Effect of Padina gymnospora biowaste inclusion on in vitro methane production, feed fermentation, and microbial diversity.

ABSTRACT: In vitro studies were undertaken aiming to study the methane (CH₄) mitigation potential of biowaste (BW) of Padina gymnospora at the graded inclusion of 0% (C), 2% (A₂), 5% (A₅), and 10% (A₁₀) of the diet composed of straw and concentrate in 40:60 ratio. The chemical composition analysis revealed that the BW contained higher crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), and ether extract (EE) than the PF (fresh seaweed, P. gymnospora). The concentration of cinnamic acid, sinapic acid, kaempferol, fisetin p-coumaric acid, ellagic acid, and luteolin in BW was 1.5-6-folds less than the PF. Inclusion of BW decreased (P < 0.0001) CH₄ production by 34%, 38%, and 45% in A₂
