Twelve females of Thai native x lowline angus crossbred cattle were assigned an Initial Body Weight of 99.50±9.83 kg IBW. Dietary treatments were assigned in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD(, with three treatments of four replications, each containing four calves and a 90-day feeding trial. Feeding treatments were (1) 100% concentrate (Control), (2) 100% Concentrate +50% dried Cassava top Fermented Cassava pulp (CtFCp-50), and (3) 100% concentrate + dried Cassava top Fermented Cassava pulp fed freely (CtFCp-ad libitum). The variance analysis was used to assess the data and the treatment mean was compared using the Ducan Multiple Ranging Test (DMRT). The results demonstrated that Average Daily Gain (ADG) was significantly increased by groups fed CtFCp-50 and CtFCp-ad libitum compared to control (p0.05) but %BW (p}, journal = {American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
