Nutritive Value of Animal feed Ingredients for animal feed formulation – Pakistan Feedstuffs Database
Pakistan Feedstuffs Database. Nutritive Value of Animal feed Ingredients for animal feed formulation. AMD published this Animal Nutrition Book. This is research based data for livestock feeding and poultry feeeding. Besides poultry feed formulation it will also be helpful for dairy ration formulation.
US-Pakistan Partnership for Agricultural Market Development (AMD) activity (2015–2019) in collaboration with the Livestock & Dairy Development Board (LDDB) prepared this database. Samples were collected from major livestock hubs across Punjab and Sindh and analyzed at the high-tech testing laboratory of the University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences (UVAS).
Green Fodders & Silage
Green forages serve as the foundational roughage base for Pakistani livestock, offering varying levels of protein and moisture depending on their botanical classification. These are leguminous and non leguminous fodders.
Leguminous Forages are highly palatable, nitrogen-fixing crops that provide excellent protein levels during the winter and spring months like barseem mustard etc.
Non-Leguminous Forages & Grasses are energy dense bulk roughages like maize, oat, mott grass etc.
All nutrient values are expressed as a percentage of Dry Matter (% DM) except for DM itself. Energy values are listed in Mcal/kg.
