Abstract
1. The influence of tannins on the digestion of a small ruminant was investigated. 2. A 1% tannic acid diet was compared with a normal diet. 3. The digestion of protein decreased by 7.04%, fibre by 9.77% and energy utilization decreased by 7.94%. 4. Tannic acid has a marked depressing effect on the digestibility of the steenbok.Entities:
