Abstract
A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of rations containing 20 40 and 60 coffee pulp on the carcass performance of young LID x Red Dane bulls. As a control a group of animals were fed 100 napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum). The crude protein contents of the rations and napier grass were 11.2-12.7 and 9.3 respectively with gross energy contents of 2.8-3.4 and 3.6 kcal/kg respectively. After 322 days on these rations a total of 12 animals were slaughtered to evaluate their body composition and carcass characteristics. The results indicated that bulls that were on the 20 coffee pulp ration yielded higher (P 0.05) dressing percentage carcass weight total meat and total edible tissue than the other groups. The values of these variables for the animals that were on the 20 coffee pulp ration were 57.0 132.2 85.7 and 108.0 kg respectively. Animals that were on 100 napier grass produced 54.8 92.3 58.2 and 75.7 kg respectively
