“…Baumgardt et al (5) stressed the importance of standardizing the time of extraction of rumen liquor relative to feeding and preferred to withhold food and water for 12 h prior to withdrawal. Asplund et al (4), on the other hand, collected the liquor 3-4 h after feeding.…”

“…Baumgardt et al (5) supplemented digests prepared with filtered rumen liquor with N. Tilley et al (17) on the other hand found no change in in vitro digestibility levels on addition of N when the donor sheep were hay-fed, but found rumen liquor from straw-fed sheep to give higher and more normal results with added N.…”

A procedure and equipment which make possible a continuous output of 250 to 300 determinations of in vitro digestibility of organic matter per week are described.The eifect on in vitro digestibility values of removing rumen liquor from sheep at various times before and after feeding, mixing of rumen liquors from different sheep, and nitrogen supplementation ofthe inoculum are investigated. Results are given of a comparison of" the effect of soil contamination on //; vitro data when expressed as digestibility of dry matter and digestibility of organic matter. The levels of within and between-batch errors are stated and the accuracy of prediction of feeding value is discussed.

To assess the potential use of both softwood and hardwood bark broiler litters as a feedstuff for ruminants, the nutrient composition and in vitro digestibility for both raw and ensiled bark litters were chemically evaluated and compared to softwood planer shavings broiler litter. Each bark type was either processed or used directly as it came from the rosserhead debarker. Ensiling studies showed the lactic acid content was higher for hardwood bark litters than for softwood planer shavings. Softwood bark litter contained the least amount of lactic acid after fermentation in mini-silos. In vitro dry matter digestibility was higher for hardwood bark litters than for softwood bark litters or softwood planer shavings. No difference in in vitro dry matter digestibility was observed between raw and ensiled bark litter. No differences in ash, phosphorus, ether extract, nitrogen, total energy, and acid detergent fiber content were observed among the litters tested. The pH. of ensiled hardwood bark was lower than ensiled softwood bark. Results indicate that from a nutritive standpoint, bark litters are potentially useful as a ruminant feed. Hardwood bark litter also appears to ensile better and to be more digestible and possibly more nutritious than softwood bark and softwood planer shavings litter.

“…Avaliando diversos hibridos em dois locais quanto a incidência de fungos na panicula, HARRIS & BURNS (1973) verificaram uma correlação negativa (r = -0,89 e r = -0,92) entre o teor de tanino no grão e o dano causado pelos fungos.…”
