Popis: Indicators of rumen digestion of young cattle has been studied when fed with concentrates with high level of degradable protein and non-structural carbohydrates subjected to barothermal treatment. Extrusion of concentrated feed decreases degradability of concentrates protein by 26-28%. Correlation of indicators of rumen digestion in steers with the method of preparation for feeding with concentrates with high level of degradable protein and non-structural carbohydrates has been determined. So, in animals receiving feed subjected to barothermal treatment, the number of ciliates in rumen fluid increases by 5.4%, total nitrogen – by 2.9%, and concentration of ammonia and volatile fatty acids decreases by 8.1 and 3.4% Thus, processing of concentrates stimulates development of microflora of proventriculus and reduces the rumen protein loss. Barothermal treatment of concentrates with a high protein degradability and high level of non-structural carbohydrates increases productivity of animals and efficiency of feed. The average daily weight gain in animals of experimental group increases by 4.8-6.0%. As a result, the feed cost is reduced by 2.7-6.9%, and protein – by 2.6-5.7%.
