Rumenology

The book combines information about the behaviour that allowed
ruminants to survive and to evolve on Earth: the rumen. Furthermore, the reader
will find aspects involving rumen anatomy, physiology, microbiology,
fermentation, metabolism, manipulation, kinetics and modeling. Thus, the book
was not only organized to help students involved in areas such as ruminant
nutrition and ruminant production but collegians gathering material for
teaching practices.
