- W2518974732 abstract "Differences in the in vitro digestible dry matter (DDM) of 26 native forage species in south Texas were determined using rumen inoculum from white-tailed deer, sheep, goat, and steer. The mean DDM of all forages was significantly different for each animal species (P<.OS). Deer was the most efficient overall digestor of forbs, shrubs, and prickly pear. Of the grasses sampled, the goat was the most efficient digestor with the steer second. In overall efficiency of digestion of all forages tested, the deer was highest with 52.5%, goat with 49.2%, sheep with 47.5%, and steer with 46.6%. These data indicate that caution should be exercised when using inoculum from one ruminant species to estimate DDM for another species. Certain plant species were determined to meet the TDN requirements for maintenance levels of the four ruminants. Proper management of south Texas rangeland for various ruminant species requires knowledge of the available food supply for the animals being produced. Forage production and quality relative to the animals requirements are necessary to determine stocking rate and combinations of animals grazed. The production of quality animals requires availability of a high quality diet. Plants should not only be palatable but also nutritious. The relative importance of these plants in the rangeland vegetation complex will depend on the animal species or combination of species being managed since forage plants may vary in their digestibility when consumed by different animal species. Therefore, our objective in this study has been to determine the in vitro dry matter digestibility of many of these plants in evaluating their nutritional importance. It is important to consider the nutritional requirements of whitetailed deer since (1) deer is one of the most numerous ruminants on the Rio Grande Plain, (2) economic returns from deer rival or exceed at times those from cattle, and (3) the production of quality animals requires the availability of a quality diet. Often the wild ruminant is “taken for granted” in that range management practices do not provide much consideration for its needs. Knowledge of the nutritional requirements of white-tailed deer, and which plants are capable of providing adequate levels, should influence range management practices, particularly brush clearing operations." @default.
