Nutrient Parameters of Grass Silages

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
The set of samples was classified by the phenophases: before the heading, the beginning of heading and full heading. Each group contained 12 samples. The parameters of nutritional value were evaluated. The chemical compositions (CP, PDIN and DOM) were highly significantly affected (P < 0.01) by the phenophases.

Effects of Replacing Grass Silage with Barley Silage in Dairy Cow Diets [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2006
This study examined the effects of gradually replacing grass silage with whole-crop barley silage on feed intake, ruminal and total tract digestibility, and milk yield in lactating dairy cows. Four dairy cows in early lactation, equipped with rumen cannulas, were fed 4 diets over four 21-d periods.

Seed viability of feathertop Rhodes grass (Chloris virgata Sw.) reduced by silage, digestion, and sheep rumen digestion

Frontiers in Agronomy, 2022
Weed seeds can be spread by different vectors, and seed dispersal is an important mechanism for the weed to persist. Weed seeds passaging through the digestive tract of a ruminant animal is expected to result in reduced viability.

Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived bacterial semiochemicals

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived airborne semiochemicals. Egg‐borne bacterial symbionts, and Serratia marcescens in particular, produce odorants which attract gravid female flies and elicit oviposition.

The use of bacterial inoculants for grass silage: their effects on nutrient composition and fermentation parameters in grass silages [PDF]

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2009
The effect of three microbial inoculants (Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 4000, L. fermentum LF2, and Enterococcus faecium CCM 4231) on the fermentation and nutritive value of orchard grass silage was studied under laboratory conditions. The first-cut orchard grass (280 g of dry matter/kg) was ensiled at 21°C for 105 days.

Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed affects coprophagous beetles' dung use

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed reduced the attractiveness of dung for a common dung beetle (Onthophagus nuchicornis). Dietary supplementation with brown seaweed appeared to reduce the proportion of major males in the F1 generation.

Prevalence of peripheral dental caries and diastemata in horses fed high‐carbohydrate diets

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Peripheral dental caries and diastemata impair equine oral health. Diets rich in soluble carbohydrates are suspected risk factors, but few studies have assessed their impact. In Brazil, sugarcane is widely used as a forage source due to its availability and low cost.
