ABSTRACT

Twelve adult dry cross-bred cows of about 61/2 years of age were divided randomly into two groups. Group-1 and-2 were fed restricted amount of wheat bran and defatted rice bran respectively to meet CP requirement for maintenance alongwith ad-libitum wheat straw and 1 kg of available green fodder for every alternate day to supply carotene requirement for 16 weeks.
