract:
This research was conducted in order to investigate rumen
degradability of some factors includes; Dray Matter (DM), Organic Matter (OM),
Crude Protein (CP), Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF) in three different plant protein
supplements includes; soybean, canola and cottonseed meal. The experiment was
carried out using in three castrated and fistulated male Zel sheep. Each feedstuff
was weighed into duplicate nylon bags and incubated in each of the three rumen
fistulated sheep for 0, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 48 h. Results revealed that effective
degradability of DM of soybean, canola and cottonseed meal were 55.8, 73.8 and
48.5%, respectively. Effective degradabilities of the CP in feedstuffs were
55.8, 62 and 48.3% for the respective feedstuffs. Effective degradabilities
of the OM were 55.7, 56.4 and 47.4%, respectively. Results also showed that
effective degradabilities of the ADF were 55, 56.4 and 37.6, respectively. According
to the results the researchers concluded that canola and soybean were more degradable
in the rumen of the sheep while cottonseed meal were less degradable and, hence
resulted in higher rumen undegradable protein.
