✦ Synopsis

An experiment was conducted on 12 cows and 12 buffaloes for six weeks. These animals were further divided into four groups each having three animals. The four treatments were concentrate mixture with green grass (TI), concentrate mixture without green grass (T2), cotton seed with green grass (T3), and cotton seed without green grass (T.,). The DCP requirements were met as per Sen and Ray (1971) feeding standards. At the end of each period, metabolism trials were conducted by conventional method. Nitrogen,phosphorous and calcium balance were positive in all the treatments for all the groups of buffaloes and cows. Treatment TI and T2 have increased the milk yield but resulted in decrease in fat, while reverse was true for treatment T:, and T4.
