There were significant (P < 0.01) differences between straws from different cereals in terms of NDF, ADF and ADL contents, but CP and OM content not affected by source of cereal (P > 0.05). There were no significant differences between potential gas production (A), of straws from the four cereals. Results of this study shows that inspite of some differences in cell wall fractions of straw from these four cereal grains they had similar kinetics of gas production indicating similar fermentation pattern.
