Abstract
Four adult horses were used in a trial in latin square design (4 X 4). The treatments were: AH - alfafa hay ( Medicago sativa L.), CH - coastcross hay ( C. dactylon Pers) and EH - stargrass hay ( Cynodon. nenfluensis L.). The experiment lasted 65 days, devided as following: a 5-day pre-experimental period, and 4 experimental periods of 15 days (10 days adaptation and 5 days total feces collection). The analysis of variance showed difference (P < 0.05) between the tratments only for the crude protein digestibility coefficients, AH = 66.2; CH = 52.5; TH = 58.8 and EH = 29.0%.
