Effects of cladode age on biomass yield and nutritional value of intensively produced spineless cactus for ruminants
A randomized complete block design with five replications was used to assess biomass yield, in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) and nutritional value of spineless cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) produced under drip irrigation and fertilization. Cladodes were harvested from an established…
