COMPOSITION
Oc c=cr~=
Tables 4 and 5 give the composition of feeds commonly
used in rabbit diets.* Two larger compilations are ava~l-
able.T
NOMENCLATURE
In previous NRC nutrient requirement reports, the names
of the feeds gave considerable detail as to the way the
feed was processed and the grade or quality designation.
In this publication short names are used. A complete
short feed name consists of as many as eight components.
However, only the components needed to identify the
feed are used. The components are as follows:
· Origin (or parent material)
· Species, variety, or kind
· Part eaten
· Processfes) and treatmentts) undergone before fed to
animal
· Stage of maturity
~ Cutting or crop
· Grade or quality designation
· Classification
Feeds of the same origin (and the same species, variety,
or kind, if one of these is stated) are grouped into eight
* These tables were prepared by the Subcommittee on Feed
Composition, Committee on Animal Nutrition, National Re-
search Council: Charles W. Deyoe, Chairman, J. R. Aitken, Joe
H. Conrad, Lonn E. Harris, Paul W. Moe, R. L. Preston, Peter J.
Van Soest, and the International Feedstuffs Institute, Logan,
Utah.
~ Publication 1684, United States-Canadian Tables of Feed
Composition, lists about 400 feeds. Publication 1919, Atlas of
Nutritional Data on United States and Canadian Feeds, lists
about 6,150 feeds. Both are published by the National Academy
of Sciences, Washington, D.C.
classes, each of which is designated by the "International
Feed Number." The numbers and classes they designate
are as follows:
1. Dry forages and roughages
2. Pasture, range plants, and forages fed green
3. Silages
4. Energy feeds
Protein supplements
Minerals
7. Vitamins
8. Additives
Feeds that in the dry state contain on the average more
than 18 percent of crude fiber are classified as forages or
roughages. Feeds that contain 20 percent or more of
protein are classified as protein supplements. Products
that contain less than 20 percent of protein and less Han
18 percent crude fiber are classified as energy feeds.
Abbreviations have been devised for some of He terms
in the short feed names (Tables 6 and 71.
A six-digit "International Feed Number" is listed in
Tables 4 and 5 for each feed. The first digit is the class of
the feed. This feed number may be used as the "numen-
cal name" of a feed when making up a diet with electronic
computers. This number is also listed after each "Legal
Feed Definition" in the Association of American Feed
Control Officials Handbook.*
A description of how He short names are made up is
given in Table 7. When written out in linear form, the
names in Table 7 would appear as follows, with a comma
between each component.
Feed No. 1: Clover, red, hay, s-c
Feed No. 2: Soybean., seeds, meal solv extd 44~o pros
tein
Feed No. 3: Wheat, grain, soft white winter

The names may vary slightly in each report because
changes are made as more is known about a given feed or
because the Association of American Feed Control Offi-
cials or the Canada Feeds Act may change the name or
definition of a feed. However, if the feed is the same, the
international feed number remains We same even though
the name changes.
LOCATING NAMES IN THE TABLES
To locate the name of a feed in the table of feed composi-
tion, one must know the name of the parent material (e.g.,
Me origin of We feed) and usually the variety or kind of
parent material. Parent materials are of four types: plant,
animal, poultry, and fish. For a feed derived from a plant,
He origin term is He name of the plant (e.g., Alfalfa,
Barley, Oats). For a feed derived from animals or poultry,
He origin term is He name of He animal or bird (e.g.,
Cattle, Chicken, Whale). For a feed of fish origin, the
original term is "Fish" followed by the species or variety
(e.g., Fish, cod; Fish, menhaden).
When the specific origin of a feed derived from poultry
or fish is not known, the origin term is "Poultry" or
"Fish." When a specific origin of a feed derived from
animals is not known, the origin term is the name of the
animal product (i.e., Blood, meal). Molasses is listed
under "Molasses."
