Wild sunflower Tithonia diversifolia for sustainable small ruminant production in Nigeria
Keywords:
Wild sunflower, Tithonia diversifolia, sustainable, small ruminant production, Nigeria
Abstract
Livestock producers mostly desires cheaper feed ingredients that are readily available for the better parts of tropical season and have no competition with man’s dietary demands. Wild sunflower, a weed found growing uncultivated on abandoned/waste lands may be employed as livestock feeding resource, hence the need to embark on this study. According to the literature, it was observed that sunflower contains relatively high nutrient concentration which makes it a potential source and supplement of satisfactory quality protein for livestock feed formulation. Percentages vary from 17.20-20.07, 11.00-19.00, 4.00-38.00, 3.36-16.70 and 26.00-50.05 for CP, CF, EE, Ash and NFE respectively. It was also crystal clear that wild sunflower may be included in livestock feeding up to 10% without having any deleterious effect on nutrient digestibility, carcass and blood parameters. When processed, higher inclusion level may be employed up to 30%. Though, it contains anti-nutritional factors, yet the anti-nutritional factors present in Sunflower meals (SFMs) have their peculiarities in regulating rumen microbes by suppressing gram positive bacteria and enhancing the population of gram negatives in the rumen of small ruminants.
