Özet
The aim of this study was to determine the potential nutritive value of cotton gin trash obtained from five different companies using chemical composition and in vitro gas production technique. There was considerable variation among cotton gin trash obtained from five different companies in terms of chemical composition and in vitro gas production, metabolizable energy (ME) and organic matter digestibility (OMD). The crude protein (CP) contents of cotton gin trash ranged from 6.59% to 12.55% on dry matter (DM). Neutral detergent fibre (NDF) and acid detergent fibre (ADF) contents ranged from 49.24 to 62.22% on DM and 40.73 to 48.31% on DM respectively. The gas production ranged from 22.91 to 33.51 ml of 200 mg of DM after 24-h incubation. The ME and OMD contents of cotton gin trash ranged from 5.38 to 7.09 MJ/kg DM and 37.44 to 52.69% respectively. In conclusion, chemical characterization of CP, OMD and ME suggests that the cotton gin trash moderate level of CP concentration and was digestible therefore it could be said that cotton gin trash will provide roughage of an acceptable quality for ruminant animals.
