Selecting For Food-Feed Traits in Early and late Maturing Lentil Genotypes (Lens culinaris)
To explore genetic and environmental variability of food-feed traits in lentil genotypes, straws of 78elite genotypes and 4 checks of early and late maturing lentil types were evaluated for their nutritive value and potential ...
Influence of Varietal Selection and Treatments on the Nutritive Value of Selected Pulse Crop Residue
The current study was aimed to analyze the utilization of crop residue in the mixed farming
systems of Ethiopia, to explore the possibility of improving straw yield and nutritive value of
chickpea, faba bean and lentil ...
Can ruminant metabolizable energy of barley, chickpea and lentil straw be predicted using chemical composition?
This study attempted to generate simple and robust models to predict metabolizable energy (ME) content of barley, chickpea and lentil straw using chemical composition. Crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), ...
Integrating straw yield and quality into multi‐dimensional improvement of lentil (Lens culinaris)
BACKGROUND
Lentil straw is an important source of fodder for livestock in Africa, South Asia and the Middle East. However, improvement programmes of lentil do not pay attention to straw traits, neither are straw traits ...
Improving the Nutritive Value of Cereal and Pulse Straws Using Dung Ash and Wood Ash Treatments
The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of treatment of straws with cow dung ash treatment
and wood ash on their nutritive value. Accordingly, straws of barley, wheat, chickpea, faba bean and
lentil were treated ...
