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 کاملCorn Coproducts for Cattle
Corn distillers grains (CDG) and corn gluten feed (CGF) are the major corn coproducts fed to cattle. Both CDG and CGF can be fed wet or dried with animal performance usually similar when fed wet or dried products; however, some research results favored the wet products. Cattle diets can contain CDG or CGF as replacements for portions of both concentrates and forages. Distillers grains is a very...
متن کاملUtilization of Urea and Urease Treated Rice Straw by Indigenous Growing Cattle
The experiment was conducted to study the effect of treatment of rice straw with urea and a urease containing midden soil on the chemical composition of treated rice straw, feed intake of the animals, nutrients digestibility, body weight gain, feed conversion efficiency and overall economy of feeding for a period of 105 days. Twelve indigenous growing cattle (live weight 130.00±1.67 kg) were se...
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 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...
