Abstract
Six one-year old dairy crossbred steers 3 heads/group were randomly divided into two groups to receive high-quality feed block without cassava hay HQFB 1 drenching Ivomex and HQFB with cassava hay HQFB2 as block licks while grazing on Ruzi grass pasture. During the eight weeks fecal parasitic eggs were dramatically declined after treatment for both treatments groups with 63.2 and 27.6 reduction from initial period for HQFB 1Ivomex and HQFB2 respectively. HQFB2 with cassava hay that contained condensed tannins and high protein could have affected on the declining parasitic egg counts. Digestion coefficients of nutrients particularly the organic matter OM were significantly higher in HQFB2 than in HQFB 1Ivomex. Moreover ADG of animals in HQFB2 tended to be higher as well. It was concluded that cassava hay could be used as a protein source as well as an anthelmintics for ruminants.
