The research aimed at assessing the effects on nutrient digestion and ruminal fermentation by goats of a complete feed block (CFB) that incorporated agro-industrial by-products that were high in fibre and cellulolytic bacteria. Three Kacang goats, a native Indonesian breed,…
The study investigated the effects of replacing soybean meal (SBM) with slow-release urea (SRU) on milk production, milk composition, and rumen fermentation of Holstein dairy cows. Sixteen Holstein cows weighing between 550 and 680 kg in mid lactation were randomly…
This experiment was conducted to determine apparent and true amino acid digestibilities of untreated (BPS), heat-treated (HBPS) and thermal-ammoniated (NH3BPS) high-tannin sorghum with pigs both intact and with an ileo-rectal anastomosis (IRA). The mean endogenous protein secretion for the surgically…
The aim of this experiment was to distinguish between the effects of dietary roughage: concentrate ratio and rumen ammonia concentration on rumen in situ degradation in sheep. Three diets with roughage: concentrate ratios of (Eragrostiscurvula hay:maize) 75:25, 50:50 or 25:75…
