Effect of Replacing Total Mixed Ration with Pasture on Ruminal Fermentation
The Professional Animal Scientist, 2010 Mixed cultures of ruminal microorganisms were used to examine the fermentation profile of diets (DM basis) consisting of 1) 100% TMR, 2) 85:15 TMR:pasture, 3) 70:30 TMR:pasture, and 4) 55:45 TMR:pasture. The pasture portion of the diets consisted of annual ryegrass harvested at a height (5 to 7 cm) that simulated animal grazing.
