متن کاملDry matter intake, apparent digestibility and excretion of purine derivatives in sheep fed tropical legume hay.
Four ruminally cannulated wethers (31+/-1.3kg) were used in an experiment with a 4x4 Latin square design to estimate the DM intake, apparent digestibility, nitrogen balance, rumen ammonia and microbial protein production. The sheep had ad libitum access to either Cassia rotundifolia (Cassia), Lablab purpureus (Lablab), Macroptilium atropurpureum (Siratro) or Stylosanthes guianensis (Stylo). Dry...
متن کامل(Phalaris arundinacea L.), and Native Plants in Wisconsin Wet Meadows
1 Corresponding author: [email protected]; (608) 238-4673; fax: (608) 262-7509 ABSTRACT: Twelve wet meadows in Dane County, Wisconsin showed vegetation patterns that correlate with hydrologic disturbance and presence of a clonal invasive grass, Phalaris arundinacea L., at two scales, 4500-m2 (0.45 ha) “sites” and 1-m2 plots. Sites with indicators of hydrologic disturbance had lower species rich...
متن کاملFuel Pellet Production from Reed Canary Grass
This thesis focuses on two main areas: methods for assessing regional supply potentials of reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea L.) (RCG); and process technology for the production of high-quality RCG pellets. Partial equilibrium modelling, incorporating a break-even price approach, was used to examine supply potentials for RCG in Västerbotten County, northern Sweden. A remote sensing method...
متن کاملInfluence of dry matter intake, dry matter digestibility, and feeding behavior on body weight gain of beef steers.
This study was conducted to determine the relative contribution of feeding behavior, DMI, apparent DM digestibility (DMD), and passage rate on variation in BW gain. One hundred forty-three crossbred steers were used in this study to determine the factors that contribute to variation in BW gain. Steers were 304 ± 1 d of age and had an initial BW of 338 ± 3 kg. Steers had ad libitum access to fee...
