Popis:	An experiment examined the intake, growth responses and rumen digestion of young sheep fed ad libitum oat or barley straws alone or supplemented with approximately isonitrogenous amounts of barley grain and urea (Bar/N), safflower seed meal (SAF) or linseed meal (LIN) supplements provided at 3 day intervals. The supplements comprised 15–22% of total dry matter (DM) intake. Sheep offered either of the straws alone consumed 35.0–37.2 g DM/kg liveweight (LW0.75) per day of straw and an estimated 2.03–2.07 MJ metabolizable energy (ME) per day, and lost 85–97 g LW per day. Supplements increased (P
