    Author(s): Awadhesh Kishore*, Prakash Chandra and Bani Singh

    Present investigation is an effort to study the effect of manipulation of rumen fermentation using buffers (buffer feed technology) in crossbred calves on metabolism of the of the animals. Twelve crossbred calves (131-221d, 57.5-93.9 kg were selected and divided into three groups. One animal from each group was randomly allotted to one of the four treatments T1, T2, T3 and T4. They were kept on green grass mixture, wheat straw and concentrate as per NRC feeding standard. Concentrate included barley grain and mustard cake. Buffer in the form of sodium bicarbonate and magnesium oxide in combination at the rate of 0.00 and 0.00, 0.50 and 0.25, 1.00 and 0.50 and 1.50 and 0.75% of assumed DMI to be 4% of LW or 0.00 and 0.00, 0.02 and 0.01, 0.04 and 0.02 and 0.06 and 0.03% of LW were given T1, T2, T3 and T4, respectively. After 21 days of adaptation, a metabolic trial for 7 days was conduct.. View More»
