ABSTRACT
Production of reneweable feedstocks for biodiesel have drawn attention to alternative
oilseed crops. Our objective was to determine DM and CP ruminal degradability and
intestinal digestibility of camelina meal (CAM) and carinata meal (CAR), compared
with canola meal (CAN), linseed meal (LIN), soybean meal (SBM), and distillers dried
grains with solubles (DDGS) as controls. In situ degradability measurements were done
using 3 multiparous, mid-late lactation ruminally cannulated Holstein cows. Sample
bags were ruminally incubated in duplicate for each cow and feedstuff for 0, 2, 4,
8, and 12 h and in triplicate for 24 and 48 h. Eight bags of each feed were incubated
at 12 h for use of the residues in determination of in vitro intestinal digestibility.
Ruminal particulate passage rate averaged 6.0%/h. Rate of DM degradation was greatest
(P < 0.05) for CAM and LIN and least for DDGS, whereas CAR and SBM were similar. Ruminally
degradable DM was greatest (P < 0.01) in CAM, CAR, and SBM. The CAM and CAR had the greatest (P < 0.05) RDP and least RUP. Intestinal digestible protein was similar (P > 0.05) for LIN, CAM, and CAR, which was greater (P < 0.05) than CAN and DDGS. Intestinally absorbable digestible protein was least for
CAM and CAR (P < 0.01) compared with the other feeds. Total digestible protein was similar (P > 0.05) for CAM and CAR compared with SBM and LIN. Results indicate that CAM and
CAR are highly degradable and comparable to SBM and LIN for protein utilization.
