The objectives of the present work were to determine nitrogen compounds flow into the abomasum, total carbohydrate and organic matter ruminal degradation, microbial efficiency, N-NH3 concentration and ruminal pH in cattle fed with diets based on corn silage, elephant grass silage and Tifton-85 bermudagrass hay. Six ruminal and abomasal fistulated cattle were utilized in a double 3 × 3 latin square. Abomasal digesta dry matter of and microbial dry matter flows were determined by use of indigestible neutral detergent fiber […]
