Variation of in situ rumen degradation of crude protein and amino acids and in vitro digestibility of undegraded feed protein in rapeseed meals

Animal, 2013
In this study, 10 samples of rapeseed meal (RSM) from 10 different oil plants in Germany were examined. In situ rumen degradation of CP was determined by incubation over 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 72 h in duplicate per time point using three rumen fistulated

STELLAR‐CB: Synthetic Temporal LSTM for Livestock Activity Recognition—Cow Behaviour

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study introduces a novel framework combining LSTM networks with SMOTE to address class imbalance in precision livestock farming. It improves the detection of rare behaviours in livestock, achieving state‐of‐the‐art performance while reducing computational overhead, offering a practical, breed‐agnostic solution for enhancing automated behaviour ...

Rumen digestion and rumen outflow rate in deer fed fresh chicory (Cichorium intybus) or perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne)

, 1997
Pure swards of chicory (Cichorium intybus) and perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) were grown at Palmerston North, New Zealand. They were cut daily and fed hourly at 2·25 kg dry matter (DM)/day to eight hand-reared, rumen-fistulated castrated red

Influence of roasting, gamma ray irradiation and microwaving on ruminal dry matter and crude protein digestion of cottonseed

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2016
The aim of the current study was to compare the effect of different physical processing methods including roasting at 140 °C for 15 (R15) or 30 minutes (R30), gamma ray irradiation (γ-irradiation) at doses of 15 (γ15), 30 (γ30) and 45 (γ45) kGy, and ...

Futures of Transit Work: Contesting Devaluation and Neoliberal Automation in Bus Transit

Anthropology of Work Review, Volume 47, Issue 1, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Being a bus operator has long meant access to middle class wages, quality benefits, and union membership, forms of security increasingly rare amid growing precarity. But transit is in trouble. In the wake of the COVID‐19 pandemic and decades of disinvestment, bus operators face mounting time pressure, frequent violence, and eroding job ...

Effects of sheep breed and soybean meal supplementation on rumen environment and degradation kinetics

, 2013
The aim of this study was to evaluate if the in vivo digestibility and intake differences, observed in previous studies, between Ile-de-France (IF) and Churra-da-Terra-Quente (CTQ) sheep breeds, were due to rumen environment and degradability differences.

A Diverse Pasture Grazing System Enhances Ewe and Lamb Performance Over a Three‐Year Grazing Study

Grass and Forage Science, Volume 81, Issue 3, July/September 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐output pasture‐based ruminant production systems in temperate regions are typically based on perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.; PRG) swards. Multispecies swards can improve animal performance; however, evidence from multi‐year, full‐system experiments remain limited.

The use of a tannin crude extract from Cistus ladanifer L. to protect soya-bean protein from degradation in the rumen

Animal, 2007
Cistus ladanifer L. (CL) is a perennial shrub abundant in dry woods and dry land of Mediterranean zone, with high level of tannins. Tannins bind to protein, preventing its degradation in the digestive compartments.

In Situ Rumen Degradation Characteristics and Bacterial Colonization of Corn Silages Differing in Ferulic and p-Coumaric Acid Contents

, 2022
In plant cell wall, ferulic acid (FA) and p-coumaric acid (pCA) are commonly linked with arabinoxylans and lignin through ester and ether bonds. These linkages were deemed to hinder the access of rumen microbes to cell wall polysaccharides.
