Non-protein nitrogen has been used in ruminant feeding as a cheaper source of nitrogen than from a true protein source, with urea being the main product with this meaning. Fibrolytic organisms are the most efficient at utilizing ammonia as a source of nitrogen, hence urea in high fiber diets increases fiber degradation and digestion. The problem is that this diet has a rapid release of nitrogen, therefore, much ammonia can be lost by absorption from the rumen epithelium and by eructation.A slow-release nitrogen source would provide better utilization of nitrogen and other nutrients in the rume...
