The utilization of feed urea in the rumen was tested in 2 experiments with a total of 4 newly lactating dairy cows with rumen and duodenal re-entrant cannulae. With the energy supply constant in each case, the rations in experiment A contained 8.7, 12.4 and 14.6 and those of experiment B 10.7, 13.7 and 17.1% crude plant protein in DM. After supplementation with 120 and 150 g urea daily there were 11.9, 15.7 and 17.8 (A) and 13.8, 16.7 and 20.2 (B) % crude protein in DM.
