COMPARISON OF IN SITU AND IN VITRO DRY MATTER RUMEN DEGRADABILTY OF THREE DISTINCT QUALITY HAYS IN SHEEP

COMPARISON OF IN SITU AND IN VITRO DRY MATTER RUMEN DEGRADABILTY OF THREE DISTINCT QUALITY HAYS IN SHEEP

The objective of this work was to evaluate the dry matter rumen degradability of three distinct quality hays, using in situ and in vitro techniques. The animals used to incubate the bags in and as inoculum donors were six Santa Ines sheep, male, castrated, weighting 40±5.7 kg LW, all with rumen can...
