Abstract

Three groups of six castrated male cattle aged 6,18 and 36 months and three corresponding groups of sheep received in turn three diets consisting of high-quality dried grass (A), low-quality grass (B) or 60% of B with 40% barley (C). For one-half of each 6-week period the grass was eaten in the long form (L) and for the other half, it was ground and pelleted (P).
