This experiment was conducted to evaluate utilization of admixture silage of suger beet pulp with sugar cane bagasse or wheat straw in feeding of dairy buffaloes. A change over design with 4 treatments ( ration) and 4 periods (28 days) was carried out using of 12 lactating buffaloes. Treatments were: (T1) corn silage (control), (T2) admixture of suger beet pulp and sugar can bagasse, (T3) admixture of sugar beet pulp and wheat straw, and (T4) admixture of sugar beet pulp and sugar can bagasse and wheat straw which were used as rouphage portion of the diets. The average daily milk yield was 6.65, 6.75, 6.75 and 6.72 kg for T1, T2, T3 and T4 which were no significantly (P 0.05) varied among the treatments. However, the 4 FCM milk yield and milk composition were not affected by the treatments.The average cost of feeding and cost of feed per kg of milk yield and cost of feed per kg of 4 FCM milk yield for T1,T2,T3 and T4 were 13631, 11595,13881 and 13031 Rials, 2096, 1744, 2068 and 1965 Rials, 1660, 1401, 1614 and 1535 Rials, respectively, and differences between treatments were significant (P 0.05).It was concluded that admixture silage of sugar beet pulp with sugar cane bagasse (T2) can be used as rouphage part of lactating buffaloes and reduced feeding cost.
