Body

In vitro digestibility measurements reduce the variability in estimating cattle gains from forage intake measurements. The daily digestible forage intake requirements of range cattle appear similar to the requirements of cattle in feedlots./Se llevó a cabo el estudio en un pastizal tipo pino ponderosa cerca de Flagstaff, Arizona, E.U.A. Las ganancias del ganado bovino fueron relacionadas directamente con el consumo de forraje digestible y el consumo ordinario. El consumo de forraje digestible explica el 80% de las ganancias y el consumo ordinario explica el 75.3%. Se concluyó que la mejor evaluación de los pastizales es el consumo de forraje digestible.
