Evaluation of Afzelia africana seeds as protein feedstuff in fish diets
2009
Nwachukwu, V.N. | Ndubuisi, S.U.
Seeds of the legume Afzelia africana were analyzed and evaluated for use as protein feedstuff in fish diets. The seeds were heated to inactivate the anti-nutritional factors. Two iso-nitrogenous diets (26%) were produced using A. africana or Bonga-fishmeal as protein sources and labeled FI and F2, respectively. The resulting pellets were sinking pellets and were well accepted by tilapia based on the reaction time to feed presence and proportion of pellets eaten within one hour. Fl pellets were more stable in water than F2 pellets with mean dissolution times of 190 mins and 135 mins, respectively
