DOI: 10.1007/s10457-019-00479-0
Abstract: Temperate grass and legume yield and quality are markedly reduced during hot, dry summer months in the southern USA; therefore, browse species could add feed options for small ruminants during this season. Our objective was… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.anifeedsci.2018.08.011
Abstract: Abstract Sustainable ruminant livestock production could benefit from feedstuffs containing condensed tannin (CT) if they maintained or improved livestock health and productivity while reducing the excretion of urinary nitrogen (N), which can be readily lost… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skaf102.372
Abstract: Throughout Kansas, invasive grass species are taking over native prairie and grasslands, thus reducing the quantity and quality of native grasses for ruminants to graze. Ultimately, complete eradication is unlikely for some invasive species, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/plphys/kiae283
Abstract: Lespedeza potaninii, a xerophytic subshrub belonging to the legume family, is native to the Tengger Desert and is highly adapted to drought. It has important ecological value due to its drought adaptability, but the underlying… read more here.
