Abstract
The chemical and amino acid composition and energy value of grain of the na ked oat cultivars Akr and STH 296 were determined. Lysine was the amino aci d limiting the nutritional value of protein (CS) in both cultivars. EAAl an d the total amino acid content in protein were higher in cv. Akt than in ST H 296. The concentration of metabolizable energy (for pigs) was high and eq ualed 17.4 and 17.8 MJ/kg DM in STH 296 and Akt, respectively,
