Abstract

The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of sweet sorghum stover cost 005/kg supplementation as complete balanced diet at 60  level on sheep performance carcass characteristics and economics in comparison to maize stover cost 008/kg and sorghum stover cost 009/kg conventional roughage sources Eighteen Nellore ram lambs aged about 3 months average body weight 1565 ± 010 kg were randomly allotted to three complete diets formulated with roughage to concentrate ratio of 6040 on dry matter basis using sorghum stover SS maize stover MS and sweet sorghum stover SSS as roughage sources for a period of 120 days The average daily dry matter intake g/kg w075 average daily gain grams and feed conversion efficiency were similar among the experimental diets No significant differences were observed among the treatment groups for the mean live weight kg at slaughter empty body weight kg dressing percentage on live weight basis or on empty body weight basis proportion of different wholesale cuts percentage of edible offals and nonedible offals proportion of meat meat/bone ratio and chemical composition of meat Thus it can be concluded that sweet sorghum stover can be incorporated in the complete diets of lambs by replacing conventional roughages such as sorghum stover and maize stover processed as mash form without affecting the performance nutrient digestibility and carcass characteristics
