Comparison of Fibrous fraction Digestibility of Diet in 15-Months Growing Ostrich in Different level of Fat supplementation
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
The present study was conducted to investigate effect of different level of fat on performance and nutrient digestibility in 15 month ostrich. The experiment was carried out at 18 ostrich with 88± 0.14 kg mean live weight were assigned in a completely randomized design to three treatments: 1-Control diet (C), 2-Diet with 20 g/kg Different level of fat(F1) 3-Diet with 40 g/kg different level of fat(F2). A control diet (C) was formulated to supply the birds' nutritional requirements. Five replications were used. Data in this experiment were evaluated by ANOVA in a completely randomized design. Although the ostriches in control group showed CF digestibility (62.39 %) compared to other group numerically but different level of fat had no significantly negative effect on CF digestibility in F1 and F2 during this experiment. There was no significant difference between treatments in cellulose (CELL), hemicellulose (HEMI-CELL) and nonfibrous carbohydrate (NFC) (P>0.05). With different level of fat supplementation, had no significant effect on CF, CELL and HEMI-CELL digestibility and it can improve their retention and in despite of this reducing environmental pollution with this excess nutrients. New studies should be carried out aiming at a better standardization of feedstuffs nutrition value for ostrich, in order to correctly estimate feedstuff nutrient uptake by growing ostrich.
