麦草和其它富含纤维的农副产品以及各种本地生长的禾草,经过氨处理烘箱的加工以后,可以大幅度地提高消化率和蛋白质的利用水平。这种氨处理烘箱是由一个英国的制造者引入美国的。据制造者介绍,这些烘箱在提高麦草营养价值方面是值得采用的。因为经过这种烘箱处理后的麦草,消化率可提高50%,蛋白质的利用水平可提高300%。此外,由于处理后的麦草具有很好的适口性,因而乳牛的采食量很高,肉牛和羊也很喜食。陈列于 SFS 草原的9台烘箱样品,具有0.6—3吨范围内的多种容量规格,可容纳各种大小、形状和重量的草捆。每个样品配有一个6——8千瓦的加热器组,处理一吨麦草的耗 Wheatgrass and other fiber-rich agricultural and sideline products, as well as a variety of locally grown grasses, can significantly improve digestibility and protein utilization after processing ammonia-treated ovens. This ammonia treatment oven was introduced into the United States by a British manufacturer. According to the manufacturer, these ovens are worth using in improving the nutritional value of wheat straw. Because after this oven-treated wheat straw, digestibility can be increased by 50%, the level of protein utilization can be increased by 300%. In addition, because of the good palatability of processed wheat straw, the intake of dairy cows is very high, and beef cattle and sheep also enjoy eating. Nine oven samples on display in the SFS Prairie range from a variety of capacities in the 0.6-3 ton range to bales of any size, shape and weight. Each sample is equipped with a heater group of 6 - 8 kilowatts, handling one ton of wheat straw consumption
