The effect of supplementing highly wilted grass silage with maize silage, fodder beet or molasses on degradation of the diets and the efficiency of microbial protein synthesis in the rumen of sheep
This study aimed at determining the efficiency of microbial protein synthesis (EMPS) in diets based on highly wilted grass silage (GS, 539 g dry matter (DM) per kg) with the supplementation of starch or water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC) rich feeds, i.e. maize silage (MS, 391 g kg-1 DM intake [DMI]),...
