Although crude protein (CP) concentration of maize is low it can contribute up to 30% of total CP in dairy cow rations [1]. However, information about CP degradation in the rumen of native maize grains is scarce. The objectives of this study therefore were 1.) to determine the in situ CP degradation characteristics and effective degradation (ED) of different maize genotypes, and 2.) to compare these characteristics with chemical CP fractions of the same grains.</span></span></p>
