Greetings my dear @ummar, thank you for leaving your concerns about the article, this will certainly strengthen the content.
Well, when I referred to cellulose, I meant that it is often more digestible than hemicellulose in ruminant animals. When handling cattle in the paddocks we must offer them pastures that are in a favorable phenological stage, before flowering would be ideal, this would be an indicator that the plant is not very mature, since, when very mature pastures begin to intertwine in the cell wall the lignin with the structural carbohydrates present as cellulose and hemicellulose, this causes the walls to thicken and it is difficult to find elements inside the cells such as proteins and soluble carbohydrates, therefore the digestibility is late.
It is there where the zootechnical management comes into play to give the grass the days of occupation and rest and in this way you have in the pastures a pasture that can provide adequate nutritional elements for the maintenance and production of the animals.
Thank you very much for your question my friend, have a great weekend.
