Enhancing the nutritional quality and digestibility of citronella waste (Cymbopogon nardus) for ruminant feed through ammoniation and fermentation techniques [PDF]
Background and Aim: Citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus) waste, produced by distilling citronella to produce essential oil, has a high potential for use as animal feed. However, the presence of high lignin content could limit its digestibility, prompting

Mutation of Cellulose Synthase Gene Improves the Nutritive Value of Rice Straw [PDF]
Rice straw is an important roughage resource for ruminants in many rice-producing countries. In this study, a rice brittle mutant (BM, mutation in OsCesA4, encoding cellulose synthase) and its wild type (WT) were employed to investigate the effects of a ...

A Study on the Digestion of Cellulose in Poultry
Abstract MORRIS, Thompson and Heller (1932) reported that the amount of fiber in a chick ration could be increased to as much as 8 to 9% of the ration without harmful effect on the chick mortality, rate of growth, feed consumption, age of maturity and egg production. Davis and Briggs (1947) described that by the addition of 5 to 15% of cellulose to a
