Predicting ruminal degradability and chemical composition of corn silage using near-infrared spectroscopy and multivariate regression.

PLoS ONE
The aim of this study was to develop and validate regression models to predict the chemical composition and ruminal degradation parameters of corn silage by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR).

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Ruminal fermentation and methane emissions of corn silage harvested at the R4 and R5 phenological stages

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems
Background: Corn silage is widely used in ruminant feeding; however, the ruminal utilization depends on the physiological stage at which the ensiling process is carried out.

In vitro and in sacco determination of neutral detergent fibre digestibility of treated cereal straw

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cereal straw is hardly digestible due to its complex bonds of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. That is why chemical treatments, such as with sodium hydroxide, may help to loosen the bonds and thus increase ruminal digestibility. Neutral detergent fibre (NDF) digestibility is a good predictor of feed intake.

Delivery of a coated bioactive from a rumen controlled-release device [PDF]

, 2008
Ruminants possess a unique digestive system. Using the high metabolic potential of the symbiotic microflora of the rumen, ruminants are capable of digesting plant material and obtaining nutrients and energy from this process.

Intake, Digestibility, and Ruminal Degradability of Shredded Hay

Journal of Dairy Science, 1994
Thirty-two Outaouais intact male lambs averaging 39.1 kg were assigned randomly to a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments consisting of two forages and two methods of harvesting to determine intake and digestibility. The four treatments fed during the experiment consisted of alfalfa and timothy hays harvested with either a prototype mat maker or a

Effect of dehydration on ruminal degradability of lucerne [PDF]

Annales de Zootechnie, 2000
The effects of industrial dehydration and a subsequent compression at high pressures on rumen degradability of lucerne were determined in 3 samples obtained at harvest or after the process of dehydration and compression of this forage. Rumen degradability of dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) was determined by the nylon bag technique in 3 ruminally ...
