Technical note: effect of sample processing procedures on measurement of starch in corn silage and corn grain.
Methods for processing feedstuffs before analysis can affect analytical results. Effects of drying temperature (corn silage), preservation method (corn grain), and grinding method (corn silage and grain) on starch analysis values were evaluated. Corn silage samples dried at 55 or 105 degrees C and grain samples dried at 55 degrees C were ground to pass the 1-mm screen of an abrasion mill or cut...
متن کاملNutriDense corn grain and corn silage for dairy cows.
Twenty multiparous Holstein cows, 4 of them surgically fitted with ruminal cannulas, were used in a replicated 4 x 4 Latin square to compare the effects of whole-plant silage and grain produced from NutriDense (ND), leafy NutriDense (LND), or a conventional yellow dent (YD) hybrid on ruminal fermentation, total tract nutrient digestibility, and performance of lactating dairy cows. On a DM basis...
متن کاملThe Effect of Processing of Corn Silage with Schizophyllum Commune on Chemical Composition, Ruminal Degradability and in Vitro Gas Production
Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: To overcome the problems caused by animal feed shortages, efforts are made to increase the availability of nutrients and their digestibility, such as improving the nutritional value of forage plants through biological processing. Schizophyllum commune is an edible fungus of the basidiomycete’s family that has been used for biological processing of ...
متن کاملCorn Grain Processing and Digestion
Grains are fed to livestock primarily to supply energy, and the major energy source in cereal grains is starch. For maximum starch digestion, corn and sorghum grain must be processed. For non-ruminants, starch from finely ground grain is fully digested, but for ruminants fed concentrate diets, finely ground grain can cause metabolic diseases. Hence, steam rolling or flaking and fermentation (hi...
متن کاملFiber Digestibility and Starch Content of Corn Silage
Corn silage is a major forage crop in Idaho, supporting its dairy industry. Corn silage produces more digestible energy per acre than other forages. Nutritionally, corn silage is palatable when ensiled properly, and high in energy because it typically contains 50% corn grain. Digestibility of starch declines as the kernel matures. Effective roller processing of corn silage ensures that most of ...
