In vivo production and molar percentages of volatile fatty acids in the rumen: a quantitative review by an empirical approach
Despite their major contribution to the energy supply of ruminants, the production of volatile fatty acids (VFA) in the rumen is still poorly predicted by rumen models. We have developed an empirical approach, based on the interpretation of large bibliographic databases gathering published in vivo m...
