Abstract
Water consumption has been considered to be a function of dry-matter (DM) intake (Leitch and Thomson, 1944; Winchester and Morris, 1956). Thus, water requirement for ruminants has been presented as kg per unit of DM intake (Agricultural Research Council (ARC), 1965; Japanese Agricultural and Fishery Technology Council, 1974). Little work, however, has been done on the effect of the DM concentration of a diet on water consumption in cattle.
