Abstract

In situ DM and nitrogen degradahillty of guar meal (GM), soyabean meal (SBM), sunflower cake (SFC) and fish meal (FM) was determined using three rumen fistukited bucks, maintained on the basal diet of moth chara. The nitrogen and DM disappearance increased with increase in incubation period. The potential and effective degradability (ED) of N and DM for all experimental feeds was calculated. Lowest ED both for DM and N was observed for FM, while SFC had highest ED for N and GM for DM.
