Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how sheep digest and consume mango by-products, specifically peels and seed kernels, in various diets including a control and combinations with urea block.
- Mango peels had low crude protein content and high levels of neutral detergent fiber, while seed kernels had a higher fat content and varying tannin levels.
- The best voluntary feed intake occurred with the combination of mango residues and urea block, suggesting potential benefits for future growth experiments using these by-products.
