Introduction and evaluation of Moringa for Biomass Production and Feed For Goat

Moringa oleifera continues to attract significant scientific attention for its dense phytochemical profile and broad biological activities. This peer-reviewed study examines animal feed properties of moringa leaves and seed oil, contributing to the growing evidence base supporting moringa in animal feed applications.

Experiments were conducted to study: (i) the growth and biomass production of Moringa oleifera (Moringaceae) planted at different spaces (40*20; 40*30; 40*20 cm); and (ii) using Moringa as sole feed for goats compared with Leucaena leucocephala. The different spacings did not affect plant height and the biomass yield of Moringa. The estimated biomass yield of was 8.6, 11.1 and 7.6 tonnes/ha (first cutting); 7.6, 7.9 and 6.3 tonnes/ha (second cutting) and 6.3, 6.3 and 4.9 (third cutting) for spacings of 40*20; 40*30; 40*40, respectively. Four local male goats with a average live weight of 14 kg were used in a 4*4 Latin Square arrangement to study the effect of feeding method (hanging or putti

Feeding Moringa to dairy cows on milk yield and milk flavor

Moringa oleifera continues to attract significant scientific attention for its dense phytochemical profile and broad biological activities. This peer-reviewed study examines dairy cattle properties of moringa plant material, contributing to the growing evidence base supporting moringa in animal feed applications.

Moringa oleifera , either fresh or ensiled, was compared with Elephant grass as a main feedstuff for dairy cows. To test the effects feed had on milk yield, milk composition, ration digestibility, and the organoleptic charac- teristics of milk, six lactating dairy cows were used in a Changeover 3×3 Latin Square experiment, replicated twice. With equal intake of metabolizable energy the intake of protein and fiber differed ( p<0.001) between all diets where fresh Moringa had the highest and the Elephant grass diet had the lowest intake. Compared with the control diet, ensiled Moringa had higher digestibility ( P<0.05) of both protein and fiber.
