Comparison of Chromium Ratio and Lignin Ratio Techniques for Determination of Digestibility of Hays1

J. G. Archibald, D. F. Owen, Jr., H. Fenner and H. D. Barnes

Massachusetts Agricultural Experiment Station, Amherst

ABSTRACT

Digestion coefficients for dry matter, protein, energy, crude fiber, and N-free extract from 16 individual trials show that the chromium trioxide method for determining digestibility of forages gave somewhat more uniform results than did the lignin method, as indicated by generally lower standard errors of the mean values.
