Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate effects of levels of Spophocarpus scandén (SS) replacing Para grass (Brachiaria mutica) in the diets on feed and nutrient utilization, growth performance of crossbred rabbits. The experiment was a complete randomized design with five treatments and three replicates. Four female rabbits (balance in sex) at 60 days of age were allocated in one experimental unit and the treatments were levels of 0, 20, 40, 60 and 80% (DM basis) of Spophocarpus scandén replacing Para grass in the diets. The results showed that DM intake was significantly different (P<0.01) among diets. Crude protein intake of rabbits significantly (P<0.01) increased with the higher levels of Para grass replaced by SS. The daily weight gain of the rabbits were higher in the diets with SS replacement, however only the daily weight gain of the SS40 treatment was significantly higher than the SS0 one. The nutrient digestibility of dry matter and crude protein and nitrogen retention of rabbits were also significantly (P<0.01) improved when increasing the levels of SS replacement. The conclusion was that using of Spophocarpus scandén to replace Para grass improved nutrient utilization, nitrogen retention and daily weight gain.
