Increasing the concentration decreased retention nitrogen amino acids, crude fat fatty acids diets. 3. Dietary (MJ/kg) was also affected by rate inclusion linseed, values decreasing from 14.39 to 12.49. 4. In general, a linear regression model explained relationship between dietary nutritive parameters. However, quadratic...

Mixed cereal and sheep ( Ovis aries ) production systems in the Mediterranean area Middle East region rely on annual forage legumes as a source of complementary forage. Fractionation carbohydrates (CHO) crude protein (CP) into chemical entities refined biological significance may improve utilization these feed resources. Fresh dried (field‐cured) common vetch Vicia sativa L.) samples were collected during two growing seasons (1996–1997 1997–1998) at La Poveda Field Station central Spain with...
