The objective of this work was to study the effects of the concentrate levels of the diet on the microbial efficiency, ruminal ammonia and pH, and endogenous nitrogen (N) losses. Four Nellore bulls, fistulated in the rumen, abomasum and ileum, were full fed diets with 25.0, 37.5, 50.0, 62.5, and 75.0% of concentrate and allotted to a randomized block design. The ruminal ammonia concentrations and pH were measured in the ruminal fluid samples in collections made before and 2, 4, […]
