“…The data showed that the IVDMD and IVOMD of A. compressus , C. plectostachyus and P. purpureum were significantly higher ( P < 0.05) in the rainy season compared with the dry season. The higher IVDMD in the rainy season compared with the dry season was in agreement with the result found by Nasrullah et al . (2003).…”

The nutritive values of seven native grass species collected in North Sumatra, Indonesia, during dry and rainy seasons were evaluated. The chemical composition, in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), in vitro organic matter digestibility (IVOMD), in vitro crude protein digestibility (IVCPD), macro mineral concentrations of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium, in vitro gas production profile and metabolizable energy (ME) content of the grasses varied greatly among species and seasons. The crude protein content ranged from 6.6 (Andropogon gayanus) to 16.2% dry matter (Cynodon plectostachyus) in the rainy season, with a significant (P < 0.05) reduction in the dry season. Data on the fiber fraction showed that the grasses contained more neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (ADF) in the dry season and it significantly (P < 0.05) decreased in the rainy season, except for Panicum maximum and Pennisetum purpureum for NDF content and C. plectostachyus, P. maximum and Brachiaria decumbens for ADF content. Data on the mineral concentration showed that C. plectostachyus in the dry and rainy seasons had a higher calcium content than those of other species. The overall means of the seven grasses for IVDMD, IVOMD and IVCPD were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the rainy season than in the dry season. The in vitro gas production and ME concentration were numerically higher in the rainy season than in the dry season. In conclusion, the nutritive value of the observed grasses in North Sumatra was relatively higher during the rainy season compared with the dry season. Among the species of grass, P. purpureum and C. plectostachyus had a higher nutritive value in both the dry and rainy seasons.

“…Jengkol leaves have 15.17% and 19.26% of CP content, almost similar to legumes leaves commonly used as protein source for ruminant such as Kaliandra (Calliandra calothyrsus) with 19.75%, Calopo (Calopogonium muconoides) with 15.75%, Centro (Centrosema pubescens) with 19.34%, and Gamal (Gliricidia sepium) with 20.40% (Nasrullah et al 2003;Foroughbakch et al 2013). Lachman et al (2005) reported that variety, growing area, and age of cultivation play important role in protein contents whereas cultivation method has less influence.…”

“…Jengkol peel has CF content of 33.07% and 35.28%. These are higher than usual fiber sources for ruminant, such as native grasses (29.65%), Pennisetum purpureum (31.29%), Pennisetum purpupoides (32.23%), Brachiaria decumbens (30.55%), and Brachiaria humidicola (34.18%) (Nasrullah et al 2003).

“…The content of NDF, hemicellulose, and cellulose of jengkol peel (55.33-58.74%, 14.49-14.96%, 26.99-28.23%) are still lower compared to various grasses often used as livestock feeds, but the ADF and lignin are relatively higher (40.84-43.78%, 15.48-16.42%) ( Table 3). Nasrullah et al (2003) reported that NDF, ADF, hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin from some grasses: Native grasses: 68.09%, 34.55%, 33.53%, 23.07%, 6.08%; Pennisetum purpureum: 66.96%, 35.55%, 31.21%, 25.93%, 5.03%; Pennisetum purpupoides: 69.37%, 39.10%, 30.27%, 26.37%, 6.65%; Brachiaria decumbens: 68.16%, 34.62%, 33.55%, 26.33%, 4.81% and Brachiaria humidicola: 73.51%, 40.71%, 32.80%, 30.65%, 6.94%. Similar report is also made by Azevêdo et al (2012) who found that coffee hull has NDF of 57.10% and ADF of 45.80%; soybean hull has NDF of 67.50% and ADF of 45.40%.…”

Abstract. Hidayah N, Lubis R, Wiryawan KG, Suharti S. 2019. Phenotypic identification, nutrients content, bioactive compounds of two jengkol (Archidendron jiringa) varieties from Bengkulu, Indonesia and their potentials as ruminant feed. Biodiversitas 20: 1671-1680. Agricultural waste is abundant in tropical countries. Many farmers in these countries have been using this waste as the main sources for feeding livestock. Ones of them are jengkol (Archidendron jiringa) by-product like peels and leaves have not been utilized optimally. The aims of this study were to explore the peel and leaves of two varieties of jengkol, i.e., jengkol gajah and jengkol padi, from Bengkulu Province and to assess their potentials as ruminant feed. Variables observed were phenotypic identification, nutrients content, and bioactive compounds. Phenotypic identification was completed using non-experimental examination through survey and observation methods to identify the phenotypic characters of jengkol in four districts in Bengkulu. The peel of jengkol padi had a blackish purple color and was thicker than that of jengkol gajah. The leaves of jengkol gajah was longer (10.2-15.5 cm), but jengkol padi had wider leaves (6-7.5 cm). The proportion of weight of jengkol peel (59.99%) is higher than seed (40.01%). Jengkol peel had high fiber content (33.07-35.28%) while the leaves were rich in protein and total digestible nutrient (TDN) (15.17-19.26% and 63.87-65.82%). In nutrient content comparison, the peel of jengkol padi was better (crude protein (CP:8.41%, ether extract (EE):0.79%, crude fiber (CF): 35.28% and total digestible nutrient (TDN): 52.81% but jengkol gajah had better nutrient in its leaves (CP:19.26%, EE:2.50%, CF:26.66% and TDN:51.56%).The saponin content (26.52%), total phenol (2.99%), and tannin (1.22%) in the peel were higher than those in the leaves, while the leaves had higher flavonoids content (2.0%) than the peels. Bioactive compounds in jengkol gajah were higher than those in jengkol padi. Based on this study, both jengkol gajah and jengkol padi are potential as ruminant feed in which the peel can be a source of fiber and saponins, while the leaves are potentially used as a source of protein, fiber and saponins.

The local farmers of Central Punjab, Pakistan have been using indigenous grasses as vital components of ruminant diets, but little is reported about their nutritional potential. Hence this study investigated nutritive potential of a selection of ethnobotanically important fodder grasses. Multiple nutritional parameters (proximate components, fibre fractions), secondary metabolites (phenolics, tannins) and in vitro digestibility values were determined. Furthermore, the legitimacy of ethnobotanical knowledge of local inhabitants about these grasses was also verified. The results suggested that majority (77%) of these grasses can be regarded as good quality fodders because of their high protein (169 g/kg) and good digestibility (457 g/kg) with moderate fibre (≤ 602 g/kg), lignin (≤ 50 g/kg) and secondary metabolites (total phenols ≤ 87 g/kg, total tannins ≤ 78 g/kg, condensed tannins ≤ 61 g/kg). Pearson correlation between nutritional parameters indicated that in vitro digestibility values were positively correlated with crude proteins (IVDMD, r = + 0.83 and IVOMD, r = + 0.83 respectively) and negatively correlated with fibre (NDF, r = − 0.91), ADF, r = − 0.84 and ADL, r = − 0.82) contents. Moreover, a positive relationship was identified between ethnobotanical knowledge and laboratory findings for studied grasses. Spearman correlation test showed that ranking of grasses based on ethnobotanical preferences were highly correlated (r values) with the laboratory results for CP (0.85), NDF (− 0.76), ADF (− 0.72) and ADL (− 0.62). The resilient complementarities between ethnobotanical preferences and nutritive analysis authenticate farmer’s traditional knowledge, which needed to be aligned with the corresponding scientific data. Farmers can use these findings for appropriate fodder selection and development of precise supplements for feeding ruminants within a sustainable and economically viable livestock industry for food security.
