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 ...

Chemical composition and quality of sweet sorghum and maize silages [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2011 Sweet sorghum (Sorghum saccharatum) silage, maize (Zea mays) silage, and sorghum and maize (1:1) silage were investigated. The silages were analysed for chemical composition, quality and aerobic stability.

Digestion, rumen fermentation and circulating concentrations of insulin, growth hormone and IGF-1 in steers fed diets based on different proportions of maize silage and grass silage [PDF]
, 2008 Replacing grass silage with maize silage results in a fundamental change in the ratio of structural to non-structural carbohydrates with commensurate changes in rumen fermentation patterns and nutrient utilisation.

Silage review: Factors affecting dry matter and quality losses in silages.
Journal of Dairy Science, 2018 An overview was made of dry matter (DM) and quality losses that occur during the ensiling process from the field through the feeding phase. The aim was to review the relevant published literature of the last 15 yr focusing on developments achieved after ...

Silage sorghum, an alternative to silage maize
, 2020 Problem Forage production of silage maize becomes increasingly challenging due to soil quality degradation, increasing pressure of diseases and pests, legal limitations in N and P-fertilization rate, higher chances of drought and excessive water due to climate change.

Antimicrobial resistance determinants in silage [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractAnimal products may play a role in developing and spreading antimicrobial resistance in several ways. On the one hand, residues of antibiotics not adequately used in animal farming can enter the human body via food. However, resistant bacteria may also be present in animal products, which can transfer the antimicrobial resistance genes (ARG) to

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 ...
