Abstract
Thirty Ossimi growing male lambs (5 months of age) with an average of live
body weight (LBW) 20.85 i2.26 kg were divided according to their LBW into two similar
groups. Group 1 fed control diet: concentrate feed mixture (CFM) plus bean straw (BS)
at 3.0 and 1% of their LBW, respectively. Group 2 fed CFM and whole maize silage at
2 % of their LBW (test group). The digestion coefficients of all nutrients and feeding
value of maize silage ration were higher significantly (P<0.01) than those of control
ration. Digestibility coefficients of ration containing maize silage were higher
significantly (p (0.01) in OM ,OM, CP,CF and NFE than control ration, while the
differences in both CP and NFE were not significant between diets. The feeding value
(TDN and DCP) of tested ration were higher significantly (W005) and (p < 0.01) than
control ration. Daily gain, feed and economical efficiency were higher with maize silage
group than control. Dressing percentage, prime cuts, weight constituents of longismus
dorsi and chemical composition of slaughtered lambs fed maize silage were better than
those fed control ration. It could be concluded that. it can partialy replace maize silage
by 33% instead of concentrate feed mixture in growing lamb diets to improve their
digestibility coefficients, nutritive value, daily gain, feed and economic efficiency and
their carcass characteristic
