Answer»

Correct CHOICE is (d) Nonforage Carbohydrates

Explanation: Some laboratories DISTINGUISH between NFC (non-fiber carbohydrate) and NSC (nonstructural carbohydrate). They define NFC by the above equation [100-(%NDF + %CP + %Fat + Ash)]. They define NSC as only the starches and sugars in the feed or forage. Starches and sugars can be DETERMINED DIRECTLY by enzymatic analysis.
