The degradability of starch fiom various feedstuffs was investigated in vitro by incubation of 500-mg amounts in 50 ml of a 3:1 rumen fluidlbuffer solution at 39Β°C for 6 h. The rumen fluid was obtained from one of three cows fed on hay or hay and concentrate. The degree of degradation a f e r 6 h in

## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** Two factorial studies compared enzymic and __in sacco__ methods to estimate degradation of ruminant foods. Enzyme degradation (__in vitro__ = enzyme) was determined from the release of leucineβequivalent amino acid (LA) crude protein (CP) from sunflower meal (SF), maize
Three ruminally cannulated dry cows were used in a Latin square design to investigate the relationship between microbial fibrolytic enzyme activities and in succo cell wall degradation of two gramineous hays, in which cell wall content ranged from 510 g kg-' DM for the regrowth to 687 g kg-' DM for
