The effect of chopped hay on feed intake, eating rate and rumination time was studied. Relationships between these variables were evaluated. Ten pregnant cows at the end of lactation were each given 3 kg of concentrates daily and chopped or unchopped hay ad libitum. No significant effect of chopping the hay on dry matter intake of hay and total ruminating time could be shown. However the duration of rumination per kg of hay consumed was lowered significantly when chopped hay was given. Chopping the hay also caused a significant reduction in the number of boli per day. Daily hay intake proved to be positively correlated with duration of rumination. When unchopped hay was given, a higher eating rate was associated with a longer rumination time. When chopped hay was fed, no significant relationship between these parameters was found.
