| Abstract |
This study was conducted to determine protein requirements for maintenance (RCP) of Egyptian Nubian goats under 25°C and 35°C environmental temperature. Protein requirements for maintenance of goats were determined under the two environmental temperatures from nitrogen balance data applying statistical. factorial and graphical methods. Goats were fed four rations differed in dietary protein concentrations (9.38, 11.81. 13.22 and 14.74 %).
Results indicated that RCP calculated by any method was lower for goats under 35°C than those under 25° C by about 25%; averaging 5.63 g/Kg W.075 for goats under. 25°C and 4.31 g/Kg W.075 for those under 35°C.
Keywords: goat, protein, maintenance requirement, heat stress
