Effects of Lentilactobacillus buchneri and chemical additives on fermentation profile, chemical composition, and nutrient digestibility of high-moisture corn silage [PDF]
High-moisture corn silage presents a novel approach to reduce forage feeding expenses and enhance animal performance. Nevertheless, given corn’s proclivity for starch, suboptimal fermentation quality in high-moisture corn silage can lead to spoilage ...

Investigating different seed moisture at harvesting time on germination indices of corn varieties based on the standard and aging acceleration test conditions [PDF]
The improper harvesting time can result in producing poor quality seed because leakage from the seed coat increases under these conditions. As such, it is critical to determine the proper seed moisture at the harvesting time.
