A study was conducted using lactating Holstein cows with ruminal and duodenal cannulas in a 4 x 4 Latin square design to investigate fibrolytic enzyme supplementation on site and extent of nutrient digestion. The four diets consisted of 45% concentrate, 10% barley silage, and 45% cubed alfalfa hay (dry matter basis) and differed in enzyme supplementation: 1) control cubes, 2) cubes treated with 1 g of enzyme mixture/kg of cubes, 3) cubes treated with 2 g of enzyme mixture/kg of cubes, and 4… Expand
