Chemical composition and nutrient degradability in elephant grass silage inoculated with Streptococcus bovis isolated from the rumen
The objective of the present study was to assess the chemical and bromatological composition and in situ degradability of elephant grass silages inoculated with Streptococcus bovis isolated from cattle rumen. A complete randomized design was used with four treatments and six replications: elephant g...
