Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the optimal CP level in growing goat kids. Forty male goats were divided into four treatment groups fed diets containing CP 12, 14, 16, and 18% of concentrate feed, and rice straw, respectively. Results are summarized as follows. Average daily gain’s(ADG) of groups fed diets with CP 14% and CP 18% were 84.0 and 83.0g/d each, which were higher than group fed diets with CP 12% grown at 69.2g of ADG(P<0.05). Daily feed intakes of concentrate and rice straw were 590g and 45g each and there was no difference found between treatments. The amounts of feed required for body weight gain(g) were similar in the range of 7.0-7.3 for groups fed diets with CP 14%, 16% or 18%. But the group fed diets with CP 12% required somewhat more feed for gain at 8.8g. Dressing percentage of groups fed diet with CP 12% was 61.7%, which was higher than groups fed diets with CP 14% or CP 18%(P<0.05) but similar to that fed diet with CP 16%. Meat percentage from goats fed diet with CP 16% was 51.7%, which were higher than goats fed diets with CP 12% or CP 14%(P<0.05). Fat deposition of CP 12% group was higher than the other groups(P<0.05). Percentage of bone weight averaged 17.0% without any difference among treatment groups. Shear force and cooking loss, which are physical properties of goat meats, were lower in CP 16% and CP 14% groups than the other two groups. Water holding capacity of goats meats from CP 16% was higher than those from CP 18% group(P<0.05). Results from panel test showed that juiciness of meats from CP 16% group was higher than those from CP 12% group(P<0.05). Meats from CP 16% also was tested to be more tender than meats from the other groups. Results from this work suggest that the optimum crude protein level in growing goat's concentrate is 14-16% and that increase above this level seems not to improve meat production.
본 시험은 사료의 조단백질 수준이 육성기 흑염소의 발육과 육질에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 하기 위하여 흑염소 육성축 수컷 40두를 공시하여 조단백질 수준을 각각 달리하여 2004년 4월 19일부터 2004년 9월 13일까지 시험을 실시하였으며 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 일당증체량은 CP 14%, CP 18%구가 각각 84.0, 83.0g으로 CP 12%구 69.2g 보다 높았으며(P<0.05) CP 16%구는 80.9g으로 비슷한 경향이었다. 1일 사료섭취량은 농후사료와 볏짚 각각 590g, 45g 내외로 처리구간에 비슷하였고 증체 g당 사료요구율은 CP 14%, 16%, 18%구간에는 7.0-7.3으로 비슷하였으나 CP 12%구는 다소 높은 경향이었다. 도체율은 CP 12%구가 61.7%로 CP 14와 CP 18%구 보다 높았으나(P<0.05) CP 16%구와는 비슷하였다. 정육율은 CP 16%가 51.7%로 CP 12와 CP 14%구 보다 높았다(P<0.05). 지방율은 CP 12%구가 12.8% 높았으며(P<0.05) 뼈율은 17.0% 내외로 처리구간에 비슷하였다. 고기의 물리적 특성인 전단력과 가열 감량은 CP 16%구와 CP 14%구가 다른 처리구보다 다소 낮은 경향이었고 보수력은 CP 16%구가 CP 18%구 보다 높았다(P<0.05). 관능검사결과 다즙성은 CP 16%구가 CP 12%구 보다 우수하였으며(P<0.05) 연도도 다른 처리구에 비해 우수한 경향이었다. 이러한 결과를 종합적으로 고려할 때 육성기 흑염소의 발육과 육질개선을 위한 사료의 적정 조단백질 수준은 14-16%가 적합한 것으로 사료된다.
