This chapter focuses on conserving forage as hay or silage. Conserving forage is an essential component of ruminant livestock production systems in most temperate climates, but in subtropical and tropical regions the use ...

Eating a combination of forages with different chemistries (i.e., nutrients, beneficial compounds such as tannins) may enhance ruminant nutrition and reduce environmental impacts relative to eating single forages. I explored ...

Loggerhead turtles Caretta caretta use a wide variety of foraging strategies, and some populations forage in sub-optimal habitats. Different foraging strategies may not be equiva- lent in terms of fitness and may result ...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of the grazing age in the in vitro digestibility of the neutral detergent fiber of forages in the highlands and the lowlands dairy farms in Costa Rica. Nine forages ...

Food searching activity by subterranean termites involves workers, soldiers and nymphs. The present study was carried out for elucidating aspects of nymph foraging behavior in Brazil where the species Coptotermes gestroi ...
