TMR silages were prepared using commercial formula feed, hay and coffee grounds at 10%, 20% and 30% dry matter (DM) ratios, and their fermentation qualities were studied. Three Suffolk sheep were fed these TMR silages, and their nutritive values were estimated. TMR silages with varied concentrations of coffee grounds were well preserved with low PH and ammonia-nitrogen content, and high lactic acid content. Increasing concentrations of coffee grounds in the rations decreased the digestibility of DM, crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and energy, and increased that of ether extract (EE).
