The legume species sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) has been shown to contain tannins of particularly beneficial composition for ruminant nutrition. This thesis describes effects of condensed tannins on protein degradation in general and in sainfoin specifically. Five studies are presented that investigate 1) effects of different ensiling treatments on sainfoin, 2) in vitro rumen protein degradation of sainfoin related to tannin content, 3) effects of molecular tannin structure on binding of tannins to proteins 4) modifications of the inoculum in an in vitro protein degradation assay. Results showed that sainfoin had promising ensiling characteristics using different levels of commercial silage acidifiers at dry matter levels ranging from 2...
