Conteúdo: 	P. juliflora (mesquite: kabuli kikar) pods were supplemented at 0, 10, 20 and 40% levels replacing equal quantities of wheat bran in the concentrate mixture fed to cattle and sheep. Digestibility and metabolic trials were conducted on growing cross-bred male calves, using a 4 .times. 4 latin-square design. No significant differences (P < 0.05) were found in the digestion coefficients of all the nutrients of the 4 treatment groups. Inclusion of ground P. juliflora pods in place of wheat bran did not affect palatability and nutrient digestibility. Incorporation of the ground pods in the concentrate feeds also did not affect N, Ca and P balances. A 133-day growth and carcass characteristic study was undertaken on 20 Nellore ram lambs 6-7 mo. of age. No significant differences (P < 0.05) were observed in average daily gain and dressing percentage among the 4 treatment groups. An average daily gain of 43-51 g was recorded.
