Description
Summary:A study was conducted to analyse the proximate principles of swill materials like chicken waste, hotel waste, vegetable waste and pooled sample. The crude protein (%) contents varied significantly and the values were 25.26, 9.60, 9.76 and 14.80 respectively. The content of other principles like moisture, crude fiber, ether extract, NFE and AIA varied significantly among the sources. However, total ash content was similar in all the sources.
