Advances in Silage Production and Utilization
Author: Thiago Da Silva
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9535127772
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Ensiling is a technique that is used to store food, mainly vegetable crops, to feed the herd when the forage supply from the pastures is not enough to maintain the productive performance of the ruminant animals. However, silage can also be used as substrate for biogas production and other different purposes. In the past years, we have seen many advances in the knowledge about silage production utilization, and this book is a compilation and discussion of the outstanding scientific research activities concerning actually the most recent advances and technologies that have been studied about silage and future demands. It is directed to a broad public of readers - farmers, academics, students, or anyone just curious or interested in the subject.

Book Description
Cropping decisions are important to the economic and environmental sustainability of dairy farms. Being able to feed alternative forage silages in addition to corn silage and alfalfa haylage to lactating dairy cows may increase the resilience of dairy farms. A series of 3 experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of partially replacing corn silage with the following alternative forage silages (AFS): brown midrib dwarf forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench)) or fall grown oat (Avena sativa L.) silages (Exp. 1), winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) or triticale (X Triticosecale) silages (Exp. 2), or brown midrib dwarf pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) silage (Exp. 3) The AFS were included at 10% of the diet dry matter of lactating dairy cows. The experiments investigated the effect on dry matter intake, milk yield, milk components and fatty acid profile, apparent total-tract nutrient digestibility, N utilization, and enteric methane emissions. Additionally, we analyzed the in situ dry matter and neutral detergent fiber disappearance of the AFS vs corn silage and alfalfa haylage. Sorghum was grown in the summer and harvested in the milk stage. Oat was grown in the fall and harvested in the boot stage. Wheat and triticale were planted in the fall as cover crops and harvested in the spring at the boot stage. Pearl millet was harvested at the flag leaf visible stage. Corn was harvested at one half milkline. All forages were ensiled. Neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber concentrations were higher in all AFS than in corn silage. Lignin concentrations were less consistent with sorghum, wheat, and triticale silages having higher lignin content than the corn silage, while the oat and pearl millet silages had lignin concentrations similar to that of corn silage. All AFS had
