Performance and Cost-benefit analysis of KALAWAD Goats fed Diets Containing Graded Levels of Moringa Oleifera Leaf Meal
View through CrossRef
The rising cost of feed ingredients had led to the development of alternative feed source for the cost effective production and management of ruminant livestock. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Moringa oleifera leaf meal on performance and cost effect of the goats in terms of body weight changes, feed intake and the cost-benefit analysis. Eighty-four -day study was carried out with twelve KALAWAD weaner goats. The goats were divided into three experimental groups of four goats each using completely randomized design. Three experimental diets were formulated to include 0, 5.0 and 7.5% moringa meal. The parameters measured for performance indices were final weight (10.43 to12.46kg), metabolic weight gain (15.30 to 17.43kg), weight gain (3190 to 4100g), daily weight gain (37.63 to 48.02g), dry matter intake (628.89 to 660.74g), dry matter intake (580.14 to 614.33g) and feed conversion ratio (16.59 to 14.54). Also, the parameters measured under the cost-benefits analysis were total feed intake, total cost of feed, cost of feed/kg gain and % Reduction in cost/kg gain. The results showed that inclusion of Moringa meal as a supplement had significant (p<0.05) effect on the weight gain, feed intake, dry matter intake and metabolic weight gain of the animals. The Moringa leaf meal-based supplements had lowered (from N2480.92 to N2160.44) the cost of feed per kilogram of weight gain. The experimental diets were offered at 4% body weight. In this study, it was concluded that 7.5% inclusion level of Moringa oleifera leaf meal into the diet improves the performance and reduced cost of feed per kilogram weight gain.

Title: Performance and Cost-benefit analysis of KALAWAD Goats fed Diets Containing Graded Levels of Moringa Oleifera Leaf Meal
Description:
The rising cost of feed ingredients had led to the development of alternative feed source for the cost effective production and management of ruminant livestock.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Moringa oleifera leaf meal on performance and cost effect of the goats in terms of body weight changes, feed intake and the cost-benefit analysis.
Eighty-four -day study was carried out with twelve KALAWAD weaner goats.
The goats were divided into three experimental groups of four goats each using completely randomized design.
Three experimental diets were formulated to include 0, 5.
0 and 7.
5% moringa meal.
The parameters measured for performance indices were final weight (10.
43 to12.
46kg), metabolic weight gain (15.
30 to 17.
43kg), weight gain (3190 to 4100g), daily weight gain (37.
63 to 48.
02g), dry matter intake (628.
89 to 660.
74g), dry matter intake (580.
14 to 614.
33g) and feed conversion ratio (16.
59 to 14.
54).
Also, the parameters measured under the cost-benefits analysis were total feed intake, total cost of feed, cost of feed/kg gain and % Reduction in cost/kg gain.
The results showed that inclusion of Moringa meal as a supplement had significant (p<0.
05) effect on the weight gain, feed intake, dry matter intake and metabolic weight gain of the animals.
The Moringa leaf meal-based supplements had lowered (from N2480.
92 to N2160.
44) the cost of feed per kilogram of weight gain.
The experimental diets were offered at 4% body weight.
In this study, it was concluded that 7.
5% inclusion level of Moringa oleifera leaf meal into the diet improves the performance and reduced cost of feed per kilogram weight gain.
