Effect of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and Lablab (Lablab purpureus) hay supplementation on nitrogen and energy utilization in calves fed tef (Eragrostis tef) straw
A metabolism trial on nitrogen and energy utilization was conducted using thirty male crossbred calves blocked by age and randomly assigned to one of the dietary treatment consisting of ad libitum tef straw alone or supplemented with three levels (0.5, 1 and 1.5 percent of the body weight) of cowpea...
