Abstract	:	Browse condensed tannin plays a role in ruminant protein by-pass. Herbaceous, native legumes as a supplement to grass pastures may improve goats' nutrition. Three legume species native to north central Texas, Acacia angustissima var. hirta, Desmodium paniculatum, and Lespedeza procumbens were studied to determine the effect of tannin concentration on nutritive properties and compared to that of Medicago sativa. Herbage was incubated in ruminally-fistulated goats fed a basal diet of sorghum-Sudan hay, with degradation parameters observed at 0, 4, 8, 16, 28, 48, and 96 hours. Acacia angustissima var. hirta matched the nutritive value of alfalfa, had among the highest concentrations of condensed tannins, and the most desirable nutritive properties for digestion.
