Abstract
In the present study, various physio-chemical parameters i.e. moisture, ash, fiber, protein, fats, oils and carbohydrates were determined in the whole plants samples of Indigofera gerardiana and berries of Crataegus songrica. The percent levels of moisture (4.8), ash (4.79) and fats (3.03) were higher in Crateagus songrica compared to the levels of moisture (3.06), ash (4.23) and fats (2.37) in Indigofera gerardiana. The % levels of protein (3.7) and fibers (17.8) were same in both plants while the level of carbohydrate (68.84) was higher in Indigofera gerardiana as compared to the levels of carbohydrate (65.88) in Crataegus songrica.
