Abstract:

Camel milk production and marketing within the peri-urban areas within pastoral areas is emerging and has high potential due to sendentarization and urbanization of an increasing number of local inhabitants. Performance of grazing camels in these areas is poor due to inadequate feed resources, particularly during the dry season. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of supplementing lactating camels with milled <em>Acacia tortilis </em>pods and ‘Chalbi salt’ on milk yield, calf growth and its economic potential in the peri-urban area of Marsabit town, Ke

Abstract:

Kenya has about 52 species of acacia which possess tannins. Little effort has been made to process the acacia species pods to add value to their nutritional potential. It is in this aspect that the study intended to assess the Feed Intake (FI) and Feed Conversion Efficiency (FCE)of growing Small East Africa Goats fed on mature green pods of Acacia brevispi ca, melliferaand tortilis processed differently as supplements in Emining ward within Mogotio SubCounty in Baringo County, Kenya A total of 20 bucks 4-5 months old weighing 12kg ± 1.05 were purchased.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTThe fate of mature Acacia tortilis pods on the tree and ground and A. nilotica pods on the ground were investigated at a site in South Africa. Pods on Acacia trees were browsed only by giraffe whereas pods on the ground were browsed by kudu, impala, steenbok and duiker. In the absence of giraffe most A. tortilis pods fell from the tree to the ground. When giraffe were present they consumed most A. tortilis pods at tree level. Bruchids infested 21.6–54.0% of seeds within pods on the tree. Once fallen, in the absence of browsing ungulates, A. tortilis and A. nilotica pod and seed disappe

ABSTRACTForty Menz rams weighing 20 to 22 kg and aged 13 to 18 months were individually offered 1·0 kg/day chopped maize stover and one of five supplements over a 70-day growth trial followed by a 10-day metabolism trial. The amounts of supplement offered were designed to supply 4·4 g nitrogen per day and with stover, sufficient nutrients to allow growth rates of 50 g/day. The control supplement, 80 g dry matter (DM) per day extracted noug (Guizotia abyssinica) meal, was compared with 194 to 212 g DM per day of fruits (pods (carpels) with seeds) of Acacia tortilis, A. albida, A. nilotica and A

Abstract:

Acacia trees are keystone species in many arid environments, supporting high levels of plant and animal diversity. In Israel, the populations of Vachellia (formerly Acacia) tortilis (Forssk.) and V. raddiana (Savi) are declining at an alarming rate. Severe infestations by bruchid beetles (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) are among the major causes of seed mortality, but additional environmental stressors can reduce the defence level of the seeds, exacerbating their susceptibility to predators. In a hyper-arid desert ecosystem affected by two major oil spills (in 1975 and 2014), we quantified seed pr

Abstract:

The study was conducted to evaluate the anti-nutritional properties of four selected browse pods; Faidherbia albida, Vachellia tortilis, Acacia nilotica and Piliostigma reticulatum in a semi-arid zone of Nigeria. The browse pods were sourced from the rangelands in Jigawa and Yobe states. The results revealed significant differences (P<0.05) in the values of Oxalate, Phytate, Tannin and Saponin evaluated. The study therefore concluded that variations exist among the selected browse pods analyzed in terms of anti-nutritive properties; however they were all within the recommended requirement f
