The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of treating rice straw bales by enzymes (ZAD) or effective microorganisms (EM) on milk production, milk composition, some blood parameters and live body weight of ewes and growth performance of their lambs and economic efficiency. Forty-five Ossimi ewes (41.05±2 kg live body weight and 3.5±0.3 years old) at last month of pregnancy were divided into three similar groups (15 each) according to their parity, body weight and age. The first group served as control (G1) and fed 60 % concentrate feed mixture (CFM) plus 40% untreated rice straw (RS). The second group (G2) fed 40% CFM plus 60% RS treated with ZAD and the third group (G3) fed 40% CFM plus 60% treated RS with EM for 105 days (feeding periods). Results showed that total milk yield was significantly (p<0.05) lower with both treated rice straw rations (G2 and G3) than control one (G1), being 32.78 and 32.22 vs 33.95 kg, respectively. However, milk protein was significantly (p<0.05) higher with G3 than G2 group and insignificantly higher than that of control group. While there were non-significant differences among the dietary treatments in respect of the other milk constituents. Lambs performance (birth weight, total gain, daily gain and weaning weight) did not significantly affected by dietary treatments, but estimates were slightly lower for the two tested rations than control one. Blood parameters not affected by ZAD or EM treatments. Economic efficiency of treated rice straw roups had better values than G1 (55.63 and 56.40 vs. 41.09%), respectively. The improved economic efficiency by treating rice straw with ZAD or EM due to decreasing feed cost for both tested rations compared to the control one.

The aim of this work was to study the effect of using biological treated Moringa stalks in feeding sheep on wool, skin and leather properties. Twenty-four male Barki lambs divided into three groups were used. All animals fed 2% of animal body weight on concentrate feed mixture, while the roughages fed ad libitum, thus the difference among groups was in roughage material. The control group fed Berssem hay, second group fed Moringa stalks treated with fungus (Trichoderma reesei) and third group fed Moringa stalks treated with yeast (Saccharomyces cervisiae). All skins and leathers were evaluated chemically and physically, in addition wool characteristics were determined for wool samples. The results indicated that majority of physical and chemical properties of skins, leathers and wool were not significantly differed among groups. Therefore, using Moringa stalks as roughage in rations not affected the quality of wool, skins or leathers, which are considered acceptable in different industrial purposes such as carpets, upper shoe, garment and lining.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of highor low-concentrate ratio in the present of sunflower oil (SFO) in all tested diets on rumen fermentation, nutrient utilization, and fatty acid profile in milk fat of lactating goats. Eighteen Zaribi goats (averaged 43 kg ± 1Kg body weight) were divided into three similar groups (6 goats each) for use in the feeding trial, which lasted 90 days. A randomized complete block designs was applied. Experimental rations comprised iso-nitrogenous and iso caloric based on concentrate feed mixture (CFM) and berseem hay in three roughage to concentrate ratios as follow: 50:50(T1), 55:45(T2) and60:40(T3). The three rations were supplemented with 30 g SFO /kg of DM intake The results showed that dry matter intake (P < 0.05) decreased with increasing the ratio of roughage by 26.9% and 41.0 % for T2 and T3 compared with T1, respectively. There were no significant differences among groups in DM digestibility, while OM and EE digestibility (P < 0.05) were higher in T1 ration (high concentrate) than both T2 and T3 rations (lower concentrate). All nutrients digestibility significantly (P < 0.05) increased with T1 (high concentrate and low roughage) than T3 (low concentrate and high roughage), while, no significant difference between T1 and T2 rations. On the other hand, TDN values did not affected by concentrate to roughage ratios. While, DCP decreased in T2 and T3 by increasing roughage ratio. High-roughage diet (T2 and T3) resulted in a lower rumen pH and higher total rumen VFA concentration, whereas, high concentrate diet increased rumen pH and decreased rumen VFA concentration. High-concentrate diet increased rumen ammonia-N (P < 0.05) and molar proportion of acetate to propionate. There were no significant differences in milk yield, as 4% fat corrected milk, among animals fed the tested rations supplemented with sunflower oil (SFO) as source of unsaturated fatty acids. The high roughage diets (T2 and T3) resulted in increase in linoleic (c18:2) and linolenic acid (c18:3) concentration by 69 and 45%, respectively compared with control (T1). Also, kids of T1 group had significant (P < 0.05) higher birth weight than other groups, while, there were no significant difference in daily gain among kids of the three groups. In conclusion, high concentrate diet could have better milk yield and protein percentage, while have less fat % and yield, compare to high roughage diet. Suckling kids could benefit more gain with dams fed high concentrate diet. Low roughage diet also develop better fat profile in milk. However, more studies are needed to identify the best economic combination for feeding dairy goats.
