Three levels of crude protein 13.2, 15.4 and 17.7%, three levels of tallow 0, 3 and 6% and two sources of protein, meat and bone meal (MBM) and soybean meal (SBM) were compared in 3 × 3 × 2 factorial design using 216 Holstein type male calves. The calves were weaned at 3 wk of age and slaughtered at 113 kg liveweight. Twenty-four control calves were fed whole milk at 12% of body weight. Fat levels in the concentrate did not affect the age at slaughter but the 17.7% protein level decreased market age compared with the 13.2% protein diet from 131 days to 120 days and decreased total concentrate consumption by 25.7 kg. MBM gave paler carcasses as determined by reflectance than SBM as the supplementary protein source. The milk-fed calves were slaughtered at 102 days of age compared to an average of 126 days for the concentrate-fed calves; the respective daily gains, carcass yields, and muscle color scores were 0.72 and 0.55 kg; 56.5 and 50.5%; 58.8 and 48.4. Tallow was not utilized efficiently as an energy source by the young calf and MBM can replace completely SBM in concentrate for veal calves. A level of protein of 13.2% in the concentrate produced lower, but comparable, performance than did 17.7% protein.

 Best diet of the fish is the sole of production of aquaculture. Growth performance of Clarias gariepinus on the basis of formulated feed supply was carried out from 7th March to 6th May, 2019 in the laboratory of P.G.Campus, Biratnagar in which 130 juveniles (each of 10±0.11 g.) of catfish were cultured in 13 aquaria feeding with treatment diets having crude protein level 35%, 40%, 45% and 50% for treatment and commercial diet for control. There are no significant differences between the water quality parameters and body weight gain (p>0.05) in all treatments. The highest body weight gain (7.31±0.11 g; 65.20%) and SGR (13.051±1.15 g) was observed in fish fed with T C (45% protein level). This value was lowered than value of control(C) i.e. 7.59±0 g; 69.88% and 13.55±0 g respectively. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) was best (13.28±1.89 g) in T D (50% protein level feed). Its value was larger (7.52±1.11 g) in T C than C (7.15±0 g). Mortality rate was highest in T C and C i.e. 30% and lowest in T A and T B i.e. 23.33%. Weight gain of the fish increased with increasing protein level in diet till crude protein level 45% then it was dropped at the diet with protein level 50%. The best weight gain was observed in 7th week having crude protein level 45%. The diet with protein level 45% is suggested for farmers concerning the fish (Clarias gariepinus) in the aquaculture.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the growth of and feed utilization by Boer x Kacang crosses goats fed on total mixed ration differing in protein and energy levels. Four total mixed rations combination were formulated to contain 16 and 18% crude protein and 2650 and 2850 Kcal ME/ kg DM (dried matter) energy density. Twenty-eight male Boer x Kacang crosses goats (14.5 ± 1.14 kg) and of age ranging from 4 to 5 months were randomly allocated to one of these four TMRs (total mixed rations) (7 animals/TMR). The effects of dietary treatment were assessed using the general linear model and significance of the diet effects was detected using Duncan’s multiple range test. Dry matter intake increased as metabolizable energy density of diet increased from 2650 to 2850 Kcal/kg DM, but it is not affected by increasing crude protein level from 16 to 18%. The average daily gains were not improved (P>0.05) as the crude protein levels and metabolizable energy density of diet increased. Crude protein levels and ME density did not affect (P>0.05) the DM, OM and energy digestibility, but NDF digestibility was affected by the ME density of diets (P<0.05). Daily N intakes were greater (P<0.0%) in goats received diets higher in the crude protein and metabolizable energy levels. At this high rate of feed intake this type of goats are able to gain optimally when offered feed with crude protein level of 16% and metabolizable energy density of 2850 Kcal/kg DM.
