Abstract

This article presents research and results of physicochemical indicators of three varieties of triticale grains – "Ukaz", "Baru", "Zernokormovoe" – and camel thorn from various regions of Kazakhstan: Almaty Region (Bakanas village), Turkestan Region (Shaulder village), and Turkestan Region (Arys city). Physicochemical analyses were conducted, and the feed values of the selected plant materials were determined. The process of sprouting triticale was used to improve its nutritional value and digestibility. Before sprouting, the composition of triticale was characterized by relatively low levels of vitamins and minerals, which limited its nutritional value. After the sprouting process, an improvement in composition was observed. This makes triticale a more effective, safer, and complete component of animal feed. Based on the conducted research on physicochemical indicators, the "Ukaz" variety of triticale shows the best values for sugar, starch, and protein content, making it a promising animal feed. It was also noted that there is a predominance of calcium (0.11%) and phosphorus (0.27%) in the "Ukaz" variety of triticale, which is a positive factor for feeding, considering the importance of these minerals for animal health. The analysis results confirm that camel thorn can be used in the feed industry as a valuable source of protein. According to the study, the protein content in camel thorn samples varies from 13.97% (from the Bakanas village sample) to 15.55% (from the Shaulder village sample), which meets the standards for high-quality animal feed. The research findings open prospects for the development of effective feed solutions for camels, including the use of components such as camel thorn and sprouted triticale. The choice of camel thorn and triticale is justified by their nutritional characteristics and adaptive properties, making these crops suitable for camel feeding. The sprouting of triticale, in turn, improves its nutritional value by increasing the content of vitamins and minerals, as well as enhancing its digestibility. The study results confirm the feasibility of using them in the diet of camels and open prospects for optimizing feed solutions.
