چکیده انگلیسی
A study was completed to evaluate effects of increasing dietary levels of dry pods of Meskit (Prosopis juliflora) on Omani native goat performance. Individual feed intake and body weight were determined during a 50-day experimental period. Rations with four levels (0, 100, 200 and 300Â g/kg) of Meskit pods were fed to Omani goats by reducing the proportion of Rhodes grass (Chloris guyana) hay in the diet. The ripened Meskit pods contained 930Â g/kg dry matter, 120Â g/kg crude protein, 317Â g/kg acid detergent fibre, 402Â g/kg neutral detergent fibre, 26Â g/kg ether extract and 40Â g/kg ash. Feed intake, growth rate and feed conversion were maximized with Meskit in the diet at 200Â g/kg. However, these values dropped sharply when Meskit pod proportion in the ration was increased to 300Â g/kg. Feeding diets containing levels of Meskit pods up to 300Â g/kg did not affect proportions of body components or carcass chemical composition. Results indicate that P. juliflora pods can be used up to proportions of 200Â g/kg in Omani goat diets to improve feed intake, feed conversion and body weight gain without compromising carcass yield or quality.
