- Method / resource In monsoon, the IVDMD method over-estimated DMI by 4.8 % compared with the LR method.
- Method / resource In summer, the IVDMD method over-estimated DMI by 7.3 % compared with the LR method.
- Method / resource In winter, DMD estimated by both methods was similar.
- Method / resource Seasonal trends in DMI estimated by the two methods were similar.
- Method / resource DMI could be predicted with 91-93% confidence by the two faecal sampling methods.
- Method / resource The authors conclude that the rVDMD and LR methods estimate similar DMI and DMD in grazing sheep.
