Comparative Study on Digestion and Utilization of Diets Introduced into the Rumen and Abomasum of Goats

Abstract: To study the singularity of fore-stomach of ruminants, the utilization of nutrients and energy was compared between ruminal and abomasal feedings using goats fitted with permanent fistulas both at the rumen and at the abomasum as well as a tracheal cannula. The results obtained were as follows: 1) Apparent digestibility of starch was very high in ruminal feeding (98.6%) but low digestibility was observed when the same diet was infused into the abomasum (57.0%). When a diet containing 30% glucose and 45% cornst… Show more
