Ruminal Disappearance and Passage Rates in Fresh Nezasa Dwarf Bamboo Growing in Japanese Native Pasture
Description
Nezasa dwarf bamboo (Pleioblastus chino makino) is one of major native forages for grazing in Japan. However its nutritional utilisation in the rumen has been little studied. The object of this research was to measure ruminal disappearance and passage rates in fresh Nezasa dwarf bamboo compared with improved grass.
