Forage potential of Erythrina abyssinica: Intake, digestibility and growth rates for stall-fed sheep and goats in southern Ethiopia
Feeding value of Erythrina abyssinica leaves were evaluated with native sheep and goats at Soddo, southern Ethiopia in a 21-day digestibility and 80- day growth trial. In the digestibility trial, wilted leaves of E. abyssinica were fed add libitum, while in the growth trial, animals were offered a b...
