Palatability and Nutritive Value of Alpine Pasture in Kashmir Valley

Indian Journal of Animal Nutrition (2015)

H. A. Ahmed A.M. Ganai Yasir Afzal Parvaiz Ahmed Reshi Gowher Gul Sheikh

An experiment was conducted to assess the palatability and nutritive value of Alpine pasture of Kashmir Valley by indicator method in Corriedale sheep of about 34.80 kg average body weight. Average DM intake was 3.1% of the body weight. DCP and TDN content of the pasture grass were 13.45 and 68.84%, respectively. Crude fibre, calcium and phosphorus content in the pasture grass was 19.0, 0.70 and 0.42%, respectively. DCP, TDN, Ca and P intake were 145.0, 743.0, 7.55 and 4.53 g/d/animal, respectively. It was concluded that the nutrients provided by the pasture grass were sufficient to support a daily average gain of 100–150 g in the grazing sheep on that pasture.

A Pilot Study on Horti-Poultry Integrated Farming Model

Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology (2022)

Parvaiz Ahmed Reshi Akhtar Ali Khan Jahangeer A. Bhat Gowher Gull Sheikh F.A. Ahanger

Aims: Under the innovative concept of integrated farming, a trial using vanraja birds was conducted to find out the comparative performance of birds reared in confinement and outdoor in orchards. Study Design: 600 Vanraja birds of one month age were divided into two equal groups was conducted. One group (T1) that served as control was confined to shed and put on concentrate feeding and the another group (T2) were given free access to the KVK orchard during day and confined to shelter during night and were allowed to feed on herbage, insects and other scavenging resources during the day and in the evening hours were offered kitchen waste comprising of leftover rice, vegetable waste, egg shells, leftover pulses etc. collected from the hostels of Faculty of Veterinary Sciences & Animal Husbandry, Shuhama that are in the close vicinity of the Kendra. Methodology: The two groups of vanraja birds were compared with respect to body weight gain, egg production and mortality rate and at the end of 40 weeks trial the concentrate feeding cost in case of free range reared birds was reduced and there was less mortality, increase in the body weight and egg production with additional income from the existing orchards as compared to the control group kept confined to sheds Results and Conclusion: This innovative model of integrating the poultry with horticulture has been termed as horti-poultry model that proved to increase performance of birds with respect to decreased mortality, lower body weight (fat accumulation) that caused increased egg production and lower mortality. Further an additional income of 101850/hectare of land was observed. The model when replicated in fields is expected to be game changer in improving rural income by rearing birds in orchards.

Nutritional status of growing calves in district kupwara of Kashmir valley

Indian Journal of Animal Research (2013)

Harish S. Bhat F. A. Mattoo D. Medhi H. A. Ahmed Yasir Afzal

A field study was conducted in nine villages, three each from Kupwara, Handwara and Karnah tehsils of Kupwara district to find out the nutritional (DM, DCP, TDN) value of feeds and fodders, existing feeding practices and nutritional status of dairy growing calves. For this purpose fifteen farm families from each of nine villages were randomly selected for the study. Data was collected from the selected farmers through a common questionnaire. The average body weight (kg) of calves was 40.91±2.07, 37.76±1.08 and 37.87±1.23kg in Kupwara, Handwara and Karnah tehsils respectively. The daily intake of concentrate (kg) for calves was 0.95±0.15, 0.78±0.08 and 0.27±0.04 in Kupwara, Handwara and Karnah tehsils respectively. The daily intake of roughage for calves were 1.83±0.16, 1.81±0.11and 1.37±0.14 in Kupwara, Handwara and Karnah tehsil respectively. The ration of the surveyed calves was excess in DM by 30.6, 30.0 and 29.4 per cent for the respective tehsils. The daily intake of DCP for calves was deficit by 29.5, 29.6 and 78.4 per cent for the respective tehsils. The daily intake of TDN of calves was 2.70, 14.7 and 11.7 per cent excess than that of their nutrient requirements for the respective tehsils All the farmers were found to add the basal diet with common salt and none of the farmers supplement mineral mixture with the ration of the calves.

