- Method / resource White clover CWOM content predicted organic matter digestibility with r2 0.74.
- Method / resource White clover cellulose content predicted organic matter digestibility with r2 0.67.
- Method / resource White clover hemicellulose content predicted organic matter digestibility with r2 0.72.
- Method / resource White clover potential CWOM degradability predicted organic matter digestibility with r2 0.72.
- Method / resource The intake prediction fits were at least as good as digestibility prediction fits.
- Recommendation The authors recommend CWOM-based equations because CWOM is easy to analyze.
