Title : Boer Goat (Capra hircus): An alternative breed to increase meat production in Nepal: A Review Material Type: printed text Authors: Panday, S.B., Author Pagination: 311-319 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Boer goat, breeds, crossbreds, kidding rate, live weight gains Abstract: There are about 8.47 million goats in Nepal (MoAC 2009). Most of these goats are local and very adaptive to the different ecological zones of Nepal (Subtropical (Terai goats), mid hills (Khari Goats), Mountains (Sinhal) and Temperate (Changra). There may be about 18 percent crosses between these locals and exotic breeds such as Jamunapari, Barbari, and Kiko. Although the number of the goat population is big, their performances in terms of daily live weight gains were very low (40 to 66 g) as compared with the daily live weight gains of Boer Goats (136 to 250 g) and daily live weight gains of Boer goat crossbreds (100 to 200 g)……………………

Title : Effect of Stylo on Dry Matter Intake and Growth Performance in Goat Material Type: printed text Authors: L.N Panday, Author ; M Kam, Author ; Panday, S.B., Author ; Upreti, C.R., Author ; Osti, N.P., Author ; Shrestha, B, Author ; A. A Degen, Author Pagination: 320-325 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Dry matter intake, goat, growth performance, stylo, tree foliage Abstract: A wide range of fodder species are available in the mid-hills of Nepal. Most of them do not meet the nutrient, mainly protein, requirements of livestock. Stylo (Stylosanthesis guinensis) is a legume herb with high crude protein content and which can be grown in the mid-hills of Nepal. This study, conducted in the mid-hills of Nepal, examined the effects of stylo dry matter intake (DMI) and body weight gain in goats. To examine the effects of stylo on DMI and growth in goats, twelve 6-7 month-old castrated male goats were assigned to three dietary treatment groups (n = 4/group)……………….

[article]
Title : Evaluation of Selected Species of Fodder Trees Cultivated for Feeding Ruminant Animals in the Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Khanal, R.C., Author ; Chet R. Upreti, Author Publication Date: 2007 Article on page: 88-94 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Digestibility, goat, nutritive value, performance, tree fodders Abstract: Leaves and twigs from four species of tree fodders, Aetocarpus lakoocha (AL), bauhinia
purpurea (BP), Garuga pinnata (GP) and Ficus sroxburghii (FR), cultivated widely for
feeding ruminants in the hills of Nepal and maintained at the Agriculture Research Station
(Goat), Bandipur were investigated for there chemical composition, and nutrient intake,
digestibility, and growth rate in growing female goats. Differences occurred between species
of tree fodders on nutrient composition, which contained 286, 342, 312, and 263 g/kg DM;
174, 98, 116 and 178 g/kg total ash; 137, 163, 140, and 119 g/kg CP; 440, 458, 437, and 451
g/kg NDF; 383, 407, 382, and 406 g/kg ADF; 177, 135, 181, and 143 g/kg ADL; 19.5, 21.6,
20.9, and 29.3 g/kg Ca; and 2.2, 2.8, 2.4, and 2.5 g/kg P on DM basis for AL, BP, GP, and
FR, respectively. The DM intake was higher for goats fed AL (432 g/d) and GP (428 g/d)
than BP (342 g/d) or FR (306 g/d). Nutrient digestibility was higher for goats fed AL and
GP, except Ca, which was higher for goats fed FR. Similarly, highest daily weight gain was
observed for goats fed AL (71 g/d) and GP (64 g/d) than either of BP (54 g/d) or FR (30
g/d). Overall, leaves and twigs from these tree fodders supported moderate growth, but may
not be advisable for maximum production.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=33
