Abstract
The present investigation entitled “study the effect of yeast culture feeding on body weight of heifer” was undertaken during year 2017-18. Selected the twenty heifers for experiments and divided into 4 groups. Thus, each consisted of 5 heifer for the study. They were randomly allotted to four treatments via T1 - (control) Green Fodder + Dry Fodder + Concentrate mixture + without yeast culture, T2 - Green Fodder + Dry Fodder + Concentrate mixture + 5 gm yeast culture, T3 - Green Fodder + Dry Fodder + Concentrate mixture + 10 gm yeast culture and T4 - Green Fodder + Dry Fodder + Concentrate mixture + 15 gm yeast culture. The multi strain yeast culture used were containing four strain yeast culture containing four strain namely Lactobacillus acidofellus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces boulardii and Profionibacterium frendenreichii of bacteria and fungi respectively. Multi-strain yeast culture was supplied by Wokhardt co. Mumbai namely Biovet-YC Gold was fed as per treatment to the heifers. Observation on feed intake, dry matter intake and growth parameters like a weight weight was recorded and statistically analyzed by adopting randomized block design. The heifers fed under treatment T4 amongst all treatments showed average daily weight gain (0.451 kg per day).
