EFFECT OF USE FENUGREEK SEEDS (Trigonella foenum-graecum) ON SOME SEMEN CHARACTERSTICS OF AWASSI RAMS IN WINTER SEASON.
This study aimed to know the effect of three rations contains same crude protein and metabolizable energy but differs in Fenugreek seeds percentage( 0 , 5 and 10 %), Fifteen Awassi rams (2-3 years old), were randomly divided into three equal groups (5 rams/group) weighting 50-55 Kg during winter sea...

| Summary: | This study aimed to know the effect of three rations contains same crude protein and metabolizable energy but differs in Fenugreek seeds percentage( 0 , 5 and 10 %), Fifteen Awassi rams (2-3 years old), were randomly divided into three equal groups (5 rams/group) weighting 50-55 Kg during winter season from (15/11/2011 - 15/2/2012). Results showed that feeding of Fenugreek seeds had a significant effect (P ≤ 0.05) on semen ejaculation volume, semen consistency ,mass and individual motility of spermatozoa, percentages of live and dead spermatozoa , sperm abnormality .However there were no significant effect (P ≤ 0.05) on total sperm concentration / ml compared with the control group rams. |
