The Effect Of Weight-For Weight Substitution Of Raw Bambara Groundnut Waste For Groundnut Cake On The Performance Of Rabbits
ABSTRACT
In recent times, the cost of major
sources of feed for livestock a continues to increase beyond the reach of the
local farmers. 'This development could be traced to be as a result of
competition for them by man, industries and animal and thus making the cost of
livestock product very high. lo solve this problem there is need to embark upon
massive production of these items to meet the current demand or search for
alternative or cheaper source golfed. Researches have shown that a large number
of feed which have potentials as livestock feed ingredients abound in Nigeria
(Ologliogho, 1 992). 'Ihese include fibrous residues from crop, agro industrial
byproduct etc, whose potential nutritive values are just becoming known in
Nigeria. (Amaefule, and Obicha tI). The shortfall of using these potential
feedstuffs is the poor industrial and technological base of the country which
results to fragmental supply of these materit I. TI creftre ked producers using
these cut egories ot' tied ingredients can hardly maintain standard. Bambara
groundnut has been reported to he a good source of plant protein that is used
for feeding livestock (Oluyenii et al, 1976 and Olomu, 1995). Its uses have
been reported by many workers Cliizoha 1983 and Linnernan, 1 990). It yield has
been put to about 1 00,000 tones of the crop annually in the country (ftachie,
1975).
