Popis:	The in sacco dry matter (DM) degradability of diets based on maize stover harvested at three stages of maturity and supplemented with graded levels of desmodium (Desmodium intortum cv. Greenleaf) hay were estimated from degradability of the individual feeds and their corresponding DM intake. The estimated DM degradability of the diets was used for prediction of DM intake (DMI), digestible DM intake (DDMI), DM digestibility (DMD) and growth rate of sheep feeding on the diets. The desmodium hay had significantly higher (P
