Intake and Digestibility of Corn Silages
T HE feeding of corn silage has long been a common practice in corn producing areas; however, the effect of cultural practices on nutritive value has received only minor attention. Some important factors are: stage of maturity (Huber, Groff and Engel, 1965), varieties (White et al., 1924), plant population (Nevens, 1951; Alexander et al., 1963) and soil fertility (Alexander et al., 1963). Since...
متن کاملComparison of feeding corn silages from leafy or conventional corn hybrids to lactating dairy cows.
Three corn hybrids (Pioneer 36F30, Mycogen TMF2450, and Mycogen TMF2404) were compared for yield and quality traits, and lactation performance and apparent digestibility by Holstein cows. The three corn silages were harvested at a target of 33 to 35% dry matter. Before harvest, six corn plants were randomly selected for plant fractionation. Grain-to-stover ratios were 0.92, 0.70, and 0.95 for t...
متن کاملBacterial 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...
متن کاملEffect of ensiling and silage additives on fatty acid composition of ryegrass and corn experimental silages.
Two experiments were conducted using laboratory mini-silos to study the effect of ensiling and silage additives on fatty acid (FA) composition, including minor or unusual FA, of ryegrass and corn silages. Ryegrass was ensiled for 12 wk with no additives, with the addition of a bacterial inoculant or formic acid. Corn was ensiled for 9 wk without additives, with the addition of a bacterial inocu...
متن کاملEffect of a bacterial inoculant on rate of fermentation and chemical composition of high dry matter grass silages
Four experiments were carried out in Lelystad, The Netherlands in 1994, in which perennial ryegrass wilted to 421–568 g dry matter (DM) kg−" was ensiled with and without an inoculant containing Lactobacillus plantarum and Enterococcus faecium strains in 1-litre capacity laboratory silos. Treated silages showed a markedly increased rate of pH decline. The final pH of treated silages was reached ...
