Effect of Forage Processor Roll Gap Width and Storage Length on Fermentation Profile, Nutrient Composition, Kernel Processing Score, and Starch Disappearance of Whole-Plant Maize Silage Harvested at Three Different Maturities

Effect of Forage Processor Roll Gap Width and Storage Length on Fermentation Profile, Nutrient Composition, Kernel Processing Score, and Starch Disappearance of Whole-Plant Maize Silage Harvested at Three Different Maturities

Our objective was to assess the effect of forage processor roll gap width and storage length on fermentation, nutrient composition, kernel processing score (KPS), and ruminal in situ starch disappearance (isSD) of whole-plant maize silage harvested at different maturities. Samples from a single maiz...
