• Animal CHON (increase lysine) bone meal (decrease methionine): meat and bone meal, skimmed milk, fish meal

• Plant CHON (decrease lysine): soya and copra

Roughage

• High in fiber content (>18%)

• Low in net energy per unit weight usually of their high fiber and H2O content

Roughage

Examples:

• forage

Feed Supplement
