Abstract:
This experiment was conducted to assess the effect of feeding a herb (Allium sativum) and probiotic (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) alone or in combination with ground nut straw based complete feed on haemato-biochemical parameters in Sonadi sheep. A feeding trial was conducted for 90 days in which four complete diets were prepared as T1 (basal roughage + concentrate mixture), T2 (basal roughage + concentrate mixture + Allium sativum @ 3% of feed), T3 (basal roughage + concentrate mixture + probiotic (Saccharomyces cerevisiae @ 3g/head/d) and T4 (basal roughage + concentrate mixture + Allium sativum @ 1.5% of feed + probiotic (Saccharomyces cerevisiae @ 1.5g/head/d) using roughage and concentrate ratio of 60:40. Sixteen Sonadi rams (10-12 month of age) were randomly selected and distributed in four groups of four rams each. In this study, haemato-biochemical parameters were investigated viz. haemoglobin (g/dl), packed cell volume (%), blood glucose (mg/dl), total serum protein (g/dl), blood urea nitrogen (mg/dl) and serum creatinine (mg/dl) and showed non-significant effect of garlic and yeast supplementation in Sonadi rams.
