ABSTRACT - It was evaluated the effects of the chemical characteristics and in vivo NDF digestibility (IVNDFD) onintake, digestibility and performance of dairy cows in fedlot by using a meta-analysis procedure from 285 observations of sixexperiments. It was used data of animals fed diets based on corn silage (n = 213) or sugarcane (n = 72). Despite the lower NDFcontent of sugarcane (45.27% of DM) compared to corn silage (54.48%), it was noted lower intakes of dry matter (DMI) andNDF, which responded with a lower milk yield. It was observed a greater reduction in DMI (kg/day) with the increase of NDFf(NDF forage, % DM) in sugarcane diets (332.4 g of DM for each 1% of NDFf) in relation to corn silage (96 g of DM for each1% of NDFf). The greatest effect of ruminal repletion of sugar cane NDF is caused by the indigestible fraction, majoritary,despite the highest degradation rate of NDF potentially degradable fraction in relation to corn silage. Milk production notcorrected (MP) and MP corrected to 4% fat (MPC) and the content of milk protein decreased linearly with the increase ofNDFf content, regardless of the forage source. However, MP and MPC were not affected by NDFnf (non-forage NDF) level.Intakes of DM, NDF, TDN and milk fat content decreased linearly with increase in the lignin:NDF ratio, with greater amplitudein sugarcane based diets in relation to silage corn. Dry matter intake, MP and MPC reduced linearly and at the same magnitudeamong forage sources, with the increase in NDFD of the diet. The effect of NDF and lignin on intake, digestibility and animalperformance depend upon the source used.Key Words: corn silage, ruminal retention, sugarcane
