A trial was conduced to evaluate the effects of Tifton hay (Cynodon dactylon) supplemented with multinutrient blocks formulated using different molasses levels on digestibility, intake, and blood urea level. Four Hereford steers, one year old, weighing on average 196 kg in the beginning of the experiment, were assigned to a 4 x 4 latin square. The treatments were: Tifton hay and Tifton hay plus supplementation with either 25, 30, 35, and 40% molasses levels in multinutrient blocks. However, to include […]
