Comparison of conventional and Ankom’s filter bag technique (FBT) methodologies for determining neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber.

open access: yes, 2008
Neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (ADF) concentrations were analyzed by conventional and ANKOM’s filter bag technique methodologies using F57 filter bags for up to six determinations. The feed samples used were: corn grist, wheat middlings, soybean meal, canola meal, tifton 85 hay, rat hay, millet and corn silage.

Effect of Diet Neutral Detergent Fibre Content on Dry Matter Intake, Nutrient Digestibility, Growth Efficiency and Carcass Characteristics of Finishing South African Mutton Merino Wether Lambs

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Feeding South African Mutton Merino lambs low‐NDF lucerne hay diets improved nutrient digestibility, energy utilisation, growth efficiency, and carcass quality. Despite lower intake at the lowest NDF level, fibre digestibility and feed conversion improved, indicating that highly digestible, low‐NDF finishing diets enhance lamb growth and carcass traits.

Investigated Different Ratios of Cotton Seed Cake With Dried Sesbania sesban Leaves on the Feed Intake, Digestibility and Growth Performance of Semien Sheep

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
The price of feed cost is one of the main challenges for animal producers in Ethiopia. Sesbania is not utilized for animal feed and is commonly found in different geographical locations. Therefore, mixing of cotton seed cake with dried Sesbania sesban leaves at equal proportion improves biological performance of Semien sheep and economically visible ...

Multi‐Omics Reveals Phenethyl Acetate and Its Producer Lactiplantibacillus plantarum as Key Drivers of Enhanced Palatability in Alfalfa Silage

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
The quality and flavour profile of silage affect its palatability and the feed intake of ruminants. This study offers a novel strategy for optimising the synergistic fermentation of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and phenylethyl acetate, thereby enhancing alfalfa silage flavour quality and promoting sheep feed intake.
