Nitrogen Retention Value in Local Sheep Fed with Dwarf Elephant Grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Mott) and Indigofera (Indigofera zollingeriana)
Abstract
This study aimed to determine the nitrogen retention in local sheep fed dwarf elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Mott) and indigofera (Indigofera zollingeriana). A completely randomized design (CRD) was used, consisting of four treatments with four replications each. The dietary treatments included: T= 100% dwarf elephant grass, T= 95% dwarf elephant grass + 5% indigofera, T2= 90% dwarf elephant grass + 10% indigofera, and T= 85% dwarf elephant grass + 15% indigofera. The parameters measured were dry matter intake (DMI), dry matter digestibility (DMD), nitrogen (N) intake, N retention, and average daily gain (ADG). The results showed that DMI, DMD, N intake, N retention, and ADG were significantly (P<0.05) influenced by the dietary treatments. Based on these findings, the combination of 95% dwarf elephant grass and 5% indigofera was the most effective in improving DMI, DMD, N intake, N retention, and ADG in local sheep.
