Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect All chemically treated alfalfa had faster drying rates than the untreated control.
- Intervention effect Drying agents increased the undigestible N, NDF and ADF compared with the untreated control.
- Intervention effect Drying agent application decreased the rate of ruminal ADF digestion.
- Intervention effect Additional S increased the proportion of indigestible DM, N and NDF regardless of DA concentration.
- Intervention effect Digestion rate for N increased for Lo‐DA/S and Hi‐DA compared with Lo‐DA and Hi‐DA/S.
- Intervention effect S addition increased the digestion rate of NDF.
- Intervention effect S addition decreased the digestion rate of ADF.
- Intervention effect Hi‐DA treatments had higher NDF and ADF digestion rates than Lo‐DA treatments.
- Intervention effect Chemical treatment had a variable effect on ruminal nutrient availability.
