This study examined the comparative nutrient utilization of indigenous non-descript goats (n = 12) maintained on a basal
diet of wheat straw supplemented with a concentrate based on either soybean meal (SBM) or Leucaena leucocephala–Morus
alba–Azadirachta indica (2:1:1) leaf meal mixture (LMAM) prior to conception (pre-gestation), and during gestation (n=8) in a
completely randomized design. Concentrate represented 42% and 72% of DM in diet before and during pregnancy, respectively.
