Other claims from this paper (14)
- Association Small-type black pod by-products had significantly higher moisture, crude protein and ether extract than the other size types.
- Association Small-type black pod by-products had significantly higher digestible and metabolizable energy than the other size types.
- Association Small-type black pod by-products had significantly higher net energy for maintenance, gain and lactation than the other size types.
- Association Small-type black pod by-products had significantly higher calcium, phosphorus and potassium than the other size types.
- Association Small-type black pod by-products had significantly higher sodium than the other size types.
- Observation Small-type black pod by-products were superior in nutritional quality and qualify as Prime forage.
- Association Medium-type black pod by-products had significantly higher neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber and lignin, which is undesirable for forage.
- Association Medium-type black pod by-products had higher gross energy.
- Observation Medium-type black pod by-products were rated as Fair quality forage.
- Association Large-type black pod by-products had the highest crude fiber, hemicellulose and cellulose, which is undesirable for forage.
- Association Large-type black pod by-products had the highest total carbohydrates.
- Observation Large-type black pod by-products earned a Good forage rating.
- Association Dry matter content was not statistically significantly different among medium- to large-type black pod by-products.
- Recommendation The authors recommend investigating in vivo or in vitro digestibility of the black pod by-products.
