Effects of supplemental degradable intake protein on intake and digestibility of bermuda hay

Mathis, C.P.; Cochran, R.C.; Heldt, J.S.; Woods, B.C.; Stokka, Gerald L.; Olson, K. C.; Titgemeyer, Evan C.
A study with 16 ruminally fistulated beef

steers fed Bermuda hay ad libitum showed that

the intake and digestibility of hay was not influenced

by increasing levels of supplemental

degradable intake protein (DIP). However, the

hay used in this study was of medium quality;

lower quality Bermuda hay with lower CP may

respond to supplemental DIP.
