ABSTRACT Herbivorous soil‐dwelling pests cause damage in agriculture through decreases in root and shoot biomass, which can affect both plant and economic yield. Having a greater understanding of the soil environment of these pests could identify potential avenues for mitigation/control strategies. Leatherjackets (Tipula larvae) are pests of grasslands

Biogas production from grasslands in Europe is important for sustainable energy, but predicting biogas yield from mixed, flower‐rich grasslands has been challenging due to variable biomass quality and limitations of existing models. This study analyzed flower‐rich fen grassland biomass, finding it to have high fiber and protein content, and ...

ABSTRACT This study determined the effects of a mixture of sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate (SBPS; 2 L/t fresh matter (FM)) and a formic acid‐based mixture (FASF; 3 L/t FM) on maize silage fermentation, aerobic stability, and short‐term feed intake by goats. Whole‐crop maize harvested at 280 g/kg dry matter (DM) was untreated (CON) or treated with

ABSTRACT Roughage constitutes a fundamental component of dairy cow diets; it promotes rumen health and supports optimal animal productivity. This study applied an ANKOM gas production system to assess the in vitro fermentation characteristics of seven widely used dairy roughages (barley hay, corn silage, lucerne hay, oaten hay, ryegrass hay, timothy ...
