“…The extrusion cooking of roughage based complete diets could improve the energy density by 4.2 to 6.4% in the present study. The results are in corroboration with the observations of Nagalakshmi and Reddy (2012) and Thirumalesh et al (2003). Therefore, Comparative Evaluation of Extruded Complete Feeds based on Finger Millet (Eleusine coracana) Straw, Areca (Areca catechu)...... extrusion process seems to have a great potential as future technology, in view of advantages of improved nutrition.…”

Background: Although crop residues rich in lignocellulose are a potential source of energy, their utilization is limited due to lack of lignolytic activity of the rumen microbial population. Feed processing by heat treatment is known to break the ligno-cellulolse complexes, in which extrusion has been reported as one of the best processing techniques to improve the nutritional value and efficient utilization of complete diets. A comparative evaluation of extruded complete feed based on finger millet straw, a conventional crop residue, along with areca sheath and maize cob has been taken up in this study. Methods: The extruded complete feed was prepared using roughage and concentrate at proportion of 40:60, respectively. Twenty four Mandya lambs of about 3 to 4 months of age with body weight ranging from 7.8 to 12.9 kg were divided into three groups of eight each in a completely randomized design. Feeding trial was carried out for 12 weeks. The animals were randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups viz., T1 (Finger millet straw based extruded complete feed), T2 (Areca sheath based extruded complete feed) and T3 (Maize cob based extruded complete feed). Digestion trial was conducted using 5 animals in each group during the last week of the growth trial. Result: Analysis of chemical composition (%) revealed that, maize cob and areca sheath were comparable with finger millet straw except that the maize cob contained lower total ash (2.52 v/s 8.61) and higher NDF and hemicellulose content (86.66 v/s71.61; 29.79 v/s17.18). Rumen in vitro net gas (ml / 200 mg DM / 24 h) production and energy density (ME MJ / kg DM) was higher in areca sheath and maize cob as compared to finger millet straw. There was significant difference in total DMI (g/d and g/kgW0.75) among the treatment groups (P£0.05). There was also a significant difference in OM, CP, EE and ADF intake (P£0.05). The ADG (g) and FCR (g DMI/ g BW gain) for T1, T2 and T3 groups were statistically non-significant. The mean apparent digestibility (%) of DM, OM, CP, NDF and ADF was significantly different among the treatment groups(P£0.01). The per cent Digestible organic matter in dry matter (DOMDM) (T1:70.89,T2:76.13and T3:63.33) was also significantly different among the treatments (P£0.01). It was concluded that the growth rate of lambs fed finger millet straw, areca sheath and maize cob based extruded complete feeds was comparable and could be utilized to sustain production performance of growing Mandya lambs.

“…The results showed that the higher the content of banana stems in the ration, the lower the TDN content. The highest carbohydrate content in the study ration was 58.29% in treatment A [23]. The more FBSs increase, the lower the carbohydrate content.…”

In Tanah Papua, banana stems have been used as feed by local pig farmers but with a very simple processing method so that has not had a significant impact on the economic traits local pig production. The research aim is to determine an appropriate level of FBSs as a complete feed for local pig’s starters. A total of 12 local piglets aged about 6-12 weeks were given feed treatment using FBSs at levels of 0, 5,10 and 15%. The variables studied were the level of ration consumption (dry matter consumption, crude protein consumption, crude fiber consumption), daily again, and feed efficiency. The data were analyzed using ANOVA with SPSS version 24 program, then the results of ANOVA gave a significant effect followed by the Tukey test. The results showed that the complete feed treatment of FBS was quite good for local pigs starter because the pigs showed good performance. The FBS complete feed produced crude protein (CP) and metabolic energy (ME) relatively higher than the recommended Indonesian national standard (SNI) for pig starter feed. Feed treatment at 10% FBS was considered quite good based on the average daily gain (ADG) and feed efficiency (FE).
