3. COMPARATIVE EFFECT OF COMMERCIAL FEED AND FORMULATED DIETS ON THE GROWTH AND BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS OF HETEROBRANCHUS BIDORSALIS (CATFISH) FINGERLINGS
ABSTRACT
Fish farming is a major viable solution to the problem of protein inadequacy in Nigeria but the high cost of feed remains a major obstacle. This study evaluated the comparative effect of commercial feed and formulated diets on the growth and biochemical parameters of Heterobran...
4. FEEDING ECOLOGY AND NUTRITIONAL STATUS OF SOME FISH SPECIES FROM TUNGAN KAWO RESERVOIR, KONTAGORA, NIGER STATE, NIGERIA
ABSTRACT
The study of the biology of three fish species; Tilapia zillii, Clarias gariepinus and Synodontis clarias with reference to their diet composition is an important aspect in fish biology. This research was aimed at evaluating the Feeding Ecology and nutritional status of selecte...
5. GROWTH PERFORMANCE AND CARCASS CHARACTERISTIC OF WEANER R RABBITS (Oryctolagus cunniculus) FED DIETS CONTAINING VARYING L LEVELS OF Stylosanthes hamata LEAF MEAL
ABSTRACT
This experiment was conducted to investigate the growth performance and carcass characteristics of weaner rabbits fed varying levels of Stylosanthes hamata leaf meal in the diet. The rabbits were randomly allocated into five treatment groups with three replicates comprising of...
6. NUTRITIONAL, SENSORY AND STORAGE PROPERTIES OF SNACK PRODUCED FROM MAIZE (Zea mays Linn) AND AFRICAN YAM BEAN SEED (Sphenostylis stenocarpa Hochst Ex A. Rich) FLOUR BLENDS
ABSTRACT
Low nutritional value and inconsistent sensory qualities arising from crude and nonstandardised processing operations characterise most Nigerian maize-based snacks including kokoro. African Yam Bean Seed (AYB) is an underutilised crop with high nutritional value, but literature...
7. FUNGAL-DEGRADED MAIZE BY-PRODUCTS AS FEED FOR WEST AFRICAN DWARF RAM
ABSTRACT
Maize by-products are potential feed resources for ruminants if properly harnessed. Their uses are however limited by high fibre content and low digestibility which can be enhanced by fungal degradation. Information on the use of fungal-degradation of maize by-products as feed...
