Rumen microbial protein synthesis and nitrogen efficiency as affected by tanniferous and non‐tanniferous forage legumes incubated individually or together in Rumen Simulation Technique

Abstract

The potential of sainfoin to improve protein supply, demonstrated either individually or in combination with a high-performance forage legume, indicates its potential usefulness in complementing protein-deficient ruminant diets and high-quality forages rich in rumen-degradable protein. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
