In vitro digestibility trial forage diet composition*

Treatment†	Forage (g)	Supplemental feed (g)
RB	0.75	—
CS	0.75	—
BH	0.75	—
RB + 50:50	0.51	0.24
CS + CC:CSM	0.63	0.12
BH + 50:50	0.52	0.23

*Diets are based on a 250-kg steer consuming 2.5% BW in DM. Supplemental feed inclusion is estimated based on amount offered to animals in the 45-d backgrounding trial.

^†RB = annual ryegrass baleage harvested in the boot-to-early dough stage; CS = corn silage harvested in the milk stage; BH = Tifton 85 bermudagrass hay harvested on a 4-wk frequency from May through June 2015; 50:50 = 50% mixture of soybean hulls and 50% corn gluten feed, respectively; CC:CSM = 85% mixture of cracked corn and 15% mixture of cottonseed meal, respectively.
