Ferulic Acid Esterase-Producing Inoculant Improves Fiber Degradation and Modulates Microbial Diversity in Corn Bran Silage and Whole-Plant Corn Silage [PDF]
MicroorganismsFerulic acid esterase (FAE) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the feruloyl ester bond in lignocellulose, exposing cellulose. The objective of this research was to examine the impacts of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens A30 producing FAE on the fermentation quality ...

Altering undigested neutral detergent fiber through additives applied in corn, whole barley crop, and alfalfa silages, and its effect on performance of lactating Holstein dairy cows [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2019 Objective We hypothesized that silage additives may alter the undigested neutral detergent fiber (uNDF) content through ensiling. Therefore, urea and formic acid were applied to corn, whole barley crop (WBC) and alfalfa to change uNDF content of the ...

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023 Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...
