Summary:
Fig. 5.5. Legumes such as subterranean clover (T. subterraneum) and lucerne (M. sativa) support higher voluntary feed intakes (a) than grasses such as phalaris (P. aquatica) and ryegrass (L. perenne) at the same digestibility of dry matter. The higher intake of legumes reflects faster rate of passage (shorter retention time in the rumen (b)). Sources: Based on descriptions by Thornton and Minson (1973) and Freer and Jones (1984).
