In: Egyptian journal of nutrition and feeds 2006.v.9(2)Summary: The main objectives of the present experiment were to investigate the effect of biological treatments on chemical composition and utilizability of treated sugar beet pulp (SBP) in sheep ration. Twenty crossbred Suffolk male lambs. 3 months old and mean body weight 21.4 kg were distributed into four similar groups. The treated SBP was to replace 0, 50. 75 or 100% of corn grain included in the concentrate feed mixture fed to growing lamb groups TI, T2, T3 and T4 respectively. The experimental period lasted for 120 days. Results indicated that DM, OM and CF digestibility values ofT4 were significantly highest, while highest NFE digestibility was that of T3. No significant differences were recorded for CP or EE digestibility for different feeding treatments. Different lamb groups showed positive nitrogen balance. Total body gains, mean daily gains and DMI as well fed efficiency values were very similar for different treatments. Ho~ever the least feed costlkg gain was that of lamb treatment (4).
