Abstract

Fifty native breed cows, assigned to study designed to Clear the effect of Silage (Makmora) as a high-concentrate diet on acid-base status The cow were fed on10-20 g/kg daily of silage (Makmora) before admitted to the clinical examination because of rumen indigestion, all cows were fed a diet containing rice straw which was used as a roughage source. Based on the present study, the results revealed that silage (Makmora) could be a dangerous cause for indigestion and threating general health condition of cattle in Egypt. The protozoal, numbers and motility were lower among diseased animals may be due to rumen ecology and nutrient digestibility by enhancing ruminal pH. Examination as additional auxiliary means in diagnostic investigation and as a prognostic indicator in cows with rumen alkalosis. Due to obtained results the serum concentrations of sodium and chloride were appropriate values to predict rumen fermentation efficiency in alkalosis in cow fed on silage (Makmora)
