Abstract :
Freshly-grated Coconut Meat (FGCM) and
Rice Bran (RB) combined with Napier grass were
utilized to compare the growth performance of goats fed
with fine forage and legumes roughages. Twenty-seven
doeling goats were used in the study, and fed with 0%,
10% and 15% levels of Freshly-grated Coconut Meat
and Rice Bran plus roughage in the rations. The Twofactor factorial experiment in Randomized Complete
Block Design with three replications were used to
analyze the gathered data. The results showed that
there was a significant difference among the type feed,
the intake of FGCM and RB, and total dry matter
intake are efficient for the diet of the goats. This is an
implication that feed for this kind of livestock using the
abovementioned raw materials are feasible, and
available.
