Effect of supplementation of maize stover with foliage of various tropical multipurpose trees and Lablab purpureus on intake, rumen fermentation, digesta kinetics and microbial protein supply of sheep
Foliage of four multipurpose trees (Calliandra calothyrsus, Chamaecytisus palmensis, Leucaena diversifolia and Vernonia amygdalina) and a woody leguminous perennial (Lablab purpureus) were evaluated for their potential as protein supplements for sheep fed maize stover ad libitum.
