| Abstract | The studies were conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding bypass fat and yeast {Saccharomyces cerevisiae) supplemented total mixed ration comprising of 60: 40 concentrates: Jowar hay on the growth performance of weaner Surti kids. Based on the in vitro studies, the improvement in digestibility of DM, OM and maximum gas production; the optimum levels of live yeast {Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and bypass fat was decided as 2% for incorporation in TMR. Twenty-four growing Surti kids of similar body weight were randomly allotted to four groups, six in each and were individually fed for 15 days preliminary feeding and 120 days experimental period to meet their energy and protein requirements as per ICAR (1998) standards. The kids were fed TMR with no bypass fat and yeast (TO; TMR with 2% yeast (T2); TMR with 2% bypass fat (T3) and TMR with a combination of 2% each of yeast and bypass fat (T4) The average daily gain was 63.74 ± 0.54, 80.22 ± 0.38, 67.43 ± 0.68 and 88.50 ± 0.26 g in T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups, respectively. The treatment groups differed significantly (P<0.01) from each other. The highest gain was in T4 followed by T2, T3 and T1 groups. Similarly, the increase in the body measurements viz. increase in body length (10.00 ± 0.82, 10.83 ± 1.08, 10.83 ± 1.08, 9.67 ± 0.67 and 12.00 ± 0.82 cm), height (15.00 ± 0.58, 16.67 ± 0.67, 14.17 ± 1.19 and 16.33 ± 1.20 cm) and heart girth (15.33 ± 0.67, 16.83 ± 0.75, 15.67 ± 0.49 and 17.33 ± 1.09 cm) of kids in T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups, respectively, indicating that the gain in body length, height and heart girth was numerically higher in T4 kids compared to Ti, T2 and T3 groups. However, the treatment groups did not differ (P>0.05) from each other significantly. The average daily DMI of experimental kids in Ti, T2, T3 and T4 groups during digestion trial was 603.13 ± 17.04, 625.51 ± 15.48, 615.02 ± 11.89 and 639.40 ± 10.94 g/day and when expressed as kg/lOOkg body wt. was 4.37 ± 0.10, 4.25 ± 0.10, 4.40 ± 0.13 and 4.21 ± 0.09 and the same in terms of g/kg wt. was recorded as 84.12 ± 1.37, 84.13 ± 1.32, 84.95 ± 1.82 and 83.00 ± 1.24. The DM intake of experimental kids did not differ significantly (P>0.05). The average digestibility coefficients of nutrients in Ti, T2, T3 and T4 groups for DM (62.24 ± 0.37, 63.90 ± 0.31, 62.82 ± 0.23 and 64.52 ± 0.36%); OM (65.70 ± 0.38, 67.28 ± 0.32, 65.82 ± 0.23 and 67.80 ± 0.36 %); CP (67.37 ± 0.56, 68.34 ± 0.22, 68.14 ± 0.30 and 68.83 ± 0.23%)%); EE (71.05 ± 0.42, 70.90 ± 0.30, 75.68 ± 0.21 and 77.67 ± 0.25%); CF (63.27 ± 0.25, 66.79 ± 0.44, 62.69 ±0.16 and 67.89 ± 0.23%); NDF (56.69 ± 0.39, 60.17 ± 0.23, 57.70 ± 0.21 and 60.24 ± 0.22%); ADF (49.65 ± 0.45, 51.57 ± 0.23, 48.87 ± 0.05 and 50.50 ± 0.33%) and hemi-cellulose (68.37 ± 0.98, 75.63 ± 0.65, 72.76 ± 0.65 and 76.70 ± 0.36%) were significantly (P<0.01) higher in groups supplemented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae alone (T2) and combination of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and bypass fat (T4) group. But the groups did not differ with respect to digestibility coefficient of NFE (65.99 ± 0.68, 67.06 ± 0.54, 65.99 ± 0.35 and 66.95 ± 0.53%). The average DCP content of T1, T2, T3 and T4 groups (7.34 ± 0.06, 7.34 ± 0.02, 7.42 ± 0.02 and 7.42 ± 0.02 %) were statistically similar, but the TDN content of the T4 group (63.17 ± 0.32) was significantly (P<0.01) higher than T1 (61.46 ± 0.34), T2 (62.54 ± 0.29) and T3 (62.45 ± 0.21) groups which did not differ from each other. The respective cumulative intakes in Ti, T2, T3 and T4 groups during 120 days of DM (72.13 ± 1.83, 74.22 ± 1.89, 73.24 ±1.61 and 74.92 ± 1.47 kg), CP (11.51 ± 0.29, 11.71 ± 0.30, 11.67 ± 0.26 and 11.78 ± 0.23 kg) and that of TDN (44.35 ± 1.23, 46.42 + 1.25, 45.75 ±1.12 and 47.32 ± 0.90 kg) were statistically (P<0.05) similar. |
