Use of post‐harvest common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) residues in diet of lambs and its effect on finishing performance, rumen fermentation, protozoa population and meat characteristics

Abstract: The aim of the experiment was to investigate the replacement value of common bean residues in the diet of finishing lambs as an inexpensive fodder instead of wheat straw or maize silage. Forty Arabi male lambs with average body weight of 18.90 ± 0.6 kg were randomly divided into five treatments with eight replications. The five experimental treatments consisted of control diet, and 50% and 100% replacement of bean residues with wheat straw or 25% and 50% replacement with maize silage in the control diet respec… Show more

“…Animals growth rate and carcass traits depend on the amount of feed consumed and the availability of dietary nutrients, and the efficiency of lambs in converting food into live weight and depends on various factors such as breed, sex, age and nutritional levels (Eynipour et al., 2019 ) that these factors were not affected by experimental diets in the present experiment. Feeding PP extract as a source of tannin to fattening lambs had no effect on carcass characteristics (Sharifi & Chaji, 2019 ).…”

“…On day 65th, the lambs were weighed after 14–16 h of starvation with a digital scale. Growth performance parameters, such as feed conversion ratio (feed intake/weight gain), feed efficiency (body weight gain/feed intake) and average daily gain (ADG) (weight gain/number of days), were calculated according to the feed intake and weight changes (Eynipour et al., 2019 ).…”

“…The lambs were weighed before the experiment and then every 15 days before morning feeding with 14-16 hours of fasting, to study growth and fattening performance. Considering the amount of feed consumed and weight changes, feed conversion ratio, feed e ciency, and average daily gain and nal weight were calculated (Eynipour et al 2019).…”
