Influence of Different Cutting Dates on Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) Parameters and the Fatty Acid Compositions of Caramba Hay (Lolium multiflorum cv. caramba)

Influence of Different Cutting Dates on Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) Parameters and the Fatty Acid Compositions of Caramba Hay (Lolium multiflorum cv. caramba)

The aim of the study was to determine the influence of different cutting dates on Cornell Net Carbohydrate and ProteinSystem (CNCPS) parameters and the fatty acid (FAs) compositons of caramba hay (Lolium multiflorum cv caramba).The samples were taken from the five randomized plots at the three different cuts (first cut:before blossom, secondcut:blossom 50%, and third cut:after blossom). The samples were analyzed including the crude protein (CP), etherextract (EE), CP fractions (A= NPN, B1= fast, B2= intermediate, B3= slow and C= not fermented and available for theanimal), degradable intake protein (DIP), undegradable intake protein (UIP) and the FAs compositions (C14:0, C16:0,C18:0, C18:1, C18:2 and C18:3). The CP, EE and A1 fraction were negatively affected by the different cutting dates(P
