Research abstract
Agriculture or forestry lignocellulose, including millions of tons of yearly waste, is a large potential source of improved animal feeds. However, most of these lignocellulose materials have low digestibility for ruminants and, consequently, low animal production potential. The purpose of this project is modification of various lignocellulose materials for their usage as high-digestible ruminant feed.
