The effects of rhizobial herbs on in vitro rumen fermentation profiles in cattle
Rhizobial herb such as turmeric (Curcuma longa), ginger (Zingiber officinale), galangal (Alpinia galangal ) and Javanese ginger (Curcuma zanthorrhiza) have a lot of health beneficial used not only for human, but also for animal, and those rhizobial herbs were selected in this research.
