The influence of the level of forage intake on the degradability of particles of elephant grass in the sections of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of bovines and on some traits of ruminal kinetics was studied. A completely randomized split plot design was used, with twelve treatments in the main plots (a 2×6 factorial, comprising two levels of feeding: restricted – NA1 and unrestricted – NA2, and six slaughter times) and the five sections GIT in the split plots. Thirty-six steers maintained […]
