The present study was carried out in order to ascertain the effects coming from the continuous ingestion of cycad leaves (Cycad revoluta Thunb.) or cycasin as an alkylating agent, on the the rumen-digestion-process of ruminant, especially on to the rumen-digestion mechanism of it. Three adult goats were installed with the rumen-fistula, and were administered the cycad leaves or cycasin, and the rumen-juice was gathered through the rumen fistula. The fluctuation of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) in the rumen-contents was analyzed by gas chromatography; while a clinical observation, clinical and biochemical examinations were performed on the blood, pathological references being carried out, simultaneously
