Ammonia treatment with urea can improve the nutritional value of rice straw for feeding animals. By storing rice straw with urea in different containers for specific periods, the protein content increased significantly. This led to higher intake and better digestion of the straw, resulting in improved energy levels for the animals. The study showed that treating rice straw with urea is a simple and effective method that can benefit small farmers.
