Description

In S.E. Spain, livestock is mostly fed with the subproducts from cultivation of cereals. As a result of the limited feed resources available and because of the growth restriction imposed by climate, several feeding gaps occur along the year : at the end of summer, during winter, and at the end of spring. In a search of new fodder resources to cover the mentioned feeding gaps, a first step was to compare the palatability of the main fodder species present in cultivated and range areas.
