Sheep preference for different tanniniferous tree fodders and its relationship with in vitro gas production and digestibility

MA Alonso-Díaz, JFJ Torres-Acosta… - Animal Feed Science …, 2009 - Elsevier
Chemical composition, in vitro apparent dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), in vitro gas
production (IVGP), preference, eating rate (ER) and selectivity of leaves from four forage
trees were evaluated in hair sheep. In Experiment 1, fresh foliage of tanniniferous trees
(Lysiloma latisiliquum, Acacia pennatula and Piscidia piscipula) and Brosimum alicastrum
were offered ad libitum to hair sheep for 4h in a cafeteria experiment. Effective eating time
and ER (g/dry matter (DM)/min) were estimated from instantaneous measurements taken …
