“…In addition, the urea treatments increase the nitrogen offered to the microorganisms, through the hydrolysis of urea, serving as a source of nonprotein nitrogen for the fermentation of fiber (GARCÍA-MARTÍNEZ et al, 2009). While reductions in the lag time (L), indicate a greater efficiency in the fermentative activity of the microorganisms, since they are affected by the presence of inhibitory substances to ruminal fermentation such as lignin (ABREU et al, 2014).…”

“…The culture medium was obtained according to the methodology described by Hall and Mertens (2008), with the ruminal inoculum being obtained from three sheep rumen fistulated, fed once a day with corn silage and soybean meal. The time profiles of the cumulative gas production were obtained using a non-automated device, where the gas pressure was obtained by manometric readings and the volume measured by means of a graduated pipette (ABREU et al, 2014). The pressure and volume measurements were performed at the times 0, 2, 4,6,8,10,12,16,20,30,36,48,72 and 96 hours of incubation.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ammoniation by urea on the nutritional value of elephant grass hay harvested after flowering. A completely randomized design, in double factorial designs with an additional treatment: 4 urea doses (2, 4, 6 and 8%) x 2 treatment periods (30 and 45 days) + 1 (Control) with four replicates each, was employed. Dry matter, ash, ether extract, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, cellulose, lignin, neutral detergent fiber corrected for the ash and the protein, total nitrogen, acid detergent insoluble nitrogen, neutral detergent insoluble nitrogen, non-protein nitrogen, in vitro gas production and carbohydrates fractionation were analyzed. The treatments influenced the contents of DM, EE, NDF, ADF, lignin, cellulose, NDFap, fraction A + B1, fraction B2, fraction C, TN, NPN, ADIN, NDIN, L and Vf2. There was a positive linear effect of urea dose for NDF, ADIN, NDIN and L, positive linear effect on fraction A + B1, NT and NPN, and positive quadratic effect for Vf2, with absolute maximum point of 4.5%. Elephant grass hay harvested after flowering has its nutritional value improved, with a minimum dose of 4.5% urea on a dry matter basis.

“…These models are based on the evaluated substrate and on the ruminal digestion kinetics to estimate the availability of nutrients (carbohydrates and proteins) for the microbial growth (Abreu et al, 2014). The optimization of diets for ruminants has been widely investigated, especially concerning their ability to ingest and consume fiber (Vieira et al, 2008a;Jardim et al, 2013).…”

-The objective was to study the kinetics of transit and degradation of the fiber from guinea grass and the waste from soybean pre-cleaning (WSPC), ensiled with different proportions of mass (0, 100, 150, and 200 g WSPC/kg total mass). Four crossbred (Gyr × Holstein), fistulated cattle with an average body mass of 400±50 kg were organized in a 4 × 4 Latin square experimental design. The fiber utilized in the study of the transit kinetics was stained with chromium mordant, whereas the in situ technique was adopted for the degradation kinetics. The level of inclusion of WSPC only affected the true digestibility and the mean retention time. The addition of waste from soybean pre-cleaning to the silage of guinea grass is beneficial, in terms of kinetics of digestion and passage, at up to levels close to 100 g/kg, because after this quantity the fiber digestion and passage in and through the reticulo-rumen are impaired and there may be alterations in the ruminal environment that will affect the use of silage by animals.

“…Dry matter (DM), ash, and ether extract were determined by using the methodology described by Silva & Queiroz (2002). The in vitro digestibility was determined following all recommendations of Abreu et al (2014). Pressure and volume of gas were measured at 1, 2, 3,6,8,10,12,16,20,24,30,36,48,72, and 96 h of post-incubation.…”

SUMMARY The present study aiming to determine the nutritional quality of oat (Avena sativa L.) IPR 126 in order to produce forage for ruminants. Four periods between harvests were used: 14, 21, 28 and 35 days, distributed in randomized blocks with four replicates for each treatment. The variables evaluated were: the concentration of dry matter (DM), neutral detergent insoluble fiber (NDF), crude potein (CP), lignin, dry matter (DM), ash, ether extract (EE) and in vitro digestibility of dry matter obtained by measurement of gas production. The profile of gas production was adjusted to the logistic bicompartimental mathematical model. The variables and the parameters of the adjusted gas production curves were analyzed as repeated measurements through the PROC MIXED of SAS (version 9.0) and the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) as the method of estimation of parameters. Regression analysis was performed for the variables: DM, CP, EE, NDF, ash, and for the parameter k2 of the bicompartimental model. DM and NDF concentrations increased linearly, CP, ash, and the estimations of the parameter k2 reduced linearly and the EE concentration showed a cubic behavior in function of the age of harvest. Lignin and other parameters of the Schofield model were not influenced by the age of harvest. The harvest interval influenced some chemical components and degradation rate of fiber carbohydrates, but do not interfere in lignin concentration. The forage with 21 days of cutting interval has the high nutritional value.
