The effects of feeding maize silage at different times prior to an herbage meal on dry matter intake, milksolids production and nitrogen excretion in late-lactation dairy cows [PDF]

, 2015
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of feeding maize silage at different times before the herbage meal on dry matter (DM) intake, milksolids (MS) production and nitrogen (N) excretion of late lactation dairy cows.

Ex‐Ante Assessment of Farm Resilience to Institutional Shocks: A Modeling Approach

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 5, Page 1681-1708, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Using the agent‐based model SWISSland, we simulate farm‐level responses and interactions under two institutional shocks: tariff reductions and direct payment reductions. Using a framework we developed, we assess resilience capacities, resilience attributes, and the provision of private and public goods, following the shock.

Maize silage genotype and ruminant digestion

Acta agriculturae Slovenica, 1999
Maize breeding objectives have for a long time been limited to agronomic criteria, but a high variability in nutritive value for ruminants is also observed among hybrids. Nowadays breeding takes into account the effect of chemical composition in the modification of maize nutritional value.

The Cow or the Credit: Causal Relationship Between California Dairy Herd Consolidation and Anaerobic Digesters

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 5, Page 1709-1716, December 2026.
ABSTRACT The California dairy industry has experienced considerable consolidation over the past 30 years. During this period, there has also been substantial technological innovation, implementation of the state's Low Carbon Fuel Standard program, and rapid adoption of anaerobic digesters.

Processed manures sustain silage corn yield with amendment‐specific soil and forage response

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
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

Effect of Maize and Soybean Mixtures on Microorganism Dynamic, Fermentation Profile and Quality of Silage Feed

This study investigates the effects of different mixture ratios of maize and soybean on the fermentation profile and nutritional quality of silage under Eastern Mediterranean conditions, as well as the relationship between silage parameters.

Effect of fertilizer source and rate on phosphorus leaching and extractable phosphorus in soils with long‐term dairy manure history

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
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

Integrating biomass productivity and forage quality to identify superior inbred sorghum lines grown in Egyptian sandy soils

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
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

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
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.
