Table 3.

BW, DMI, and growth performance in lambs fed four experimental diets based on SBP (n = 10)

Items Treatment1 SEM Contrasts
Control 8SBP 16SBP 24SBP Linear Quadratic
Initial BW, kg 22.5 22.7 22.4 22.2 0.53 0.840 0.593

SBP = sea buckthorn pomace.

1Control = 0% of DM SBP, 8SBP = 7.8% of DM SBP, 16SBP = 16.0% of DM SBP, 24SBP = 23.5% of DM SBP.

2Feed efficiency = ADG/DMI.
