Abstract

Studies indicated that proteolysis of alfalfa silage true protein is excessive during ensiling and in the rumen,which rend the true protein transformed into non-protein nitrogen(NPN).The NPN is poorly utilized by ruminants.In this paper the methods on effective utilization of alfalfa silage protein by ruminants especially by dairy cattle and problems need to further study were expounded in detail.
