The aim was to obtain new results to estimate the relation between place as well as kind of nutrient digestion and energetic utilization of rations in cattle. The ruminal nutrient digestibility was measured in adult oxen on feeding level 1.7 by means of duodenal reentrant cannula for 9 rations including the starch sources barley, maize and potatoes and with their energy parts of 50, 25 and 10%. The intake of starch ranged from 484 to 2573 g/animal.d and the amounts of ruminal and postruminal digested starch from 444 to 2336 as well as 10 to 284 g/animal.d. For the organic matter, starch, water soluble carbohydrates and N free residual substances high relative parts of ruminal digested from apparent digested nutrients were measured with values between 78 and 88, 83 and 98, 93 and 97 as well as 88 and 100% respectively. | lld:pubmed |
