Prediction models for organic matter digestibility and net energy value of green whole plant maize used for silage

Abstract

254 in vivo trials on sheep led to prediction models for in vivo organic matter digestibility (DMO) and net energy value of green whole plant maize used for silage. The proposed equations are able to predict DMO with a residual standard deviation from 1.88 to 1.98 point according to used predictors (chemical constituents and (a) pepsin-cellulase digestibility).
