Supplementation of Oilseeds to an Herbage Diet High in Condensed Tannins Affects Methane Production with Minimal Impact on Ruminal Fermentation in Continuous Culture

Condensed tannins (CT) have been observed to reduce enteric CH<sub>4</sub> production when added to ruminant diets. However, high concentrations of CT in forages such as sericea lespedeza (SL; <i>Lespedeza cuneata</i> (Dum. Cours.) G. Don) may depress nutrient digestibility....
