CAN DIETARY DRIED OREGANO IMPROVE THE DIGESTIBLE NUTRIENT INTAKE OF GROWING GOATS?
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary dried orégano on the intake of dry matter and digestible nutrients in growing goats. Fifteen 7-month old male goats were fed on diets with 0, 10 and 50 g kg-1 of dried oregano based on dry matter (DM). A completely randomized desig...

Fifteen 7-month old male goats were fed on diets with 0, 10 and 50 g kg-1 of dried oregano based on dry matter (DM). A completely randomized design was used, and each animal was assigned to one pen and treatment (3 treatments x 5 replicates) for 45 days. Voluntary intake of DM and nutrient digestibility were measured using acid insoluble ash as an indigestible marker. Daily weight gains were 146, 126 and 122 g d-1 per treatment (P = 0.08). A positive effect on digestible nutrient intake was obtained with both oregano concentrations. Linear and quadratic effects were obtained in the digestible neutral detergent fibre (NDF) and the other nutrient intakes, respectively.
