Influence of fumaric acid on ruminal parameters and organ weights of growing bulls fed with grass or maize silage
The influence of the potential methane reducer, fumaric acid (FA), on ruminal parameters, the rumen wall and organ weights was investigated in a long-term study with growing bulls. In all, 20 bulls were fed with maize or grass silage as roughage, and with concentrate with or without 300 g FA per ani...
