The corn cultivation for silage production in Brazil is made principally from genetic material of hard endosperm, which demands strategies of handling to enhance the digestibility, especially of starch content in the kernel. The objective of this proposal is: i. determine the least time of whole-plant corn silage storage, with or without microbial additives, to obtain satisfactory starch …
Silages make up most of the conserved forages used in beef and dairy herds in Brazil. During the fermentation, microbial growth leads to volatile organic compounds (VOC) formation. These products have substantial importance on animal nutrition. However, during silage feedout, VOC and other gases may evaporate and lead to nutrient losses and environmental pollution. The objective of this p…
