[The effect of feeding oil palm and coffee by-products on the performance of goats [in Malaysia]]

Twenty-two growing crossbred goats were divided into four treatment groups and reared stallfed. They were accessed to one of the following diets: 1 - Guinea grass (control); II - Guinea grass + concentrate A containing 20% palm kernel cake given at 2% body weight; III - Guinea grass + concentrate B...
