Prediction of silage intake by cattle
SUMMARYIn a series of feeding trials, measurements were made of silage drymatter (DM) content and pH, animal live weight and intake of DM other than silage. Silage intake has been related to these measurements by multiple regression. Subsequently, within

Processed manures sustain silage corn yield with amendment‐specific soil and forage response
Abstract In semiarid western US dairy systems, field evidence remains limited on whether processed manure products can sustain silage corn (Zea mays L.) productivity and improve soil health. A field experiment conducted in Logan, UT, during 2021–2022 compared compost, vermicompost, Sedron (a thermally and mechanically processed dairy manure), dissolved

Abstract Land application of dairy manure is a common practice on dairy farms. Long‐term application of phosphorus (P), in the forms of manure or fertilizers, to cropland can lead to a buildup of P in the soil and increased soil test P. Understanding how additional manure inputs can influence P nutrient balances throughout agroecosystems in Connecticut

Effect of molasses on nutritive value and in-vitro digestibility of elephant grass silage
Ensiling preserving a forage crop and its nutrients to feed later on as silage. In this study, elephant grass was ensiled with varying levels of molasses as an additive to evaluate its effect on the nutritive value and in-vitro digestibility of the ...

Abstract Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench is a globally significant cereal crop, increasingly favored over maize for forage due to its superior tolerance to abiotic stresses and cost‐effectiveness. However, high lignin content remains a primary constraint for livestock digestibility.

Cover cropping increased nitrogen use efficiency indices in silage cropping systems
Abstract Excessive and inefficient use of nitrogen (N) fertilizers in cropping systems can harm the environment, soil, and human health. Cover crops can improve soil health over time, but their impact on nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is not fully understood.

Abstract Common strategies to mitigate soil degradation of agricultural soils include cover crop application and soil amendment addition. Applying dredged sediments as a soil amendment is gaining popularity since they often provide benefits other amendments lack; however, their use with cover crops is largely unexplored.

Abstract Angular leaf spot (ALS; Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci) has become an increasingly important disease in dark tobacco [Nicotiana tabacum L.] production since 2015. Current recommendations for controlling ALS include selecting dark tobacco varieties with low ALS susceptibility and using agricultural streptomycin.
