Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of cow size on dry matter intake, residual feed intake, metabolic response, and cow performance
TL;DR: Although cow BW was independent of RFI and T3 and T4 levels tended to be greater in lighter BW cows, DMI was consistently greater for cows with heavier BW and higher RFIvalues.

Intake, growth and carcass characteristics of lambs consuming low digestible hay and cereal grain
TL;DR: Feeding barley or oat grain at 0.9–1% of live weight daily to lambs consuming poor quality hay may not substantially improve carcass quality, but may be useful in maintaining body condition of lambs through the dry season for slaughter out of season.

Influence of mangosteen peel powder as a source of plant secondary compounds on rumen microorganisms, volatile fatty acids, methane and microbial protein synthesis in swamp buffaloes
TL;DR: Evaluating the effect of mangosteen peel powder (MSP) on rumen fermentation, nutrient digestibility and microbial population in swamp buffaloes fed on a rice straw based diet revealed that there was no difference between treatments on dry matter intake and nutrient Digestibility by MSP supplementation ( P >0.05).
