Abstract

Nutritive value of Deoiled cake of Seabuckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) was carried out among nine major gene pool areas and three growing conditions in cold desert ecosystem of Spiti Valley of Himachal Pradesh. The present study Is an outcome of the survey of Seabuckthorn populations. After the seed oil extraction from each gene pool area, and three growing condition viz., Pure stand, Mixed stand and Crop land, deoiled cake was evaluated for nutritional parameters. Maximum value of crude protein (31.51%), starch content (53.99%), total sugar (6.00%) of deoiled cake were recorded for Shelgo (GPA3), among different gene pool areas of Spiti Valley of Himachal Pradesh. On the other hand, in case of growing condition, maximum value of crude protein (30.90%), starch content (53.61%), total sugar (5.96%) of deoiled cake were recorded for GC3 (Crop Land). In overall performance for chemical characteristics of deoiled cake, the GPA3 (Sheigo) was found to be best in all gene pool areas and GC3 (Crop land) was found to be best with in growing conditions. Moderate protein content, total sugar content and high starch content present In deoiled cake suggest It as good poultry feed.
