Abstract
A study on the production and utilization of multinutrient blocks using locally available feed resources was conducted at the Adamawa State University, Livestock Teaching and Research Farm Mubi. The cost of production hardness and compactness and utilization were evaluated as feed supplement to cattle and sheep during the dry and wet seasons. Two multinutrient blocks were developed using local ingredients, multinutrient blocks with molasses (MNBM) and multinutrient blocks without molasses (MNBW). The chemical compositions of MNBM were DM (94.5%), CP (12%), CF (16%), EE (8.5%), Ash (9%) and NFE (54.5%). The MNBW contains DM (95.4%), CP (13.5%), CF (18.0%), EE (6.5%), Ash (6%) and NFE (56%). The hardness at 15/30 days after moulding was 3.6kg/cm 2
