Forage Nonstructural Carbohydrates and Nutritive Value as Affected by Time of Cutting and Species

Total nonstructural carbohydrates (TNC) provide readily fermentable energy to rumen microbes and their increased concentration in forages improves N use efficiency in dairy cows (Bos taurus). This study was conducted to compare TNC concentration of grass and legume forage species and to determine ho...
