Effect of inclusion of varying levels of green gram (Vigna radiata) chuni in concentrate mixtures on nutrient utilization in native male buffaloes

摘要

Pulse chunies are byproducts obtained from processing of pulses while preparing dals and are available to an extent of 3 million tonnes annually in India. They contain broken seed coat, germ and small pieces of broken cotyledons constituting around 15-20% of total weight of pulses. Very little information is available in the literature on effective levels of inclusion of chunies in complete rations for runfinants. The objective of this experiment was to study the effect of inclusion of varying levels of green gram (Vigna radiata) Chuni in the concentrate mixtures for native buffaloes on the nutrient utilization.
