dc.descriptionThe nutritive value of the tree foliage varied according to the phenologic phase, being higher at the vegetative stage, when the forage production is also at its high. The total tanin content may not be an intake restrainer for caatinga forage trees, while high lignin percentage reduces digestibility. Caesalpinia, bracteosa and Bauhinia cheilantha are the best selections for hay production among the studied forage trees of Caatinga. Table 1.
