Investigation of the Effect of Alfalfa Flour Added to Fish Feed on the Nutritional Value of Fish Feed
Journal Title: ISPEC Journal of Agricultural Sciences - Year 2023, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
Study was conducted to determine the effect of alfalfa flour added to fish feed on the nutritional value of fish feed. In the study, pure of alfalfa flour and fish feed and their mixtures in certain ratios were used. It was determined that the effects of alfalfa flour and fish feed pure and mixtures on dry matter, crude protein, ADF, NDF, digestible dry matter, digestible energy, metabolic energy, dry matter intake, relative feed value, phosphorus, potassium and calcium ratios were statistically significant (P≤0.01), while the effects on magnesium values were insignificant. The highest dry matter and crude protein ratios were obtained from pure fish feed. The lowest ADF and NDF ratios and the highest digestible dry matter, digestible energy, digestible energy, metabolic energy, dry matter intake and relative feed value were obtained from the mixtures in which 5%, 10% and 15% alfalfa flour was added fish feed and with pure fish feed. Therefore, it was concluded that it may be advantageous to add alfalfa flour at a rate ranging from 5-15% to fish feed. In addition, it was determined that the addition of alfalfa flour to fish feed enriched the potassium and calcium content of fish feed.
