Effect of harvest time of red and white clover silage on chewing activity and particle size distribution in boli, rumen content and faeces in cows
The study examined the effects of harvest time of red and white clover silage on eating and ruminating activity and particle size distribution in feed boli, rumen content and faeces in cows. The clover crops were harvested at two stages of growth and ensiled in bales. Red clover crops had 36% and 45...
