NUTRITIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF TWO TROPICAL AQUATIC WEEDS FOR RUMINANTS

NUTRITIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF TWO TROPICAL AQUATIC WEEDS FOR RUMINANTS

The nutritive values of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) and water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes) for ruminants were evaluated using chemical and mineral analyses, ensiling, in vitro and in situ digestion studies. The aquatic weeds contained lower levels of dry matter (DM), but higher levels of CF...
