دراسة مقارنة للقيمة العلفية لبعض الأنواع الرعوية تحت الشجيرية

الملخص EN

The study was carried out on four pastoral plant species of Chenopodiaceae family: Salsola vermiculata L., Atriplex leucoclada Boiss, Atriplex halimus L., and Atriplex canescens (purch) Nutt.

These species were chosen because of their pastoral importance.

The aim of this research is to analyze the chemical composition of some wood pastoral species to determine their nutrient content and feed importance by determining the content of these plants from dry matter, crude protein and cellular wall components (Neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and Acid detergent fiber (ADF).

It was found that S.

vermiculata has the highest content of crude protein (13.65%), which is higher than the limit required to cover the needs of preservative and feed productivity in ruminants, then A.

leucoclada and A.

canescens (10.61% and 10.60% respectively), and A.

halimus (10.23%) The A.

leucoclada came in front of species that contain both NDF (54.97%) and ADF (34.08%), where NDF is a good indicator of what animals prefer in feeding.
