Popis: This study examined the supplementation effects of gliricidia leaves (GL, Gliricidia sepium ), lerak fruit (LF, Sapindus rarak ), or hibiscus leaves (HL, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis ) on in vitro rumen fermentation and methanogenesis and made a comparison with the Napier grass (NG, Pennisetum purpureum ) grass. In vitro rumen fermentation was designed according to a randomized complete block design with four replications and seven treatments: NG, GL, LF, HL, NG 70% + GL 30%, NG 70% + LF 30% and NG 70% + HL 30%. The generated data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Duncan’s multiple range test and compared among treatment means. Addition of a plant containing saponin such as LF or HL to NG did not alter gas production after 24 and 48 h of incubation period in comparison to NG alone. The HL alone or blended with NG produced the highest IVOMD during the fermentation process as compared to other treatments (P
