| Item | % (on a Dry Matter Basis) |
|---|---|
| Moisture (% as fed) | 10.29 |
| Dry matter (% as fed) | 89.71 |
| Crude protein | 4.43 |
| Ether extract (lipid) | 4.03 |
| Ash | 3.18 |
| Total crude fiber | 24.35 |
| 2 Nitrogen-free extract (NFE) | 53.72 |
| 3 Organic matter | 96.82 |
| Total fiber fractions: | |
| A. Acid detergent fiber | 45.75 |
| B. Neutral detergent fiber | 65.34 |
| Gross Energy (kcal/kg) | 4974.52 |
1 Chemical composition analysis conducted in duplicate; 2 NFE (calculated by difference) = 100-(Moisture + protein + lipid + ash + fiber); 3 Organic matter = 100-Ash.
