Alfalfa-Based Dehydrated Silage Pellet as a Source of Nutrients in Laying Hens: I. Effects on Animal Performance and Egg Quality. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Alfalfa‐based silage pellets (ABSP) showed significant results regarding production performance, yolk colour and ω‐3 (PUFAs), as well as the ratio ω‐6/ω‐3 (p < 0.05). The ABSP group also exhibited a higher abundance of beneficial bacteria and a lower abundance of pathogenic bacteria compared to the control group (p < 0.05).

Review of recent advances in the design, synthesis, and modification of biochar for remediation of heavy metal pollution in water

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1769-1795, April 2026.
Research frontiers in using biochar for heavy metal remediation. Abstract Heavy metal contamination of water has long been a serious environmental issue. Biochar and biochar‐based composites are emerging as effective and sustainable solutions for heavy metal removal due to their strong adsorption abilities and environmentally friendly nature.

SILAGE QUALITY OF CORN AND SORGHUM ADDED WITH FORAGE PEANUTS

Revista Caatinga, 2016
Corn and sorghum are standard silage crops because of their fermentative characteristics. While corn and sorghum silages have lower crude protein (CP) contents than other crops, intercropping with legumes can increase CP content.

Forage Biomass and Chemical Composition of Buffelgrass Genotypes in the Semi‐Arid Region of Brazil

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Forage improvement in semi‐arid regions requires the identification of genotypes capable of maintaining productivity under climatic variability and chronic water scarcity. This study evaluated six buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) genotypes over two production years in northern Minas Gerais, Brazil, to characterize their agronomic, morphological, and ...

Silage Inoculants

, 2011
Inoculants are silage additives containing lactic acid bacteria (e.g. Lactobacillus plantarum, other lactobacilli, pediococci or Enterococcus faecium) that help to improve fermentation (production of lactic acid) in the silo. Inoculants bacteria are usually selected from epiphytic microflora or other environments.

Incorporating Plantain Into a Perennial Ryegrass–White Clover Mixed Sward for an Environmentally Sustainable Dairy System: A Three‐Year Farm System Study

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Over three production years (2021–2024), this study investigated the effects of incorporating plantain into a perennial ryegrass–white clover (RGWC) mixed sward on dairy farm productivity and environmental footprint. Seventy‐two Friesian × Jersey cows were allocated to six farmlets across two replicated herbage treatments (n = 3): RGWC with no plantain

Balancing Production and Environmental Goals in Pasture‐Based Dairy Systems: A Longitudinal Case Study of Transition in a High Performing New Zealand Farm

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Production and environmental outputs of intensive pasture‐based dairy systems must be rebalanced to reduce overall environmental footprint. This analysis documents the tactical management changes that enabled Lincoln University Dairy Farm (LUDF) to transition from high nitrogen (N) inputs (345 kg N fertiliser/ha/year) to a lower N input strategy (167 ...