DATA
Little data have been published on biological feed values
for rabbits. In view of this, digestible energy (DE), diges
tible protein, and total digestible nutrients (TDN) were
calculated from digestion coefficients of Voris et al.
(1940~.
Where digestion coefficients were not available, diges-
tible energy and digestible protein were calculated for
dry forages (class 1 feeds) and green forages (class 2 [Beds)
by formulas of Fonnesbeck and Harris.*
For legumes, DE (kcal/kg) = 4,340 - 68X and, for
grasses, DE (kcal/kg) = 4,340 - 79X, where X equals
crude fiber percentage on a dry basis.
Digestible protein (percent)=0.85X-2.5, where X
equals protein percentage on a dry basis.
The analytical data are expressed in He metric system
and are on an as-feed and dry basis. Analytical data may
diner in He various NRC reports because the data are
updated for each report. Individual feed samples may
vary widely from averages in the tables of feed composi-
tion. Vanations are influenced by factors such as crop,
variety, climate, soil, and length of storage. Therefore, He
values given should be used wig judgment and related, if
possible, to analyses about the feed on hand for critical
nutrients.
See Table 8 for stages of maturity, Table 9 for weight-
unit conversion factors, and Table 10 for weight equiva-
lents.

TABLE 8 International Stage of Maturity Terms (Revised 1973)
Preferred term Definition Comparable Terms
.
For Plants that Bloom
Germinated Stage in which the embryo in a seed resumes
growth after a dormant period
Early vegetative Stage at which the plant is vegetative and
before the stems elongate
Late vegetative Stage at which stems are beginning to elongate
to just before blooming; first bud to first
flowers
Early bloom
Mid-bloom
Full bloom
Late bloom
Milk stage
Dough stage
Mature
Post ripe
Stem cured
Stage between initiation of bloom and stage
in which 1110 of the plants are in bloom; some
grass heads are in anthesis
Stage in which 1110 to 213 of the plants are in
bloom; most grass heads are in anthesis
Stage in which 213 or more of the plants are
in bloom
Stage in which blossoms begin to dry and fall
and seeds begin to form
Stage in which seeds are well formed but soft
and immature
Stage in which the seeds are of dough-like
consistency
Stage in which plants are normally harvested
for seed
Stage that follows maturity; some seeds cast
and plants have begun to weather (applies
mostly to range plants)
Stage in which plants are cured on the stem;
seeds have been cast and weathering has
taken place (applies mostly to range plants)
Sprouted
Fresh new growth, before heading out, before
inflorescence emergence, immature prebud
stage, very immature, young
Before bloom, bud stage, budding plants,
heading to in bloom, heads just showing,
jointing and boot (grasses), prebloom, pre-
flowering, stems elongated
Early anthesis, first flower, headed out in head,
up to 1/10 bloom
Bloom, flowering, flowering plants, had bloom,
in bloom, mid-anthesis
314 to full bloom, late anthesis
15 days after Bilking, before milk, in bloom to
early pod, late to post anthesis
After anthesis, early seed, fruiting, in tassel, late
bloom to early seed, past bloom, pod stage,
post anthesis, post bloom, seed developing,
seed forming, soft, soft immature
Dough stage, nearly mature, seeds dough,
seeds well developed, soft dent
Dent, dough to glazing, fruiting, fruiting plants,
in seed, kernels ripe, ripe seed
Late seed, over ripe, very mature
Dormant, mature and weathered, seeds cast
Regrowth early vegetative Stage in which regrowth occurs without flower- Vegetative recovery growth
ing activity; vegetative crop aftermath; re
growth in stubble (applies primarily to faJI
regrowth in temperate climates); early dry
season regrowth
Regrowth late vegetative
Stage in which stems begin to elongate to just
before blooming; first bud to first flowers;
regrowth in stubble with stem elongation (ap-
plies primarily to fall regrowth in temperate
climates)
Recovery growth, stems elongating, jointing
and boot {grasses)
