Abstract
The feed value of the fine bran of durum wheat varieties cultivated in Algeria have as characteristics an average content of total nitrogen of 13.2% of dry matter (DM), a fat content of 2.4% of DM and minerals content of 2.8% of DM. These various chemical compounds values confer less fodder units and digestible proteins than those of durum wheat fine bran from Europeans varieties.
Keywords: Food of the ruminants, Fine bran of Algerian durum wheat, Feed value.
