Abstract:

The dry matter digestibility of cotton seed hulls increased from 15.5% to 38.8% and 29.7% on treatment with 4.0% sodium hydroxide and 5.0% potassium hydroxide respectively. Digestibility of the hulls also improved on ammoniation. Reduction in lignin contents was observed by these treatments. A two to three fold increase in non-protein nitrogen was also observed after treatment with ammonia.
