Abstract

Banana rejects, leaves, and pseudostem were collected from commercial refrigerators in Khartoum North Central Fruit and Vegetable Market. The chemical composition, ruminal dry matter degradability characteristics were determined for every type of waste. The dry matter degradability was determined by the nylon bag technique usingfistulated calves.  Every waste was incubated for 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours in the rumen. The dry matter disappearance rate increased with length of the incubation period. The banana rejects have the highest solubility, degradability rate, and effective degradability followed by the pseudostem, and finally the leaves.
