Abstract

An experiment of 8. wks duration was conducted on 20 Angora rahbits to study the influence of ‘Livol’ supplementation. Tie rabbits inone group were given diet with 0.5% Livol and in other group without Livol. The diets contained 20% protein and adequate energy. The growth trial was conttnued for a period of 8 wks. The body weight gain (21.21 g/d) and feed: gain ratio (5.90) in ‘Livol’ supplemented group were signiricantaly (P<0.05) higher than in unsupplemented group (18.26 g.d and 7.57) at all ages.
