ABSTRACT: The experiment was conducted at the Laboratory of Animal Nutrition Department in Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh with growing male Black Bengal goats. The aim of present study was to observe the effects of feeding different forms of diet on the performance of Black Bengal goat. A ration was prepared in three different forms such as A- green grass + concentrate mixture in conventional form, B- green grass + concentrate in pellet form and C- both grass and concentrate in compound pellet form according to NRC (1981) nutrient requirements......

ABSTRACT: Isolation and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Salmonella Species from live and dead chickens in Gwagwalada and Kwali area councils of Abuja, was studied to establish the prevalence and possible treatment regimen forSalmonella in the study area. Five hundred (500)samples of bothfaecal (180) and visceral organs (320) were collected from chickens in poultry farms and slaughter houses between Mayand August 2015.Salmonellae were isolated, identified and characterized using standard methods.........
