Potential Nutritive Value of Astragalus Species Harvested at Three Different Maturity Stages

Abstract: Abstract. The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of maturity stages on the chemical composition, in vitro gas and methane production, metabolic energy and organic matter digestibility for eleven Astragalus species widely encountered over the rangelands and intensely grazed by ruminants. Astragalus samples were collected from the rangelands at three different stages namely as before flowering, flowering and bear fruit stages. Dried samples were then subjected to various chemical analysis. Ef… Show more

“…Although the nutritive value of many types of legumes forages in the pasture harvested at different maturity stage is established, Vicia cracca hay isn't the information about the nutritive value. Recently a lot of researchers commonly used chemical composition (crude protein, crude oil, crude ash ADF, NDF, condense tannin) and mineral content to determine the potential nutritive value of different hays (Cacan et al, 2017;Kaplan et al, 2016;Cacan et al, 2017;Kamalak and Durmaz, 2019). The current study was conducted to study the effect of maturity stage on the potential nutritive value of Vicia cracca hay.…”
