Chemical treatment of roughage [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2010
Chemical treatment of roughage has been the aim of studies for a long time. However, until nowadays, many questions are arisen due to the efficiency of additives used in relation to the variation of answers, either in nutritive value of treated roughage or in performance of animals feed with diet containing such roughage.

Domestic cattle (Bos taurus taurus) are motivated to obtain forage and demonstrate contrafreeloading. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Domestic cattle (Bos taurus taurus) are adapted to digest high-roughage diets, but in confinement they are commonly fed low-roughage, high-energy diets. This practice may leave cattle with an unfulfilled need to consume forage.
