Satellite Symposium 2: Silage
Event Title
Silage Production from Tropical Forages
Description
Key Points
- The determination of overall DM recovery is important in tropical grass silage systems
- Silage fermentation profile and aerobic stability: trends and additional effects
- Combinations of chemical and microbial additives might be useful for control of losses
- Fermentation products should be considered in order to better predict animal performance
- A critical points database would be a helpful management tool for the development of a set of HACCP principles for the production and utilisation of tropical grass silages
Included in
Agricultural Science Commons, Agronomy and Crop Sciences Commons, Plant Biology Commons, Plant Pathology Commons, Soil Science Commons, Weed Science Commons
