摘要

In this study, effect of two phytoadditive mixtures comprising Curcuma longa and Allium sativum (PAM-1) or Curcuma longa and Ocimum sanctum (PAM-2) were studied on nutrient utilization, growth, milk production, milk quality and milk fatty acids in Black Bengal goats (BBG). In this study, 21 female BBG with similar body weight (P = 0.853) and age (3–4 months) were split into three comparable groups namely, Control (no supplementation), T1 (15 g PAM-1 in per kg of dry matter of conc. mixture) and T2 (15 g PAM-2 in per kg of dry matter of conc. mixture). Statistical analysis revealed higher dry matter intake (P < 0.01) in T1 and T2 groups. Improved (P < 0.001) digestion of dry matter, crude protein, ether extract and organic matter were reported in T1 and T2 groups with similar fiber digestion. Improved final BW, ADG, FCR and BCS (P < 0.001) was found in treatment groups. Treatment groups had higher milk production (P < 0.001) and MBRT minutes with similar milk composition. Higher (P < 0.001) total unsaturated fatty acids, CLA contents with reduced SFA content was observed in treatment groups. Therefore, it may be concluded that inclusion of phytoadditive mixtures PAM-1 and PAM-2 (15 g/kg DM of conc. mixture) improves nutrient utilization, growth performance, milk production, milk quality and milk fatty acids in Black Bengal goats.
