Abstract

This research was carried out to assess the nutritional content of frequently used feedstuffs/agro industrial by products as per CNCPS along with in vitro digestibility, gas and methane production. Study was conducted on twenty one frequently used animal feed ingredients relating 8 cereal grains and 13 agro industrial by-products (AIBP). It was observed that lignin (% NDF) was lowest in white maize (5.28) and highest in gram khanda (30.93). NPN (%SP) content was highest in gram churi (73.32) and lowest in wheat grains (10.85). Among grains, values (%) for protein fraction P_A, P_B1,P_B2,P_B3 and fraction P_C were found to be highest for oat (10.58), wheat (26.85), pearl millet (72.08),barley (17.63) and pearl millet (7.09), respectively while for AIBP, maximum values were observed for gram churi (32.67), beet pulp (56.98), gram khanda (82.61), paddy straw (43.39) and in gram husk (25.07), respectively. For AIBP, Carbohydrate fractions, C_B1 content was highest (42.71) in wheat bran and C_A was highest (61.74) in DDGS. It was observed that AIBP had more unavailable carbohydrate fraction (C_C) in comparison to grains. Average values of IVDMD and IVOMD for grains were observed to be 89.78% and 90.80%, and for AIBP 75.19% and 75.23%, respectively. Average gas production (ml/200 mg) was found to be 57.85% for grains and 33.60% for AIBP. It was found that average methane generation (g/kg IVDMD) was comparable for grains and agro industrial by-products. Therefore, the study's findings may help to clarify more about the digestibility and gas production of agro industrial by products and cereal grains for more precise and environment friendly feed formulation for dairy animals.
