Effect of a microbial inoculant on fermentation characteristics, aerobic stability, intake, and digestibility of corn silage by rams

Summary Background: ensiling of whole-plant corn in tropical environments generally results in poor fermentation, and silages are susceptible to aerobic deterioration resulting in low acceptability by the animals. Objective: to determine the effect of a microbial additive on ensiling characteristi...
