- W4246607738 abstract "1. Pangola grass ( Digitaria decumbens ) grown with and without calcium fertilizer was cut at three stages of regrowth to measure voluntary intake of dry matter (DM) and digestibility of various components of the dried-grass diet by sheep kept in metabolism crates. To determine the extent of a simple Ca deficiency half the sheep on each diet were supplemented with 1·4g Ca/d. Retention times of the various dietary components in the reticulo-rumen were also determined. 2. Feeding a Ca supplement had no effect on voluntary intake or digestibility. 3. Ca fertilizer increased the Ca content of the grass from 2·2 to 3·8 g/kg DM and DM digestibility from 0·455 to 0·476 ( P < 0·01) due to an increase in the digestibility of the hemicellulose. 4. Voluntary intake was increased from 38·8 to 43·2 g/kg body-weight 0·75 per d by Ca fertilizer due to an 18% reduction in the period of time the DM was retained in the reticulo-rumen. 5. Regressions relating voluntary intake to DM digestibility for the Ca-fertilized and control grass were significantly different ( P < 0·01). When compared at the same DM digestibility the voluntary intake of the Ca-fertilized grass was 2·6 g/kg body-weight 0·75 per d higher than that of the control. 6. It was concluded that Ca fertilizer increased both DM digestibility and voluntary intake as a result of changes in the structural composition of the grass and not by a simple increase in the Ca content of the diet." @default.
