    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]        ABSTRACTIn the dry season harvest residue and grasses like maize Stover, sorghum Stover, elephant grass etc. are being used to feed ruminant animal. The crop residue can be fed to the animal directly, as they are collected from the farm or chopped into pieces in such way that it will be palatable for the ruminant animal. The current practice by the small and medium scale livestock farmers to collect and cut the crop residue using machetes, knives, sickle and other crude method is v ... Continue reading---
