Journal of Agriculture and Rural Development in the Tropics and Subtropics, 2012 Optimizing the composition of manure has the potential to reduce nutrient losses to the environment and to increase crop yields. In this study the effect of dietary ratios of carbon (C) to nitrogen (N) and neutral detergent fibre (NDF) to soluble ...

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.The objective of this study was to evaluate the predictions of the small ruminant nutrition system (SRNS) for the digestibility of dietary nutrients and the energy requirements of goats in early lactation. Forty‐eight Alpine goats were assigned to a completely randomized design. During 8 weeks of lactation, six goats were slaughtered per week.

Ruminant Beslemede NDF ve ADF'nin Önemi
, 2014 Hayvan beslemede kullanılan kaba yemler yapısal olan (selüloz, lignin, hemiselüloz) ve olmayan karbonhidratlardan (organik asitler, şekerler) oluşur. Monogastrik hayvanlar kaba yemlerdeki bu yapısal karbonhidratları sindiremezken, ruminatlar selülotik mikroorganizmalar sayesinde bu yapısal karbonhidratları sindirebilmektedirler.

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.Urochloa species are widely used in silvopastoral systems (SPS), but production losses highlight the need for more productive forages. This study evaluated agronomic, physiological, chemical composition, and in vitro digestibility responses of Urochloa brizantha cv. Piatã and Megathyrsus maximus cvs.

Effects of Lactic Acid Bacteria on Fermentation Quality and Microbiome of Leymus chinensis Silage
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.Ensiled Leymus chinensis are an important feedstuff for ruminants in large parts of the world. These results suggested that the addition of Lactobacillus plantarum or Lactobacillus buchneri regulated the ensiling performance by shaping the microbial community and metabolic pathways.

Importance Sampling of the Micrograin Visible NDF
Computer Graphics ForumAbstractImportance sampling of visible normal distribution functions (vNDF) is a required ingredient for the efficient rendering of microfacet‐based materials. In this paper, we explain how to sample the vNDF for the micrograin material model [LRPB23], which has been recently improved to handle height‐normal correlations through a new Geometric ...

Performance of Beef Cattle Under Grazing as Affected by Urochloa decumbens Cultivars
Grass and Forage Science, Volume 81, Issue 2, April-June 2026.ABSTRACT Testing animal performance under grazing is fundamental to determine the potential of recently released, high‐yielding Urochloa decumbens hybrids. The objective was to evaluate the weight gain of young bulls grazing on pastures of U. decumbens cultivars Basilisk, BRS Carinás, and BRS Poraitê, as well as to assess the nutritive value and plant ...
