Abstract
It is widely accepted that the fermentation characteristics of grass silages will affect the voluntary intake of animals offered silage. Relationships between voluntary silage intake and various parameters measurable in silage have beei demonstrated and they provide, with varying degrees of accuracy, methods of predicting voluntary silage intake. The objective of this study was to compare the voluntary intake and animal performance supported by two grass silages with similar ME contents but differing FME: ME ratios.
