Field and in-silico analysis of harvest index variability in maize silage [PDF]
, 2023 Maize silage is a key component of feed rations in dairy systems due to its high forage and grain yield, water use efficiency, and energy content. However, maize silage nutritive value can be compromised by in-season changes during crop development due ...

The new maize hybrids for silage
Grain Economy of Russia, 2022 Maize is considered an unsurpassed silage crop, so breeding in this direction is of great relevance. The study was carried out at the FSBSI «Agricultural Research Center «Donskoy» in 2019–2021. The purpose was to study productivity and nutritional value of the new silage hybrid combinations, to identify dependencies to optimize the breeding process. In

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023 Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

Energy Efficiency of Comminution and Extrusion of Maize Substrates Subjected to Methane Fermentation
Energies, 2020 The production of methane in the anaerobic digestion process is a proven technology, but it is characterized by low cost-effectiveness. The pretreatment of substrates seems to be a promising technology, which may increase the cost-effectiveness of biogas

Natural and CRISPR/Cas9 Editing Variations of Dual-uORFs Synergistically Increase the Nutritional Value of Silage Maize Feed. [PDF]
Plant Biotechnol JABSTRACT The precise enhancement of nutritional quality in silage maize is a core strategy for increasing livestock production efficiency. Through evolutionary analysis of multiple plant species, we identified two functionally synergistic upstream open reading frames (uORF1 and uORF2) within the 5′ untranslated region of the gene encoding GDP‐L ...

Common Reed and Maize Silage Co-Digestion as a Pathway towards Sustainable Biogas Production
Energies, 2023 The key factor in sustainable biogas production is a feedstock whose production has no adverse impact on the environment. Since maize cultivation harms the environment, biogas plant operators seek a more sustainable feedstock.

Effects of Two Different Chopping Lengths of Maize Silage on Silage Quality and Dairy Performance [PDF]
, 2023 Maize silage harvested at dough stage contains less fibre structure than grass silage. Due to higher proportions of maize silage in dairy rations and due to the fact that with longer chopping length of maize silage the contribution of fibre structure ...
