A rapid, near-infrared spectroscopic method to predict the crude protein contents of 72 field pea lines grown in Saskatchewan, both whole seeds and ground samples, was established. Correlation coefficients between the laboratory and predicted values were 0.938 and 0.952 for whole seed and ground seed, respectively. Both methods developed are adequate to support our field pea breeding programme. Key words: Field pea, near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy, crude protein

Filter Type

Separate calibrations for hay, haylage and corn silage were developed to predict chemical composition by near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIR). A scanning type of NIR instrument was used to select the best set of wavelengths (λ) while a filter type was used to evaluate the calibrations. Reflectance (R) was recorded as log (1/R). Bias (nonrandom error) was corrected for each set of samples before the NIR analysis. Percent crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) were studied in the hay samples. In addition, potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) were included for the haylage and corn silage samples. Six hundred samples, including calibration (C) and prediction sets (PRE1 and PRE2) were used. PRE1 samples came from the same population as the C samples, whereas PRE2 samples were obtained in a different year. Accuracy of the predictions was assessed by the coefficients of determination (r2), standard error of the estimate (SEE), and coefficients of variation (CV). Crude protein was the parameter best predicted by NIR with r2, SEE and CV ranging from 0.72 to 0.96, 0.43 to 1.17 and 5.6 to 10.4, respectively. The highest SEE for crude protein were associated with the PRE2 samples for haylage and hay samples (1.09 and 1.17), respectively. NIR predictions of ADF had r2, SEE and CV values ranging from 0.21 to 0.92, 1.44 to 2.53 and 5.3% to 7.9%, respectively. Corn silage had the lowest SEE for ADF in both C and PRE1 sets. Predicting mineral contents by NIR gave high CV (10.5%–34.5%) and low r2 values (0.02–0.75). Calcium predictions had the highest variability, and P and Mg predictions the lowest.These results indicate that CP was successfully predicted by NIR. The higher SEE values for ADF may have been due to variation in the wet chemistry values of some samples. Minerals were not adequately predicted by NIR as assessed by r2, SEE and CV values.

Abstract A Collaborative Study Was Conducted To Determine The Standard Error Of Difference Among Laboratories For Near-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopic (Nirs) Determination Of Acid-Detergent Fiber (Adf) And Crude Protein In Forages. The 6 Participating Laboratories Were Members Of The Usda/Ars National Near-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy Forage Research Project. The Nirs Calibration Equations Were Developed In The Associate Referee's Laboratory For Crude Protein And Adf And Were Transferred To The Instrument In Each Of The Other Collaborating Laboratories. The Calibration Set Included Over 650 Diverse Forage Samples With Crude Protein And Adf Calibration Data; The Validation Set Included 94 Samples Of Bermudagrass. Amonglaboratory Reproducibility For The Nirs Method, Calculated As The Relative Standard Deviation For Reproducibility (Rsdr), Was 1.14% For Adf And 0.42% For Crude Protein. The Variance Component For Among-Laboratory Variation (Coefficient Of Variation) Was 2.54% For Adf And 2.89% For Crude Protein. These Results Confirm That It Is Possible To Calibrate, Validate, And Transfer (Nirs) Equations And Data Among Laboratories For The Accurate Determination Of Adf And Crude Protein, And Thereby Demonstrate That Nirs Can Be Used As A Standard Method For The Analysis Of Forages. The Method Has Been Adopted Official First Action

Three drafts of Bos indicus cross steers (initially 178–216 kg) grazed Leucaena–grass pasture [Leucaena leucocephala subspecies glabrata cv. Cunningham with green panic (Panicum maximum cv. trichoglume)] from late winter through to autumn during three consecutive years in the Burnett region of south-east Queensland. Measured daily weight gain (DWGActual) of the steers was generally 0.7–1.1 kg/day during the summer months. Estimated intakes of metabolisable energy and dry matter (DM) were calculated from feeding standards as the intakes required by the steers to grow at the DWGActual. Diet attributes were predicted from near infrared reflectance spectroscopy spectra of faeces (F.NIRS) using established calibration equations appropriate for northern Australian forages. Inclusion of some additional reference samples from cattle consuming Leucaena diets into F.NIRS calibrations based on grass and herbaceous legume–grass pastures improved prediction of the proportion of Leucaena in the diet. Mahalanobis distance values supported the hypothesis that the F.NIRS predictions of diet crude protein concentration and DM digestibility (DMD) were acceptable. F.NIRS indicated that the percentage of Leucaena in the diet varied widely (10–99%). Diet crude protein concentration and DMD were usually high, averaging 12.4 and 62%, respectively, and were related asymptotically to the percentage of Leucaena in the diet (R2 = 0.48 and 0.33, respectively). F.NIRS calibrations for DWG were not satisfactory to predict this variable from an individual faecal sample since the s.e. of prediction were 0.33–0.40 kg/day. Cumulative steer liveweight (LW) predicted from F.NIRS DWG calibrations, which had been previously developed with tropical grass and grass–herbaceous legume pastures, greatly overestimated the measured steer LW; therefore, these calibrations were not useful. Cumulative steer LW predicted from a modified F.NIRS DWG calibration, which included data from the present study, was strongly correlated (R2 = 0.95) with steer LW but overestimated LW by 19–31 kg after 8 months. Additional reference data are needed to develop robust F.NIRS calibrations to encompass the diversity of Leucaena pastures of northern Australia. In conclusion, the experiment demonstrated that F.NIRS could improve understanding of diet quality and nutrient intake of cattle grazing Leucaena–grass pasture, and the relationships between nutrient supply and cattle growth.
