Rates of Production of Individual Volatile Fatty Acids in the Rumen of Lactating Cows1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The rumen fermentation rates in individual lactating cows were measured in four different experiments. The results disclosed that the amounts and proportions of volatile acids formed could vary widely. In one case, a marked difference in the proportions of the acids produced arose within the experiment and correlated with a difference in the proportion of methane formed.
