Effect of different sources of non-fiber carbohydrate on ruminal pH and in vitro digestibility of tropical forage

Effect of different sources of non-fiber carbohydrate on ruminal pH and in vitro digestibility of tropical forage

The present study aimed to evaluate non-fiber carbohydrates (NFC) in sugarcane-based diets on rumen pH, and forage digestibility, and to describe NFC degradation curves. The study consisted of two trials. For the first trial, three rumen cannulated steers, BW of 350 ± 15 kg (mean ± SE), were assigne...
