Conteúdo: 	The effect of dehydrated citrus pulp with or without fresh forage on animal perimanence, rumen fermentation and incidence of parakeratosis was studied in 15 dairy calves from 5 to 120 days of age. Weaning was at 35 days after the calves had consumed 90 litres of wholc milk. The treatments were: A) integral diet (68% citrus pulp); B) integral diet plus 2.5 kg of fresh forage/100 kg LW; and C) integral diet plus fresh forage ad libitum. There was a greater consumpition of DM (P <.01) and ME (P<.05) in the calves that had access to forage, but, efficiency of ME utilization for live weifht gain was better (P<.01) in those without forage. The integral diet alone was characterized by a lower rumen ph (P<.05). There were no diferences in total VFA concentration but individual molar proporitions were greater (P<.001) for acid and lower for propionic, butyric and valeric acid with forage. The calves given the integral diet alone showed severe rumen parakerotosis. Tissue weight (P<.001) of the reticulo-rumen was greater and abomasum (P<.05) and small intesitine (P<.001) was lower in those fed an integral diet only. The addition of fresh forage produced a beneficial effect by reducing the lesionsof the rumen wall.
