Rumen - Wikipedia
网页The rumen, also known as a paunch, is the largest stomach compartment in ruminants and the larger part of the reticulorumen, which is the first chamber in the alimentary canal of ruminant animals. [1] The rumen's microbial favoring environment allows it to serve as the primary site for microbial fermentation of ingested feed. [1]
