Comparative Evaluation of Single Super Phosphate and Di-Calcium Phosphate in Cows and Buffaloes: I Effect on Production and Health, and Ii Treatment of Phosphorus- Associated Clinical Disorders
The present study conducted in two phases attempted to evaluate fertilizer grade Single super phosphate (SSP) vis-à-vis Di-calcium phosphate (DCP) in terms of their effect on production and health in dairy cows and buffaloes. Phase I entailed comparative evaluation of SSP and DCP in buffaloes and cows for their effects on health and production. It was conducted for one complete lactation on buffaloes and sahiwal cows (n=150) to evaluate in comparative terms the effect of feeding SSP and DCP on health, production and reproduction. For this purpose, animals were randomly divided into two treatment (DCP and super juice prepared from SSP) and one control group. Responses to the two treatments were examined on the basis of milk yield, weight gain and reproductive performance. Benefit-cost analysis of P supplementation from SSP or DCP (calculated on monthly additional milk yield basis only) in cows indicated that phosphorus supplementation from SSP was far more cost beneficial (benefit-cost ratio = 19.2: 1) than phosphorus supplementation from DCP (benefit-cost ratio = 1.2:1). In the case of buffalo, SSP and DCP respectively had a benefit-cost ratio of 26:1 and 2.83:1. Benefit-cost analysis of P supplementation from SSP and DCP also indicated that the P supplementation from either SSP or DCP was more cost effective in buffalo than in cow. In SSP supplemented cows and buffaloes, serum P levels (5.84 ± 0.13 mg/dl) were higher than those of cows and buffaloes treated with DCP (5.18 ± 0.10 mg/dl). The values of liver enzymes specific in bovine species viz: sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH), glutamyl transferase (GGT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) recorded in DCP and SSP treated animals were comparable to those in control group of animals indicating that both SSP and DCP did not exert any liver toxicity. Fecal excretion of P in the DCP (119.46±4.42) treated animals (cows and buffaloes) was significantly higher than in the control (77.00±1.88) and SSP (108.71±5.36) treated groups. Non-significant (P>0.05) differences in RBC, WBC, PCV and Hb values were recorded between treatments (control, SSP, DCP). Pregnancy rate in control, DCP and SSP treated groups, respectively was 42, 60, and 74% over the duration of the trial. Mean number of services per conception in control, DCP and SSP treated buffaloes was 2.1, 1.96, and 1.92, respectively. The corresponding mean number of services per conception for cows was 2.3, 2.1, and 2.1, respectively. Phase II of the study dealt with evaluation of comparative therapeutic efficacy of SSP and DCP in the treatment of such P associated disorders as parturient hemoglobinuria, osteomalacia-like disease, pica, anestrus and repeat breeding. DCP or SSP were used as adjunct therapeutic agents in the treatment of these P associated clinical disorders. The responses in terms of clearance of clinical signs and serum mineral profiles with SSP for these five diseases were broadly comparable to the responses obtained by treatment with DCP. In conclusion, integration of the findings of phase I and phase II of the present study would tempt one to tentatively conclude that super juice prepared from SSP can be used as a cheaper alternative to DCP in dairy production as well as to treat important P associated disorders of cows and buffaloes.

Social website is a platform that allows people to create and share different ideas, information and pictures/videos. Social websites like Facebook, Whatsapp, Twitter, Linked In, Youtube etc, allow users to intract with large number of people. In every field of life, these websites have postive and negative effects. The use of social websites make them good or bad. In this paper, we present an evolution of social websites in the teachings of Islam. Islam doesn’t against the social websites, it only condemns its negative impact or negative use.
Poor biogas productivity has been delineated due to presence of macro- and micronutrients in anaerobic digestion at low levels. The present study assessed the capability of the different biomass i.e., water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), corn (Zea mays), giant reed (Arundo donax) and poultry waste etc., for biogas production through co-digestion process. The proposed substrates were characterized biochemically and assessed for biogas generation during monodigestion and co-digestion. The effects of inocula and toxicity of some antibiotics were also assessed on the process performance. On the basis of chemical characterization, water hyacinth was considered as suitable for mono and co-digestion due to high volatile solids (VS) and total soluble contents. However, poultry substrate is appropriate only if it is co-digested with other biomass. The ratio experiments of different plant biomasses and poultry wastes demonstrated that water hyacinth and poultry (50:50) produced 262 mLgVS-1, giant reed and poultry produced (80:20) produced 235 mL gVS-1, maize and poultry (60:40) produced 193 mLgVS-1. However, the pretreatment of plant biomass with Fenton’s and Fenton’s plus ultrasonic had no effect on biogas generation as compared to co-digestion. In batch experiments, all the antibiotics concentrations had severely inhibited biogas production as compared to control. However, erythromycin and tetracycline showed greater inhibitions as compared to bacitracin and monensin. The continuous addition of residual antibiotics in manure may affect the hydrolysis of organic matter during anaerobic digestion. The accumulated residual antibiotics had additive effects on daily and cumulative biogas production when poultry substrates and stillage were fed into the CSTRs against the two different inocula (cattle rumen microflora and municipal sludge). The Reactor with cattle inocula produced optimum biogas generation until it was perturbed with antibiotic monensin on 100 day. We recommend the co-digestion of substrates like water hyacinth and giant reed produced on marginal lands for biogas production to overcome the energy crisis in developing countries. The molecular analysis of the microbial composition showed that the microbial consortia found in a particular digester varied based on the biochemical nature of substrates used in the bioreactor.
