Control of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in contaminated alfalfa silage: Effects of silage additives [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2016 This study was conducted to examine if adding microbial inoculants or propionic acid to alfalfa silages contaminated with Escherichia coli O157:H7 would inhibit the growth of the pathogen during or after ensiling. Alfalfa forage was harvested at the early bloom stage, wilted to a dry matter concentration of 54%, chopped to 19-mm lengths, and ensiled ...

Alternatives to formic acid as a grass silage additive under two contrasting ensilability conditions [PDF]
, 2008 peer-reviewedThe effects of formic acid and four alternative additives on silage fermentation, in-silo DM losses and aerobic stability were compared in an experiment using both difficultto- ensile (DIFF) and easier-to-ensile (EASI) herbages.

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 ...

Effect of induction of subacute ruminal acidosis on milk fat profile and rumen parameters [PDF]
, 2010 High-concentrate diets can lead to subacute ruminal acidosis and are known to result in changes of the ruminal fermentation pattern and mammary secretion of fatty acids.

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 ...
