In situ dry matter, organic matter, neutral and acid detergent fiber degradability and in vitro digestibility of green chopped or ensiled sugar cane and corn silage under different ruminal conditions The objectives of this study were to determine the in vitro dry matter (DMIVD) and organic matter (OMIVD) digestibilities and in situ degradability (ISD) of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF) of green chopped sugar cane (GCSC) or sugar cane silage (SCS), as well as corn silage (CS) under different ruminal conditions. For in vitro digestibility and in situ degradability trials, two dry Holstein cows were used (live weight of 450 kg). Diets were formulated to obtain different ruminal conditions by inclusion of two forage sources: GCSC or SCS. The ISD of DM, OM, NDF and ADF were evaluated by using 20 x 40 cm nylon bags (macro-bag), with 50 μm of porosity. Forages sources were incubated without previous sample processing (drying and grounding) during 0, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96h. Treatments consisted of a 3x2 hierarchy design (three forages and two ruminal conditions), with repeated measurements in both animals. Rumen fluid sample were taken to evaluate ruminal parameters regarding of each experimental diet, based on pH, ammonia-N (NNH3) and short chain fatty acids (SCFA). The experimental design was a randomized block with time-measurements sampling. Treatments had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the total SCFA molar concentrations. Sampling time affected significantly the molar concentrations of acetic acid and total SCFA, and the ruminal pH. Differences were also observed (P<0.05) for the soluble fraction (A), potentially degradable fraction (B), undegradable fraction (C) and potentially DM degradability (PD) of forages sources evaluated under different ruminal conditions. Organic matter degradability variables were also significantly affected by treatments (P<0.05), except for the degradation rate (%/h), which averaged 2.1%/h. Significant differences (P<0.05) were observed for NDF and ADF only in A fraction of both forages sources under different ruminal conditions, with mean values of 9.11 and 2.66%, respectively. The inocula used for the in vitro digestibility trial were collected from the animals fed with the experimental rations in order to achieve the different ruminal conditions, aiming to different ruminal conditions. The in vitro digestibilities of GCSC, SCS and CS were higher (60.82; 68.36 e 71.79, respectively) when inoculated in the ruminal conditions containing SCS added with Lactobacillus buchneri (SCS), as compared to GCSC (53.90; 54.54 e 62.02%). In conclusion, for the in situ as well for the in vitro trial, the SCS ration resulted in improved ruminal condition for the degradability and digestibility of the evaluated forages. The macro-bag protocol might be used for the A, B and C fractions studies, as welll as for the potential and effective degradability estimation of GCSC, SCS and CS.
