The results of the present study revealed that there was no difference in dry matter intake among the groups. Neither wheat bran nor microbial feed additives had any effect on the digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, neutral detergent fibre,-acid detergent fibre, crude protein and ether extract. The average daily gain and feed conversion efficiency were also similar among the groups. The results of this experiment indicated that maize grain can be successfully replaced by wheat bran without impairing the performance of growing crossbred calves. There was no further improvement in the performance of the animals by supplementation of lactic acid producing bacteria Under present experimental conditions.
