- W16826714 abstract "Sago (Metroxylon sagu, Rott.) pith meal (SPM) can be used as an excellent energyfeed for ruminant livestock because the pith contains high amount of starch andsome indigenous fibre. However, there is a lack of information on the nutritiveproperties of SPM and effects of feeding SPM on the digestion parameters ofruminant animal. Therefore, the objectives of the present studies were: to determinethe physical and chemical caharacteristics of SPM; and to study the effects offeeding SPM based diets on the growth performance of lambs and on digestibility ofthe diets , especially in relation to nutrient flows and microbial protein synthesis, insheep. The experimental diets used were SPM plus soya bean meal (Diet A), SPMplus soya bean meal and urea (Diet B) and SPM plus fish meal and urea (Diet C).The crude protein content of SPM was less than 2% while the neutral detergent fibre(NDF), starch and gross energy (GE) contents on dry weight basis were 12.8%,72.2% and 1 7.5 MJ/kg, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy revealed thatSPM consisted mainly of starch granules, parenchyma cell walls and vascular bundle fibres which were degraded in situ at different rates by the rumen microbes. Thedigestibility of organic matter in dry matter (DOMD) was similar for all the dietswhich averaged 77-78%, but the metabolisable (ME) and net energy for fattening(NEJ values were: 10.4, 10.4, 11.0 MJ ME and 7.7, 7.7, 8.0 MJ NEr (P<0.05) per kgof feed dry weight for the three diets, respectively. The performance responses of 21lambs fed with the three diets showed that their final weights and average daily gains(ADG) were: Diet A, 28.9 kg and 122 g; Diet B, 21.9 kg and 50 g: Diet C, 24.6 kgand 76 g (P<0.05). The efficiencies of microbial protein synthesis measured interms of g Nlkg starch digested in the rumen for these respective diets were 81.3,21.9 and 32.3 g (P<0.10).In conclusion, sago-pith meal contains an energy value equivalent to maize grainsbut having additional benefits from the indigenous fibres which are necessary forcellulolysis and the roughage effect. To improve the efficiency of energy utilizationfrom sago diets, ruminal pH depression due to rapid breakdown of starch need to besufficiently controlled such as through proper feed processing, ration formulationand feeding regimen." @default.
