Abstract

Heat of warming (HW) was estimated in 18 adults barbari bucks fed on barley straw supplemented with barley grain and protein supplements. The H W values (kj/h/d) ranged from 188.69 to 211.20 in experiment 1 and 148.11 to 171.06 in experiment 2. The H W amounted to 2.9 to 4.16% of metabolizable energy intake in bucks. The HW values may be considered while assessing the energy requirements of bucks in cold season.
