Chemical composition and the potential and effective degradabilities of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) of passion fruit residue (shelves) were studied in the varieties yellow (Passiflora edulis f. Flavicarpa Degener), purple (Passiflora edulis Sims) and sweet (Passiflora alata) and in the mixture of yellow and purple varieties. DM intake, ruminal concentrations of N-ammonium, volatiles fatty acids (VFA) and pH, and rate of liquid and solid rumen digesta flows were also studied. The residues (shelves) […]
