Roughage supplies the cellulose needed for a healthy rumen microbial population, for the cellulose-digesting bacteria. However, dairy cattle, though supplied 70% roughage and 30% grain in their total mixed rations (TMRs), will commonly nose through such rations to reach the "good stuff" (being grain, mostly) and get themselves in a health situation where they are at high risk for acidosis. One reason for this is they eat a lot, and the second is that they are individually fed specific rations for their individual needs, which means they don't recieve competition from other cows to eat what they want to eat: instead they have time to pick through their rations, leaving out the less palatable stuff and eating the better-tasting, more palatable (and not necessarily more healthy) parts of their rations.
