Effect of manila palm (Veitchia merrillii Becc.) on rumen fermentation and microbial population in beef heifers by Tanitpan Pongjongmit, Thitima Norrapoke, Kampanat Phesatcha

“…Abstract The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of manila palm (MP) on rumen fermentation and rumen microbial ecology in beef cattle. Four Brahman crossbred heifers with an initial body weight (BW) of 250 ± 40 kg (1–1.5 years old) were randomly assigned according to a 4 × 4 Latin square design to the following treatments: (1) Control (0% concentrate powder MP), (2) 1% concentrate powder MP, (3) 3% concentrate powder MP, and (4) 5% concentrate powder MP. …”
