The influence of the level of intake of elephantgrass, under grazing, on the composition of digesta and on concentration of the marker Cr2O3 throughout the gastrintestinal tract (GTI) of bovines was studied. A split-plot completely randomized design with twelve treatments in the main plots (a 2×6 factorial with two levels of forage ingestion: restricted – NA1 and unrestricted – NA2, and six slaughter periods) and the five sections of GTI in the split-plots was used. Thirty six steers were used, […]
