The addition of the slow release urea in alfalfa and oat cultures did not improve the degradation of these substrates. However in forages with low content of crude protein, e.g. corn silage and stover, the addition of slow-release urea alone or in combination with urea resulted in a significant increase in degradation and gas production.</p> urea, slow-release urea, degradation, gas production, forages Pakistan Agricultural Scientists Forum https://thejaps.org.pk/AbstractView.aspx?mid=2014-JAPS-262
