Abstract

The in vitro DM digestibility (IVDMD) of sorghum was positively correlated with CP content and was negatively correlated with acid-detergent fibre, neutral-detergent fibre, cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and silica contents. A regression equation to predict IVDMD from data on the contents of cell wall constituents and CP is given
