The objective was to determine the effects of various mixtures of lucerne (Medicago sativa, L.) and tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) silages, fed to provide 1.1 percent of body weight as forage-neutral detergent fibre (NDF) in the diet, on milk production and composition, and associated digestion kinetic and ruminal parameters. NDF was provided from 1:0 lucerne: fescue, 0.67:0.33 lucerne:fesuce, 0.33:0.67 lucerne:fescue, or 0:1 lucerne:fescue. Diets were fed to five cows in an incomplete Latin square design (two periods)
