ABSTRACTS The study was aimed at improving protein content of cassava root (Manihot esculenta Crantz) by solid-state fermentation with yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), urea and di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) additive and its utilization as protein source in the diets of Moo Lath Pig in Laos.

Four experiments were carried out with “two in cassava root fermentation experiments, two experiments were conducted with Moo Lath pig using taro silage (TS) replaced by protein-enriched cassava root (PECR) as protein sources on growing trial and digestibility. In chapter 2, experiment 1. Cassava root was fermented with yeast, urea and DAP in a solid-state fermentation to determine the degree of conversion of crude to true protein; and experiment 2 the limiting factor to the synthesis of true protein from crude protein in the fermentation of cassava root could be the decrease in pH in the fermentation substrate preventing the hydrolysis of urea to ammonia and thus decreasing the availability of nitrogen for growth of the yeast. The following experiment to determine the degree of conversion of crude to true protein, pH and ammonia.

The experiment was arranged as a 2*3*4 factorial in a completely randomized design (CRD). The treatments were: root processing (steamed and not steamed); DAP: 0, 1 and 2% of the substrate DM. The fermentation was over 14 days with samples taken for determination of true and crude protein (CP) at 0, 3, 7 and 14 days. A CRD was used with 2 treatments arranged as a 2*9 factorial.

The treatments were anaerobic and aerobic fermentation. The substrate was cassava root 93. True, crude protein, ammonia and pH were measured at 0 and 3h after preparing the substrates and every 24h until end of day 7 (0, 3h, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 day). The true protein (TP) in cassava root increased with a curvilinear trend (R2 = 0.87% in DM as the fermentation time increased from zero to 14 days; the ratio of true to crude protein increased from 24.7 over the same period.

Increasing the proportion of DAP from zero to 2% of the iv luan an substrate DM increased the TP from 5.3% in DM after 14 days of fermentation. Steaming the cassava root prior to fermentation improved slightly (p=0.67) the conversion of crude to TP. The pH decreased with fermentation time, according to an almost linear trend, from 5.8 immediately after mixing the substrate, to 5.47in 3h and to 3. The level of CP after mixing the substrate and additives was 10.35% in DM and did not change over the 7 days of fermentation.

TP in the substrate increased from 2.97% in DM as the fermentation time increased from zero to 7 days. There were no differences in all these criteria as between the aerobic and anaerobic condition, other than a tendency for the pH to fall slightly more quickly in the first 4 days in the anaerobic condition followed by a slower rate of fall to reach almost the same final value after 7 days, as for the aerobic condition. A growth trial was conducted with 12 Moo Lath pigs with average 14.89 kg initial live weight in a CRD, with three replications of four treatments. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of replacing TS with PECR in a basal diet of ensiled banana stem (BS).

There were positive responses in dry matter (DM) intake, live weight gain, feed conversion ratio, as the percentage of PECR in the diet was increased (zero to 15% in DM ). It was concluded that the replacing of taro foliage silage with PECR improved the quality of the overall diet, which resulted in higher intake, growth rate, better feed conversion ratio and economical efficiency. Four castrated male Moo Lath pig, weighing on average 15 kg were allotted at random to 4 diets within a 4*4 Latin square design, to study effects on DM intake, digestibility and N retention of levels of protein-enriched cassava root (PECR) as 0, 25, 50 and 75% in combination with TS as 80, 55, 30 and 5% with constant levels of ensiled banana stem 20% (all on DM basis). PECR at 25% in a diet led to increases in feed intake, diet digestibility and N retention in native Moo Lath pigs and PECR could be the result of its superior biological value compared with the protein in the taro foliage.

These criteria declined linearly when the proportions of PECR were increased to 50 and 75% of the diet DM.
