Present study was conducted to see the effect of different levels (0, 50, 75 and 100 ppm of concentrate) of choline chloride on in vitro fermentation process with rations of different energy content. Two rations were prepared having different energy levels (1.26 Mcal/kg NEL and 1.50 Mcal/kg NEL) and both these rations were supplemented with different levels (0, 50, 75 and 100 ppm of concentrate) of choline chloride to see the effect of choline No significant effect of either choline supplementation at different levels was found on any in vitro parameter as compared to control diets with either low or high energy content of ration. On comparison of in vitro results obtained by supplementation of choline chloride irrespective of the level of supplemented choline chloride with low and high energy diets, significant differences in various parameters were obtained at 5% level of significance. NGP, ME, OMD, %OMD, TD and short chain fatty acids were significantly higher for high energy diet (P<0.05) whereas MMP and EMMP were found significantly higher for low energy diet. These results lead to the conclusions that choline does not have any significant role on rumen fermentation process.
