Abstract

Effect of different types of organic manure on growth response and herbage yield of WAD goat fed Panicum maximum was investigated. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block design containing four treatments. Pouliry manure, swine dung and cattle dung were applied prior to planting of Panicum тaxiтuт. The organic manures were supplied through top dressing method 2 weeks prior to planting. Data were collected on the chemical composition herbage yield and growth parameters of the grass. Results showed that chemical composition of Panicum maximum fertilized with different organic manure were significantly different (P
