Information on nutritive value of locally available feed ingredients is scarce, therefore the studyconducted in the laboratory of the Department “General Animal Husbandry” of the State Agrarian University ofMoldova, was aimed at determining the chemical composition and nutrient content of various feeds and fodderspecies commonly used in the diets of dairy cows raised in the University farm. Fodder samples, proceeding fromdifferent agricultural and ecological zones of the Republic of Moldova, were analyzed for their content of totalmoisture, dry matter, crude protein, fat, fiber, ash and NFE quantity and the data were compared with thoseavailable in the specialized literature. The comparative analysis showed differences in the content of a number ofnutrients and large fluctuations were observed in terms of the level of oat nutrition units, energetic nutrition unitsand metabolizable energy content in comparison with the data contained in normative references and used in thecalculation of the nutritional value of feed and diets.
