Abstract/Description: | Due to the prevailing practice of burning forest for shifting cultivation in the mithun habitated areas, feeding of mithun during winter months was observed to be a major constraint. To alleviate this problem, the conservation of farm- grown fodder crops like Napier, Jowar, Para grass and natural grass of the area through making hay and silage was attempted. The hay and silage prepared from these grasses were stored for three months and then their proximate composition was estimated. It was observed that the hay prepared from Napier contained 6.78+1.20% crude protein (highest) and NFE was highest in Jowar (62. I 1+4.91%). The addition of soluble carbohydrates in the form of molasses resulted into overall increase in NFE content while added to 1% or 1.5% or 2% (w/w) level. This study further envisaged a detailed metabolic trial on the effect of inclusion of conserved fodders in the feeding regime of mithun. |