Macro and Micro-Mineral Status of Feeds and Fodders in Kupwara district of Jammu and Kashmir

Indian Journal of Animal Nutrition (2012)

Parvaiz Ahmed Reshi F. A. Mattoo Haidar Ali Ahmed A.M. Ganai Harish S. Bhat

A survey was conducted during November-March to study the mineral status of feeds and fodders available for dairy cattle in Kupwara district of Jammu and Kashmir. Nearly all the feedstuffs were found to contain adequate content of Ca (>0.30%). All concentrate feed ingredients were found to contain adequate levels of P (>0.25%) while dry roughages (except local grasses and wheat straw) were found to be deficient in P. Most of the feedstuffs (except local grasses and wheat straw) contained adequate levels of Mg (>0.20%). The dry roughages (paddy straw, local grasses, maize stover, wheat straw, dry oats hay) were deficient in Zn ( 50 ppm). Dry roughages possessed low Cu content (<8.00ppm) while concentrates contained adequate levels of Cu. Dry roughages (except oats hay) also had lower Mn levels (40 ppm) while concentrates contained adequate levels. Hence trace mineral contents of locally available feeds and fodders particularly dry roughages were below critical levels and their supplementation is needed in dairy cattle of this district.

Performance of growing sheep on Azolla based diets

Indian Journal of Animal Research (2016)

H. A. Ahmed A.M. Ganai Yasir Afzal Beigh Gowher Gull Sheikh Parvaiz Ahmed Reshi

20 male Corriedale sheep (3 months of age) were divided into 5 equal groups viz, T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 and fed on measured quantity of concentrate mixture containing 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24% azolla replacing 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% linseed cake respectively. Measured quantity of good quality oat hay was offered to all the groups as per their body weight to meet their requirement. Highest body weight was observed in T1 group and it had no significant difference with T2 group, but it had significant difference with T3, T4 and T5 groups. T2 group had significant difference with T5 group, but with other groups it had no significant difference in final body weight. Lowest body weight was observed in T5 group but it had no significant difference with T3 and T4 groups. Highest DM digestibility was observed in T2 group and lowest DM digestibility was observed in T5. But no significant difference was observed in DM digestibility among the groups. Lowest FCR was observed in T1 (control) followed by T2 group and they had significant difference with T3, T4 and T5 group, but no significant difference was observed between T1 and T2 group. Lowest cost of feeding per kg of gain was observed in T2 group and it had significant difference with T3, T4 and T5 group but not with T1 group (control). No significant difference was also observed among T3, T4 and T5 group but significantly higher cost of feeding per kg of gain than T1 (control) group was observed in T3, T4 and T5 group. It was concluded that azolla can be added in the diet of growing sheep at 6% level replacing linseed cake without any adverse effect on the performance of the animals.

International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences (2018)

Irfan Ahmad Daraz H. A. Ahmed Manzoor A. Ganai Immad A. Shah MUDAIR AHMAD BHAT

A study was undertaken in two phases to evaluate the effects of feeding fungal treated and ensiled apple pomace paddy straw based complete diet in the ration of eighteen female Corriedale sheep divided into three equal groups as per CRD. In phase-I, screening of two fungal strains namely Trichoderma viridae and Pleorotus florida, on the basis of their effects on chemical composition of paddy straw when grown for 14, 21 and 28 days respectively, was undertaken to select the best suited fungi for treatment of paddy straw to be used in experimental trial on sheep. Simultaneously, paddy straw was ensiled with apple pomace in different proportions to select the best silage in terms of chemical composition, to be used for feeding of the experimental animals. In this phase, chemical analysis of all the feed ingredients and experimental feeds was also carried out. Three complete rations were formulated to meet the nutrient requirements of experimental animals. In control group (T1), roughage portion included untreated paddy straw, while in the treatment group T2, roughage portion was replaced with Trichoderma viridae treated paddy straw. In T3, roughage portion was replaced with apple pomace ensiled paddy straw. In phase-II, a 90 day growth trial was conducted with a 7 day metabolism trial at the end.
