Description: Three forages (alfalfa, timothy, reed canary grass) and two cereal residues (barley straw, com stover) were chopped at 3 to 5 mm length, pretreated with ammonia, and hydrolyzed in the presence of a commercial enzyme mixture. Between 42 and 51% of total biomass was solubilized. The liquid hydrolyzate contained soluble sugars composed on average of 49% glucose, 25% xylose, and 26% other sugars. The non-hydrolyzed residue had a low fibre content, indicating a potentially good feed energy value, but its protein value was low because a high proportion of nitrogen was bound to the fibre.
