THE INFLUENCE OF SOIL DIFFERENTIATION ON CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF SEA BUCKTHORN (HIPPOPHAË RHAMNOIDES L.) LEAVES AS FEED MATERIAL
Journal Title: Folia Pomeranae Universitatis Technologiae Stetinensis Agricultura Alimentaria Piscaria et Zootechnica - Year 2016, Vol 39, Issue 328
Abstract
Due to the fact that sea buckthorn leaves could be a supplement to animal feed and food products, the present research aimed at determining the content of such elements as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, zinc, lead, cadmium, nickel and copper in sea buckthorn leaves as well as establishing the relation between the elements content and soil composition. The leaf samples were collected in June 2014 from wild sea buckthorn shrubs (Hippophae rhamnoides L. ssp. rhamnoides) localised in four spots in Szczecin Poland. The data concerning the content of macronutrients (N, P, K, Ca, Mg) and micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn, Ni, Cu, Pb, Cd) in leaves of wild sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) indicate that the leaves can be considered good animal feed material, comparable to grass and legumes. The fact that content of lead and cadmium in wild sea buckthorn leaves do not exceed the accepted norms for these elements is an another argument confirming its usefulness as an animal feed material.
