Supplementation with Gliricidia sepium and Leucaena leucocephala on voluntary food intake, digestibility, rumen fermentation and live weight of crossbred steers offered Zea mays stover
Twenty intact and five fistulated crossbred steers were used in two experiments to examine the effect of supplementing maize stover with Gliricidia sepium or Leucaena leucocephala forage on intake, rumen fermentation, microbial protein supply and live weight changes.
