چکیده

this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of inoculation of homo-fermentative lactic acid bacteria(lab) on ensiling characteristics and nutritive value of low dry matter corn silage (ldmcs). corn foragewas harvested at milk stage (22.8 ± 0.9% dm), chopped at theoretical length of cut (tlc) 2.5 cm, and stored in eighteen 3.8 l mini silos for each treatment. the following treatments were used, 1) control(uninoculated), 2) ecosyl (treated with ecosyltm corn silage inoculants containing lactobacillus plantarum),and 3) biotal (treated with biotaltm corn silage inoculants containing lactobacillus plantarum, pediococcuspentosaceus and propionibacter freudenreichii). triplicate silos for each treatment were opened and sampledfor chemical analyses after 3, 6, 12, 16, 21 and 90 days of ensiling. neither ecosyl nor biotal improvedfermentation characteristics of ldmcs compared to the control silage. neutral detergent fiber (ndf), aciddetergent fiber (adf), crude protein (cp), water soluble carbohydrate (wsc) contents and lactic acid (la)concentration were not affected significantly by inoculants (p>0.05). acetic acid concentration of controlsilages was higher; however, ethanol concentration was lower than the other silages. biotal treated silageshad the highest ammonia-n (nh3-n) concentrations compared to the control (p

Nutritive value, fermentation characteristics, and in situ disappearance kinetics of sorghum silage treated with inoculants.

Fibrolytic enzymes and microbial inoculants have the potential to improve the value of sorghum feedstuff and feedstock. An experiment was conducted to determine nutritive value, ensiling characteristics, and in situ disappearance kinetics of 4 sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) silage varieties: Dairy Master BMR (DBMR; brown midrib; Richardson Seed, Vega, TX), PS 747 (PS; photoperiod sensitive; Pogue...

Inoculant effects on alfalfa silage: fermentation products and nutritive value.

The effect of 14 microbial inoculants on the fermentation and nutritive value of alfalfa silages was studied under laboratory conditions. The first cut (477 g of dry matter/kg) and second cut (393 g of dry matter/kg) of a second-year alfalfa stand were ensiled in 2 trials. In both trials alfalfa was harvested with standard field equipment. All inoculants were applied at 1.0 x 10(6) cfu/g of cro...

Bacterial Inoculant Effects on Corn Silage Fermentation and Nutrient Composition

The survival and effect of three new probiotic inoculants (Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 4000, L. fermentum LF2, and Enterococcus faecium CCM 4231) on the nutritive value and fermentation parameters of corn silage was studied under laboratory conditions. Whole corn plants (288.3 g/kg DM) were cut and ensiled at 21°C for 105 days. The inoculants were applied at a concentration of 1.0×10 cfu/ml. Un...

Inoculants for Corn Silage

Various spoilage microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts and molds) readily grow on crops going into a silo, causing losses in dry matter and quality. To prevent these various microorganisms from growing, two conditions are needed in the silo: an oxygen-free (or anaerobic) environment and a low pH. Many of the oxygen-requiring (aerobic) microorganisms that heat the silage as well as causing losses can...

Current strategies to increase nutritive value of corn silage

Introduction High quality whole-plant corn silage (WPCS) contributes greatly to supplying the energy, starch and forage NDF needs of high-producing dairy cows, reducing purchased feed costs from expensive grain and byproduct supplements, and generating milk revenues for dairy producers throughout the world. The purpose of this paper is to review selected recent developments and strategies that ...
