Effects of dietary brown propolis on nutrient intake and digestibility in feedlot lambs
The present study tested brown propolis in crude or extract form as a feed supplement for feedlot lambs to identify the type that most improves in vivo nutrient digestibility. Digestibility was assessed by both total fecal collection and internal markers

Dietary Cassava Roots Modified by Heat-Moisture Treatment Improve Performance, Glucose Metabolism, and Carcass Yield in Fattening Goats. [PDF]
Background Heat‐moisture–treated cassava roots (HMC) offer a promising nutritional strategy to enhance energy supply and nutrient utilization in fattening goats, primarily by modifying the starch structure to increase the resistant starch content. However, a comprehensive evaluation of its effects on performance, metabolism, and meat quality remains ...

Effect of Supplemented Spent Mushroom Substrate (Pleurotus ostreatus) on Growth Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, Nitrogen Balance, and Blood Metabolites of Goats. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of Pleurotus ostreatus spent mushroom substrate (SMS), supplemented with 4% urea and 18% molasses, as a partial replacement for Napier grass. Four dietary treatments were formulated with 70% roughage (Napier grass) and 30% concentrate, replacing Napier grass with SMS at 0%, 20%, 35%, or 50% inclusion levels.
