Evaluation of the chemical composition of date palms

In a context of rising animal feed prices due to the increased costs of raw materials imported in foreign currency, which weighs heavily on the state budget, and after several years of drought that have reduced grazing areas, all parties are seeking to find alternative, useful, and lower-cost natural resources, such as oasis waste and dates, to be valued and integrated into the livestock sector's feed ration. It is here that the true value of these raw materials manifests itself, with components rich in fiber, sugars, and starch. In addition to being available in significant quantities, these alternatives are distinguished by unique characteristics that enrich the nutritional composition of the feed, help reduce costs, and allow for a balanced, healthy, and beneficial diet for the health of the herd.
