Effect of condensed tannins from on rumen fermentation, methane production and population of rumen protozoa in heifers fed low-quality forage

Effect of condensed tannins from on rumen fermentation, methane production and population of rumen protozoa in heifers fed low-quality forage

Objective The aim of the experiment was to assess the effect of increasing amounts of Leucaena leucocephala forage on dry matter intake (DMI), organic matter intake (OMI), enteric methane production, rumen fermentation pattern and protozoa population in cattle fed Pennisetum purpureum and housed in...
