• RUMEN ALKALOSIS.
• ALKALINE INDIGESTION.
• AMMONIA POISONING/
• UREA POISONING
• RUMEN PUTRIFACTION
• Incidence is LESS
• Rumen alkalosis can occur with the generation of excessive
ammonia.
• Ammonia CONCENTRATIONS raise when HIGH PROTEIN diets are
fermented in the rumen.
• Rumen liquor pH > 7.5 .
• Each gram of UREA – 2.81 gm of proteins.
ALKALINE INDIGESTION-
ETIOLOGY
• Feeding of Paddystraw alone ( for 4 weeks )
• Urea poisoning .
• Accidental consumption of ammonia containing fertilizers.
• Excessive urea treatment of paddy straw(as NPN source)
• High protein diets- legumes ,concentrates.
• Spoiled feeds.
• Excessive soya been cake ingestion.
• Accidental ingestion of placenta.
• Drinking of Contaminated and Sewage water.
• Injudicious usage of alkalies Mg(OH)2.
• Sethuraman and Rathor ( 1979) induced Rumen alkalosis
in cattle and buffaloes by intraruminal administration of
guar (గోరు చిక్కు డు ) soaked overnight at the rate of 25 g/kg body
weight.
• Administration of Urea @ 1.25 g/kg B.wt –Experimentally
( Repeated Adminstration of small quantity of urea)
