Spain, James M.Lascano, Carlos E.[Estrategias para mejorar la eficiencia de utilización de sabanas nativas en el trópico húmedo]Estrategias para mejorar la eficiencia de utilización de sabanas nativas en el trópico húmedo

A grazing trial was carried out in the Eastern Plains of Colombia to compare legume selection by transiently grazed oesophageal-fistulated steers and non-fistulated steers permanently grazing pastures. The 6 pasture types investigated were Arachis pintoi-Brachiaria humidicola mixtures which diffe...

Lascano, Carlos E.Peters, MichaelHolmann, Federico J.[Arachis pintoi in the humid tropics of Colombia : A forage legume success story]Arachis pintoi in the humid tropics of Colombia : A forage legume success story

Improved forages play an important role in sustaining the livelihoods of small- and medium-scale farmers in the tropics, mainly as a result of their positive effects on livestock production and contribution to economic and environmental sustainability. However, in many regions of the tropics, the...

We conducted an experiment to determine the effects of concentration and astringency of extractable and bound condensed tannins (CT) in tropical legumes on intake, digestibility, and nitrogen (N) utilization by sheep. The test legumes (Desmodium ovalifolium and Flemingia macrophylla) had similar ...

A trial with sheep (housed in metabolic cages, and fitted with ruminal and duodenal cannulas) fed sun-dried forage of two Calliandra calothyrsus provenances (San Ramon —CIAT 22310 and Patulul CIAT— 22316) harvested in sites with contrasting soil fertility was carried out to further define the bio...

A feeding trial with sheep was carried out at the Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT) in Colombia to investigate the concept of using mixtures of sun-dried tropical shrub legumes to dilute tannin levels in the diet and improve nitrogen (N) utilisation by ruminants. Intake, digesti...
