dc.description.abstractThis report focuses on three factors that affect livestock production using halophytes – biomass production, nutritive value (NV) of the biomass and voluntary feed intake (VFI). The growth of halophytic forages is widely recognized as a means for using saline land and water, but this study aim to assess the factors affecting the utilisation of this biomass by ruminants such as sheep, cattle and goats.en_US
