Composition of diets changed with seasons....  Perennial grasses represented dependable sources of forage, but never comprised more than 50\% of the steers{\textquoteright} diets in any season....  Shrub portions were highest in spring when soaptree yucca was grazed almost exclusively.  Forb fractions of diets varied little among seasons but were highest in winter.},

	abstract = {A study of chemical composition and organic matter digestibility of cattle diets was conducted on semidesert grassland in southern New Mexico during different seasons.  Forage quality was highest in the spring.  Fall diets were lower in digestibility energy.  Level of protein in fall diets was greater than requirements for dry cows but was less than recommended levels for lactating cows or growing calves.  A stepwise regression equation showed that protein accounted for more variation in in vitro digestibility than did other components.},

	abstract = {Botanical and nutritive composition of cattle diets on semidesert grassland was evaluated.  Four esophageal-fistulated steers were used to collect forage during five seasons.  The study was conducted on three seasonal suitability pastures and one year-long use pasture in southern New Mexico.     It was found that excessive numbers of steers would be needed to adequately sample for dietary lignin.  Sampling for other nutrient components and digestibility required six to eight steers.},
