Extract

Supplemental fat is commonly incorporate in diet of ruminant as to elevation of energy intake of the animals (Palmquist and Jenkins, 1980). It has been known that added fat was interfered rumen fermentation. Vegetable oils were pronounced in alteration of rumen fermentation than animal fats. Fumarate is a promising substance to reduce methanogenesis and fumarate is an intermediate of propionate production (Asanuma et al. , 1999). Yuangklang et al. (2005) found that added fumarate in tallow diet lowered gas production in vitro study and enhanced fat digestibility in beef cattle fed tallow containing sodium fumarate. Thus, the present experiment was to study the effect of fat source and sodium fumarate supplementation on nitrogen utilization.
