Problem 2. Formulate a ration for a steer gaining 0.75 kg/day which maximizes the use of roughage. The nutrient requirements are shown in the following table: Requirements of the steer (250 kg): Available feeds: DM TDN DM TDN Amount 6.4 kg 3.8 Napier 22% 55% % of DM 59.4 Rice bran (D,) 88% 80% 2b. If the requirement is not met from feeding Napier grass alone, a high energy concentrate like rice bran (D,) is used to replace part of the Napier grass. Rice bran (RB) is locally available and contains 80% (TDN). Calculate the proportion of the Napier and RB using the Pearson square method. How many kg DM will be supplied by the Napier grass and RB, respectively, to meet the 6.4 kg requirement of the steer? Show your solution:
