| Abstract | ||
| Laying manure (LM) was added at 35% to plant crops and by-products to formulate 8 different types of complete silages. By evaluating these silages with Zaraibi bucks, it was noticed that the tested silage containing 30% carrot aerial parts (CAP) plus 30% clover was of the lowest quality. Whereas that containing 30% mallow aerial parts + 30% CAP was of the lowest consumption and the quickly damage. But those containing 60% potato aerial parts or 60% sugar beat aerial parts were the best concerning feed consumption (for their high quality), digestibility, and feeding value, which consequently was reflected positively on the rumen and blood parameters. Therefore, it is recommended to make more usefulness of field wastes (particularly from potato and sugar beat) and poultry farms by making high-quality silage of complete feeding value required for ruminants. | ||
