Utilization of barley straw by steers: Effects of replacing urea with protein, source of protein and quantity of rumen degradable nitrogen on straw degradation, liquid and particle passage rates and intake

The study aimed at examining the effects of replacing urea with protein nitrogen (N), source of protein and the quantity of rumen degradable N (RDN) in the diets of steers on rumen fermentation, outflow rate and intake. In experiment one, six ruminally cannulated Friesian steers were used in a repli...
