The present study was carried out in the Korhogo commune to evaluate some zootechnical performances of small ruminants supplemented with two available agricultural by-products. To achieve this, 60 small ruminants aged 6 months, including 30 antennae and 30 goats, were used during the period from August 02 to October 10, 2021. They were divided into 3 batches of 10 animals for each species, for a total of 6 batches installed at the farmers' premises. For both antennae and goats, batch 1 or control batch was fed only greenAndropogon gayanus (Poaceae) forage. Batch 2 was fed corn bran in the antena and cassava peelings in the goats. Batch 3 was fed with cassava peelings for the female antennae and corn bran for the goats. The best zootechnical performances were obtained in the antennae of batch 2 and the goats of batch 3, with a significant difference (P
