Abstract:

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of feeding varying levels of lablab hay on carcass characteristics of Red Sokoto bucks. Twenty (20) male, non castrate Red Sokoto bucks of average initial weight range of 9.30-11.87± 0.1kg, were used for the experiment. They were randomly assigned to five treatment diets containing lablab hay at 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% levels of inclusion, respectively. The bucks were individually pen-fed with the concentrate diets at 2% body weight in a Randomized Complete Block Design for a period of 90 days, before they were slaughtered. Results revealed

Abstract:

Lablab purpureus which may yield over 60 and 15 tonnes ha-1 of fresh and dry herbage respectively can be conserved as silage during the rainy season for feeding ruminants in the dry season. A two-year study evaluated the effect of four forage conservation methods (3-silage and 1-hay) on the proximate parameters of conserved lablab. Minimal spoilage losses due to termites was observed in silage produced on bare ground surface. The proximate parameters were more favourable in the case of lablab silage than hay with crude protein concentration (14.7%) being 80% higher in the silage than in hay (8

The results showed that the brown Lablab beans had outperformed other variants according to their nutritional value and flavonoid content with outstanding DPPH scavenging activity. However, the black beans also showed good bioactive contents through their total phenolic percentage with decent reducin

Abstract:

Cotton producers in Australia are interested in including legume green manure crops in their farming systems. Lablab and lucerne are 2 crops that have been considered for this role. The object of this study was to determine their biomass production, nitrogen fixation, water use and water-use efficiency within a 1-year out-of-cotton rotation. Both species were grown under full irrigation, and partial irrigation, where periods of moisture stress occurred. During the period of the rotation, lablab produced more biomass and fixed more nitrogen than lucerne. Its biomass production was increased (fr

Abstract:

The lablab bean or ‘Kacang sepat’ is a food crop originating from India and is commonly found in tropical areas such as Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines due to its adaptability. However, in Malaysia, lablab is grown as a backyard crop, and the area cultivated with this crop is still limited. Lablab has the potential to become a commercial vegetable crop in Malaysia due to its high protein content (18–25%). Therefore, to increase lablab cultivation, good quality seeds are a prerequisite. A key factor in the production of quality seeds is the ideal harvest time of the pods during seed dev
