“…The present study illustrated that, dietary supplemental I alone at 0.6 mg/kg DM improved (P<0.05) the digestibility of CP, ADF and the nutritive values as DCP and TDN, with no significant changes in digestibility of DM, OM, EE, CF and NDF in Ossimi sheep. Similar effect of I supplementation was also let to significantly increase CP digestibility in goats fed I at 0.04 mg/head/day, with no significant effect on digestibility of DM and OM as reported by Pattanaik et al (2000). While, they found EE digestibility to be increased with supplemental I, which contradicts with the present study.…”

total number of 32 Ossimi pregnant ewes averaged 50.77 ± 2.29 kg and 2.5 years old at 4-6 weeks of late-gestation were used to assess the effect of dietary supplementation of iodine (I) and selenium (Se) on nutrients digestibility and productive performance of ewes and their suckling lambs. The ewes were allocated into four equal groups (8 ewes in each). The ewes were fed on basal diet containing 0.048 mg I and 0.19 mg Se/kg DM (control) supplemented with 0.6 mg I (T1), 0.2 mg Se (T2) and 0.6 mg I plus 0.2 mg Se (T3) /kg DM. The results showed that digestibility of DM, OM, EE, CF and NDF were higher (P<0.05) for ewes fed T2 and T3 diets than those fed control or T1. Digestibility of CP increased (P<0.05) with feeding T3 diet vs. each of T1 or T2. The ADF digestibility was greater (P<0.05) for ewes fed T1, T2 and T3 diets than those fed control. The nutritive value (DCP and TDN) increased (P<0.05) with feeding T1, T2 and T3 diets vs. control. The improving in DCP and TDN was higher (P<0.05) with feeding T3 diet than each of T1 or T2. No significant differences was detected in all productive performance for ewes fed on T1, T2 and T3 diets vs. control. While, the digestible crude protein intake (DCPI) increased (P<0.05) for ewes fed T1, T2 and T3 diets vs. control. The total digestible nutrients intake (TDNI) was higher (P<0.05) for ewes fed T2 and T3 diets compared to control or those fed T1. The averages of DCPI and TDNI were greater (P<0.05) for ewes fed T3 than those fed T1 or T2. Data of lambs showed that the birth weight increased (P<0.01) for lambs born to ewes fed T2 or T3 diets compared to those born to ewes fed control or T1 diet. Lambs born to ewes fed T1, T2 and T3 diets had higher (P<0.01) averages of FBW and daily gain (ADG) vs. control. Averages of final body weight (FBW) and average daily gain (ADG) were improved (P<0.01) for lambs born to ewes fed T3 diet vs. control or fed on T1. This study demonstrated that the combined I and Se dietary supplementation led to positive effects on nutrients digestibility, nutritive values of ewes diet and enhancing growth performance of their suckling lambs.

“…A positive response of iodine supply in terms of protein utilization has been reported earlier (Regius-Mocseny et al 1992). A similar trend of better nitrogen utilization was also recorded earlier when diets for goats containing leucaena and mustard cake were supplemented with extra iodine (Pattanaik et al 2000(Pattanaik et al , 2001. The indigenous goats of the region used for the study are medium-sized animals with various coat colours ranging between brown, black and white, and reared mainly for meat.…”

“…On the contrary, it is generally believed that leucaena can constitute up to 0·3 of the diet of ruminants without overt signs of toxicity (Hammond 1995), but sub-clinical effects, mainly in terms of reduced weight gain and feed intake, may still be apparent. In previous studies involving adult goats, improved nutrient utilization and nitrogen retention when leucaena-containing diets were fortified with iodine has been observed (Pattanaik et al 2000; Rajendran et al . 2001 a , b ).…”

“…It has potential as a supplement in the primarily crop residue-based small ruminants feeding systems common to most of the tropics. Considering its easy accessibility and good forage quality with an average crude protein (CP) content ranging from 140 to 300 g/kg (Akbar & Gupta 1985; Gupta & Atreja 1998; Pattanaik et al 2000), leucaena is very suitable, both on an economic and nutritional basis, as a protein supplement to cereal straw-based feeding regimens by the resource-poor farmers of developing countries. However, the presence of mimosine impedes the effective and optimal exploitation of this protein-rich forage.…”

SU MMARYFifteen indigenous nondescript kids (8 . 2 kg; 8 months initial age), randomly allotted into three equal groups, were used to study the effects of supplementation of extra iodine on their performance when fed a leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) leaf meal containing diet. Group I (CON) was fed a control concentrate supplement consisting of a conventional protein source whereas the other two groups (LL and LLI) were fed a concentrate containing leucaena leaf meal so as to supply 0 . 5 of the net crude protein (CP) requirements. Additionally, animals in group LLI were given supplemental iodine (as potassium iodide solution) at 0 . 25 mg/head/day. Wheat straw was provided ad libitum as the sole source of roughage during the 120 days of the experimental period. A metabolism trial, conducted at the end of the feeding trial, revealed no variation in the dry matter intake (DMI) among the groups. A significant (P<0 . 01) decline was evident in digestibility of CP in both the leucaena-fed groups (0 . 463 and 0 . 482 versus 0 . 586) whilst that of the other organic components remained unaffected. Animals on the LL diet exhibited lower (P<0 . 01) nitrogen retention and average daily gain (ADG) in live weight (LW). Blood collected periodically was analysed for the thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T 3 ) and thyroxine (T 4 ) as well as other biochemical parameters. At the end of the experimental feeding, the cell-mediated immune (CMI) response of the goats was assessed by intra-dermal inoculation of phytohaemagglutinin-P and measuring the change in skin thickness at various postinoculation hours. The results revealed that the serum concentration of glucose was significantly (P<0 . 05) higher in the LLI group of animals fed leucaena with iodine. The concentration of cholesterol in serum of LL animals increased significantly (P<0 . 05) compared to the CON and LLI groups. No variation due to dietary interventions was evident in other indices of metabolic profile. While the concentration of circulating T 3 remained unaffected due to dietary intervention, that of T 4 reduced significantly (P<0 . 05) in the LL group. Moreover, the T 4 concentration in the LLI group remained similar to that of control indicative of positive impact of iodine supplementation. The immune response revealed that the skin thickness of animals in the LL group was lower (P<0 . 05) as compared to the control, indicating a compromise of CMI response due to feeding of leucaena leaf meal. Supplementation of iodine appeared to be partially effective in potentiating the response. In conclusion, iodine supplementation could be adopted as a strategic management strategy to ameliorate the negative impacts of feeding leucaena leaf meal in growing kids.
