Effects of using Total Mixed Ration Silage based on Fodder Corn in Feeding Fattening Lambs

Characterization of culturable yeast species associating with whole crop corn and total mixed ration silage

OBJECTIVE This study investigated the association of yeast species with improved aerobic stability of total mixed ration (TMR) silages with prolonged ensiling, and clarified the characteristics of yeast species and their role during aerobic deterioration. METHODS Whole crop corn (WCC) silages and TMR silages formulated with WCC were ensiled for 7, 14, 28, and 56 d and used for an aerobic stab...

Effects of Feeding Methods of Total Mixed Ration on Behavior Patterns of Growing Hanwoo Steers

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of methods of feeding a total mixed ration (TMR) on behavior patterns of growing Hanwoo steers. A total of 15 growing steers (13 months old) were assigned to the control (fed roughage and concentrate mix separately), TMR1 (fed restricted TMR), and TMR2 (fed TMR ad libitum) groups. Individual behaviors of steers were observed for 48 hours. Compare...

Dynamics Associated with Prolonged Ensiling and Aerobic Deterioration of Total Mixed Ration Silage Containing Whole Crop Corn.

This study investigated the dynamics associated with prolonged ensiling and aerobic deterioration of whole crop corn (WCC) silages and total mixed ration (TMR) silages containing WCC (C-TMR silages) to clarify the differences that account for the enhanced aerobic stability of TMR silages. Laboratory-scale barrel silos were randomly opened after 7, 14, 28, and 56 d of ensiling and were subjected...

effect of replacing corn silage by amaranth silage on weight gain, rumen fermentation and blood parameters in fattening moghani lambs

fifty moghani male lambs with mean body weight of 28±1.9 kg were investigated in a completely randomized design for 98 days to assess the effect of replacing corn silage (cs) by amaranth silage (as) on weight gain, rumen fermentation and blood parameters. five iso-energetic and iso-nitrogenous diets, in which cs replaced by different levels of as (0, 75, 150, 225, or 300 g/kg of diet dm), were ...
