Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effects of acorn and acorn+zeolite mixture added to dairy cattle ration and alfalfa hay on in-vitro methane production, in-vitro organic matter digestion, metabolic energy value, rumen ammonia nitrogen and nutrient composition. Sixteen groups were formed by adding 0% (control), 2.5%, 5%, 10% acorn in combination with 2.5% zeolite to alfalfa hay and dairy cattle ration. Feed samples added with different levels of acorn and acorn-zeolite mixture were a incubated in glass tubes for 24 hours using in-vitro gas production technique. After 24 hours, methane and carbon dioxide gas levels were determined by a methane measuring device. The lowest methane production for dairy cattle ration and alfalfa hay were observed in the group added with 10% acorn (P<0.05). Along with the levels of acorn, ammonia nitrogen values were decreased, while in-vitro organic matter digestion and me tabolic energy values increased (P<0.001) fordairy cattle ration and alfalfa hay. Consequently, it was concluded that, acorn might increase the by-pass proteins, in-vitro organic matter digestion and metabolic energy value by decreasing the degradation of feed protein in rumen, and decrease methane production if it is added in a high level. Besides, effects of acorn and zeolite on animal performance should be investigated by in-vivo studies.

Özet

Bu çalışma, süt sığırı rasyonu (SSR) ve yonca kuru otuna (YKO) farklı seviyelerde ilave edilen meşe palamudu, meşe palamudu + zeolit’in metan (CH 4 ) gazı oluşumu, in vitro organik madde sindirimi (İVOMS) , metabolik enerji ( ME) değeri ve rumen amonyak azotu ( NH 3 -N ) üzerine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. YKO ve SSR ’na %0 (kontrol), %2.5, %5, %10 meşe palamudu ve aynı seviyelere %2.5 zeolit ilave edilerek toplam 16 grup oluşturulmuştur. Farklı seviyelerde meşe palamudu ve meşe palamudu + zeolit ilave edilmiş SSR ve YKO in vitro gaz üretim tekniği ile 24 saatlik inkubasyona bırakılmıştır. İnkubasyon sonunda oluşan toplam gaz içerisindeki CH 4 ve karbondioksit (CO 2 ) gazı oranları özel bir cihaz ile ölçülmüştür. SSR ve YKO için en düşük CH 4 %10 meşe palamudu grubundan elde edilmiştir (P<0.001). SSR’u ve YKO’na ilave edilen palamut seviyesiyle orantılı olarak 24. saat rumen sıvısı NH 3 -N değeri azalırken İVOMS ve ME değerleri artmıştır (P<0.001). Sonuç olarak meşe palamudu ilavesinin, rumende yıkılan protein miktarını azaltarak, by pass proteinleri, İVOMS ve ME değerini artırabileceği ve yüksek düzeyde kullanıldığında CH 4 gazı üretimini azaltabileceği kanısına varılmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları dikkate alındığında meşe palamudu ve zeolitin hayvan performansı üzerine etkilerinin anlaşılmasında in vivo çalışmalara ihtiyaç olduğu söylenebilir.
