Abstract:The in situ dry matter and crude protein degradability of grasses, legumes, browse trees and agro industrial by products were evaluated by three fistulated bulls (Boran × Holstein-Friesian with mean body weight 580 kg and age= 29±3 months). The lower (P < 0.05) crude protein content was reported in Bracharia grass than the other grasses. The higher (P < 0.05) washing loss rapidly soluble nutrients (a) in Bracharia and Rhodes grasses and the greater (P< 0.05) potential and effective degradability for d… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
