Rumen inoculum (RI) was replaced by fresh faecal inoculum (FI) on microbial nitrogen equivalent. Microbial nitrogen in FI was estimated as total N minus N bound to neutral detergent in stover-fed bullocks and 2.8 gram of FI provided similar (6.4 mg) microbial N to that of 10 ml of RI. Extent and ...

An in vitro study was conducted to evaluate the optimum roughage to concentrate ratio in complete rations using sorghum stover (SS) as a roughage source since it is a main feed resource for urban and peri-urban dairies. Eight complete rations were prepared with roughage (R) to concentrate (C) rat...
