In order to estimate the nutrient value of three dominant range species; Festuca ovina, Trifolium montanum and Alopecurus textilis via proximate analyses and gas production technique, samples were collected in three stages during grazing period from 26th May to 1th September in six areas of Sabalan Mountain in North West of Iran. Results showed that […]
The present study was conducted to identify nutritional value of Rumex obtusifolius in three phenological stages (vegetative growth, flowering, and maturity). Samples were randomly taken in pastures of Saravan in Rasht, Iran in 2015. After drying and grinding, the chemical compositions of Crude Protein (CP), Crude Fiber (CF), Ether Extract (EE), Total Ash (ASH), Neutral […]
The objective of the study was to evaluate the nutritional value of some native plants, collected from Algerian arid zones by in vitro gas production method. The volatile fatty acids (VFA) of samples were also determined in the culture medium. This work was carried out in 2011 and was conducted in comparison to a control […]
