Effects of different forage proportions in fermented total mixed ration on muscle fatty acid profile and rumen microbiota in lambs

ConclusionOverall, oat-based roughage in FTMR could promote a beneficial lipid pattern in the Longissimus lumborum muscles of lambs. These findings provide a potential insight into diet effects on fatty acid profile and the rumen microbiome of lambs, which may help make decisions regarding feeding.
