Asian Journal of Animal and Veterinary Advances1683-99191996-3289Academic Journals Inc.10.3923/ajava.2015.62.73El-BordenyN.E. KhattabH.M. El-BadrA.M. MadkourMarwa A. 22015102The objective of this study was to investigate the ability of biological treatment
(Trichoderma viride and Trichoderma reesei application) of rice
straw to improve its chemical composition and cell wall constituents, as well
as to evaluate male lambs performance
fed ration containing treated rice straw. Thirty crossbred (Rahmany X Romanof)
lambs (3 months old, 21±1.46 kg body weight) were randomly assigned to
three groups (10 lambs each). Group one was fed ration contained 57% concentrate
feed mixture and 19% clover hay plus 24 Untreated Rice Straw (URS), while group
two and three were fed rations containing treated rice straw with Trichoderma
reesei (TRSV) and Trichoderma viride (TRSR) instead of URS, respectively.
Both of biologically treated rice straw TRSV and TRSR recorded lower OM, NDF,
ADF and cellulose contents sthan URS. While TRSV and TRSR recorded higher CP,
Ash and ADL contents compared to URS. Recovery rate as DM and OM for TRSV were
higher than those for TRSR which was 88.05 vs 85.01 for DM recovery and 86.17
vs 83.47 for OM recovery. Insignificant differences were observed in nutrients
digestibility, while insignificant increase in nutritive values as digestible
protein and total digestible nutrients as well as nitrogen retention were observed
for groups fed TRSV and TRSR compared to control. No significant differences
were observed in rumen liquor TVFAs,
ammonia-N concentration and pH value among groups at 0, 3 and 6 h after feeding.
Groups received TRSV and TRSR were significantly higher total gain and average
daily gain and recorded better feed conversion as DM and CP compared to the
control group. It could be concluded that biodegradation of rice straw using
T. viride and T. reesei upgrade its chemical composition and inclusion
TRSV and TRSR in animal ration had no adverse effect on animal performance.]]>Adamovic, M., G. Grubic, I. Milenkovic, R. Jovanovic, R. Protic, L. Sretenovic and L.
