In a feeding-balance trial the intake, nutritive value and digestibility were determined of the barley grain of Dura varieties, of the moisture content of 35.50%. The grain was treated with: propionic acid (combination 1), actic acid (2), formic acid (3), Acidol solution (4) or dried with hot air (5). The preserved grain was stored for 9 weeks and then fed to 15 wethers. There were no differences in the nutrient content in the grain preserved with acids or dried. The intakes of dry matter, digestible crude protein and oat feed units of the treated grain were on average higher by 24% than that of the dried grain. (authors)
