Abstract
The concentrations and molar proportions of volatile fatty acids (VFA) in the rumens of three grazing sheep were measured over a 24-hour period in the autumn. A large change in VFA concentration with time was observed. Smaller but consistent changes in VFA proportions were noted.
The changes were probably related to the grazing pattern of the sheep.
