Predictions of the post-ruminal crude protein (PRCP) supply as estimated with the reference and in vitro methods at rumen passage rates of 2, 5, and 8%/h and as calculated with the chemical method using the equation of Zhao and Cao [5] at rumen passage rate of 5%/h of fresh tropical forage grasses and legumes.

^a Passage rates through the rumen. ^b PRCP methods: reference PRCP, PRCP supply determined at rumen passage rates of 2, 5, and 8%/h with the equation N°11 of Lebzien et al. [15] using information on in situ rumen-undegraded crude protein at rumen passage rates of 2, 5 and 8%/h, crude protein, and digested organic matter concentration determined from in vitro gas production; in vitro PRCP, PRCP supply estimated with the in vitro method [4]; chemical PRCP, PRCP supply calculated from concentrations of crude protein fractions using the equation of Zhao and Cao [5] for dried forage grasses, a grass silage, a fresh forage legume, and corn and soybean by-products. Results from the chemical method were only compared at a rumen passage rate of 5%/h, because the method was validated against a PRCP measurement after 24 h in vitro incubation, which resembles a PRCP supply at a rumen passage rate of 5%/h. ^c Error-index measurements include measures on mean bias, root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). ^d Dimensionless; includes measures such as the ratio between root mean square error and standard deviation (RSR), the concordance correlation coefficient (CCC), and its partitioning into correlation coefficient (ρ, i.e., precision) and bias correction factor (Cb; i.e., accuracy).
