• Nutritional and elemental analyses
• fodder species
• traditional uses

The present study was carried out to evaluate the nutritional value and elemental analysis of some fodder plant species. Proximate composition of proteins, crude fibers, fats and oils, moisture, ash contents and carbohydrates and elemental composition of aerial parts have been determined by using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). A total of 16 elements; Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Rb, K, Ca, Fe, Mn, Ti, Ni, Cu, Zn and Cl have been measured. Their concentrations were found to vary in different samples.
