An Enzyme Additive for Corn Silage: Effects on Silage Composition and Animal Performance
Journal of Dairy Science, 1996 Whole-plant corn was harvested at the soft dough stage of maturity, was left untreated or was treated with an enzyme additive containing cellulase and hemicellulase, and was ensiled in bag or mini silos. Silage fermentation was not markedly altered by treatment, regardless of silo type; however, enzyme treatment reduced NDF and ADF contents of silage ...

JSFA reports, EarlyView.Abstract Background Livestock, especially ruminants, are a major source of global methane emissions, primarily produced by methanogenic archaea during enteric fermentation. We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to account for factors that could influence the relationship between ruminal methanogenic populations and methane emissions, such ...

Effects of Different Silage Additives on Silage Quality of Gramineae Forage Mixtures
, 2022 There should be no tables, figures or bibliography. In this study, silage quality properties, in vitro organic matter digestion (IVOMS), metabolic energy (ME) and in vitro methane gas values were investigated when different silage additives were added to barley, triticale and ryegrass forage crop mixtures at different mixing ratios grown as winter ...

Estimating Soil Compaction Risk at Regional Scales Using Meteorological Data and Soil Spectroscopy
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Soil compaction is a significant form of soil degradation in Europe, reducing agricultural productivity, limiting carbon sequestration and increasing greenhouse gases emissions. In response, the forthcoming European Union Soil Monitoring and Resilience Law requires spatial assessment of topsoil and subsoil compaction risk at district, that is,

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Farming systems of high natural and cultural value represent approximately 30% of farmlands in the European Union and are associated with a high species and habitat diversity and/or the presence of species of European conservation concern. This study aims to synthesize the existing knowledge on the assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem ...

Some love them, others hate them: Understanding farmers' tree planting decisions in Scotland
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Agroforestry is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural land use system with potential to sequester carbon, create and repair habitats, enhance biodiversity and offer environmental and socio‐economic benefits, including improved agricultural productivity.

Additives Containing Bacteria and Enzymes for Alfalfa Silage
Journal of Dairy Science, 1995 First-cutting alfalfa was wilted, harvested from alternate rows, left untreated or treated with additives containing lactic acid bacteria and enzymes (cellulase, amylase, and pectinase), and ensiled in bag silos. Inoculation increased lactic acid bacteria from 5 x 10(4) to 1 x 10(6) cfu/g of forage.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Climate change and the growing demand for renewable energy are putting increasing pressure on land, as food production and solar power generation often compete for the same areas. In this study, we assessed which temperate‐region crops are best suited for agrivoltaics, a technology combining farming and solar electricity production on the same land. We

Dynamics of fungal community during silage fermentation of elephant grass () produced in northern Vietnam [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2019 Objective This study aimed to gain deeper insights into the dynamic changes in spoilage fungi populations during fermentation and the influence of traditional additives on silage quality. Methods Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) was prepared without
