Comparison of Methods of Vitro Dry Matter Digestibility for Ten Feeds

摘要

The objectives were to determine if the in vitro dry matter (DM) digestibility was similar by using a traditional method compared to the new DAISU~II sys- tem and to determine if in vitro DM digestibility was similar for sources of inoculum from two different donor cow diets, all forage or total mixed ration. Ten feeds were digested by the traditional method, the DAICY~II method with same feeds in a digestion ves- Sel, and the DAISY~II method with different feeds in a Digestion vessel.
