An in vitro experiment was conducted to study the effect of supplementation of exogenous fibrolytic enzyme (EFE) or live yeast culture or both in total mixed rations on digestibility of nutrients. The dietary treatments included a groundnut haulms based total mixed ration (TMR) with R: C ratio of 70: 30 (T1), T1 supplemented with EFE @ 15 g/animal/d (T2), T1 supplemented with live yeast culture @ 10 g/animal/d (T3) and T1 supplemented with EFE @ 15 g/animal/d and live yeast culture @ 10 g/animal/d (T4). Results indicated that the in vitro digestibility (%) of DM, CP, NDF and ADF were lower (P<0.05) in T1 as compared to other treatments. Further, the in vitro digestibility (%) of DM, CP, NDF and ADF increased linearly from T2 to T4, but the differences were not significant (P>0.05). It is concluded that supplementation of either EFE or yeast culture or both increased the in vitro digestibility of nutrients.
