In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was studied the efficiency of application of granulated and extruded lupine (Lupinus) in feeding of bull claves. It was determined that after lupine extruding the quantity of sugar in it increased on 45% due to lowering of starch content. The inclusion of extruded lupine into bull calves diets made it possible to increase the digestibility of dry and organic substances, protein and nitrogen-free extractive substances. The highest average daily weight gain (842 gram) was stated at claves which were fed with mixed fodder with 15% of extruded lupine; this was on 7,5% than in a control group. In the conditions of feeding with the granulated lupine the average daily weight gain increased on 5,3% in comparison with crushed one. In course of study there was analyzed the dependence chemical composition of lupine on the processing method; blood composition of the studied animals; diets of experimental animals; digestibility of nutrient substances of forages; balance and intake of nitrogen; biochemical blood composition; changes of live weight and average daily weight gain.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there were analyzed the efficiency of 13-18-month old young stock of cattle bred for meat in the conditions of various energy value nutrition levels with the determination of nutrients intake of a diet. It was established that use of rations with various level of metabolic energy and protein breakage rendered the positive influence on nutrient digestibility of rations. This made it possible to improve the digestibility of dry and organic substances, nitrogen-free extractive substances and fibre at the bull calves which were fed with 63% of cleavable protein, as well as to increase the metabolic energy up to 10% in the ration, surpassing the control indexes respectively on 3.1; 2.5; 2.8; and 2.9 items. Adjournment from the acquired nitrogen considerably increased and made up to 64-70%. Productivity of fattening young cattle stock made it possible to obtain 977.7-1011.0 gram of live weight gain. As a result, the growth energy was stated at the level of 15,90-17,33 МJ in the conditions of conversion of metabolic energy into growth of 13,81-14,26% and expenses of metabolic energy of the ration per 1 MJ in live weight gain of 4,72-5,46 MJ.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was studied the efficiency of application of forage chemical preservatives Kormoplyus-1, Kormoplyus-2, and Kormoplyus-3 for grass fodder conservation. The analyzed preservatives contained acetous acid, urotropine and sodium acetate (only in Kormoplus-2). In course of the study there were established experimental batches with the studied sreservative; there was determined a chemical composition of prepared forages; in physiological and scientifical and economic experiment there was analyzed the feeding efficiency of cereal ensilage. Research results showed that application of preservatives Kormoplyus-1 and Kormoplyus-2 2 for preparation of cereal ensilage made it possible to receive a high quality ensilage and to increase the dry matter safety on 4,2-8,7% and protein on 12-9,4% on comparison with storage without preservatives. Also, it made it possible to increase the digestibility of dry matter in cattle diets respectively on 5.5% and3.7%; organic substance - on 5.5% and 4.0%; fibre - on 16,5% and 15,0%, and also to increase nitrogen deposition on 17,4 and 20,8%. Feeding with forages preserved with Kormoplyus-1 and 2 did not render negative influence on a health state and biochemical indices of animal blood.
