Maize for silage in Sweden [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Maize for silage has been used as fodder in different parts of the world for a long time and has recently become more common also in Sweden. Our cold climate has been a problem as maize is very sensitive to low temperatures and frost.

Implementation of Targeted Selective Treatment (TST) in a Commercial Smallholder Sheep Flock: Reduction in Anthelmintic Expenditure

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The adoption of targeted selective treatment (TST) is an alternative for the sustainable management of gastrointestinal nematodes in sheep. TST mitigates the development of anthelmintic resistance by reducing the number of animals drenched while preserving the parasite refugia population.

Biochar Mitigates N2O and NH3 Emissions for Organic and Inorganic Fertilizers in an Austrian Field Experiment

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 6, November–December 2026.
ABSTRACT Biochar is a promising soil management strategy to reduce reactive nitrogen (Nr) losses from agricultural soils, and replacing mineral fertilizers with organic amendments (OAs) can improve soil health and enhance nutrient recycling. We conducted a three‐year field experiment with maize (Zea mays) in Lower Austria to compare organic waste ...

Recent Advances in Biogas Production and Upgrading Technologies for Sustainable Energy Systems

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2026.
Biogas technology is evolving from waste treatment into an intelligent renewable energy platform. Recent advances in anaerobic digestion, pretreatment, reactor design, biomethane upgrading, and AI‐driven process control improve methane recovery, stability, and gas purity.

Biochar‐Driven Microbial Shifts Enhance Feed Digestibility and Mitigate Methane Emissions in Hybrid Pennisetum Silage

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2026.
This study investigated the effects of cellulase, propionate, and cow dung biochar as additives on the silage quality of hybrid Pennisetum. The results indicated that the incorporation of biochar not only improved fermentation quality but also reduced methane production and enhanced in vitro dry matter digestibility.

The effect of Lactobacillus buchneri inoculation on the aerobic stability and fermentation characteristics of alfalfa-ryegrass, red clover and maize silage

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 2013
Aerobic spoilage of silages occurs frequently and is undesirable because it reduces both its nutritive and hygienic quality. Silage inoculants containing heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria, like Lactobacillus buchneri, have already been proven to ...

Local habitat, not landscape diversity, drives richness and reproduction of cavity‐nesting bees and wasps in agricultural landscapes

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 1587-1602, November 2026.
Local habitat type and hedgerow cover strongly shape bee and wasp richness, but only weakly their reproductive output, outweighing the landscape diversity effects at the 1‐km2 scale. Forests host more wasp but fewer bee species, whereas orchards support high richness of both; bee reproduction patterns are driven by one dominant species, while wasp ...

Deciphering the contributions of hybridization and genome dosage to vegetative vigor in perennial forage maize

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 128, Issue 3, November 2026.
SUMMARY Heterosis and genomic dosage each enhance plant vigor, yet their manifestation and underlying mechanisms in vegetative growth, particularly within polyploid systems, remain unclear. We synthesized and analyzed a series of Zea–Tripsacum allopolyploid trihybrids (MTPs) with varying genomic compositions to dissect the synergistic contributions of ...

Evaluation of maize and forage sorghum silage using Boran steers

open access: yes, 2015
Digestion and feeding trails were conducted to evaluate maize and forage sorghum silages in terms of chemical composition, digestibility and animal performance.
