Effect of diets differing in rumen soluble nitrogen on utilization of poor-quality roughage by sheep Mentz, A.M.; Van Niekerk, Willem A.; Hassen, Abubeker; Coertze, R.J. (Roelof Johannes); Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute) (South African Society for Animal Science, 2015-12-14)This study investigated the effects of replacing rapid-release nitrogen (N) from urea with a graded level of slow-release N (Optigen® II) source on intake, digestibility, rumen fermentation and microbial protein synthesis, ...

Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute); Hassen, Abubeker; Odongo, N.E. (Pakistan Agricultural Scientist's Forum, 2014)This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cellulase and xylanase plus enzymes on in vitro ruminal fermentation of Eragrostis curvura hay, maize stover and a total mixed ration (TMR) at six levels of application. The ...

Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute); Hassen, Abubeker (Asian-Australasian Association of Animal Production Societies, 2015-02)Nineteen tanniferous browse plants were collected from South Africa to investigate their digestibility, gas production (GP) characteristics and methane production. Fresh samples were collected, dried in forced oven, and ...

Chimsa, M.B.; Mummed, Yesihak Yusuf; Kurtu, Mohamed Y.; Leta, Mengistu U.; Hassen, Abubeker; Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute) (Pakistan Agricultural Scientists Forum, 2013)A study on forage preference of Camel calves from 6 to 12 months of age was conducted in eastern Ethiopia. Data were collected at an interval of 50 minutes for each calf for 15 consecutive days in dry and wet season. Based ...

Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute); Hassen, Abubeker (CSIRO Publishing, 2014-07)This study characterised 16 tropical perennial grass species in terms of in vitro methane output and related their digestibility and rumen fermentation with methane output. The grass samples were collected, dried in a ...

Hassen, Abubeker; Theart, J.J.F.; Van Niekerk, Willem A.; Adejoro, Festus Adeyemi; Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute) (CSIRO, 2016-02)An in vitro gas production study was conducted to evaluate the potential of six browse species (high, medium and low condensed tannin concentrations) collected from the Kalahari Desert as antimethanogenic additives to an ...

Theart, Jacobus Johannes Francois; Hassen, Abubeker; Van Niekerk, Willem A.; Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute) (Escola Superior de Agricultura, 2015-11)The nutritional value of browse foliage from the Thorny Kalahari Dune Bush veld of South Africa is not characterized. Most of this browse species is rich in tannin, but still palatable, and is consumed by ruminants during ...

Gemeda, B.S. (Belete Shenkute); Hassen, Abubeker (Escola Superior de Agricultura, 2015-01)In recent decades supplementation of animal feeds with exogenous fibrolytic enzymes has substantially improved digestibility and animal performance. However, information related to associated methane production is limited ...
