Abstract
To increase the efficiency of utilizing protein in feed by ruminants, feed containing a protein and a reducing sugar are mixed. The mixture is heated at a temperature, pH and time sufficient to reduce degradability of the feed protein by rumen microorganisms and provide significant protein digestibility in the post rumen tract. Preferably, the sugar is xylose obtained by mixing sulfite liquor with the feed.
