Twelve cows were allotted to three 4 × 4 Latin Squares to evaluate pH, ammonium nitrogen, microbial protein production, number of protozoa in the rumen, plasma and milk urea concentration and balance of nitrogen compounds. Treatments consisted of maize silage or sugarcane with whole cottonseed, at 0, 7 or 14%. There were no differences on pH between sugarcane treatments, despite the reduction of values after the beginning of feeding. Ammonium nitrogen values were kept above 15 mg/dL after 6 hours […]
