Inseparable from the concept of the usefulness or availability of a feed to an animal, is the estimate of the apparent digestibility of its nutrient components. The problem of arriving at valid apparent digestion coefficients is beset with difficulties of varying magnitude, which affect the accuracy of the resulting values. It is, therefore, of primary importance that the influence of the factors responsible for the existing variation in apparent digestion coefficients be reduced to a minimum.
