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...
متن کاملAdvantages of Forage Sorghum for Silage in Limited Input Systems
Water shortages are threatening the sustainability of irrigated agriculture in dry environments such as the Southern High Plains (SHP) of the U.S. Corn has been a staple silage crop grown to supply the enormous forage demand associated with dairy and beef feeding industries. The relatively high water use of corn, however, is limiting the extent to which corn can be grown. Although irrigated, co...
متن کاملInoculants 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...
متن کاملEffects of salt stress on some growth parameters and chemical contents of two forage sorghum lines
Abstract Soil salinity has been recognized as the most serious problems for agriculture in arid and semi-arid areas of the world. To evaluate the changes in some growth parameters and chemical composition of two forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor var. sudanense lines (KFS1, KFS2) under salinity stress [0 (control), 3, 6, 9, 12 dS/m of sodium chloride], a pot experiment was carried out at Colleg...
متن کاملEffects of homo-fermentative bacterial inoculants on fermentation characteristics and nutritive value of low dry matter corn silage
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 u...
