Silage review: Interpretation of chemical, microbial, and organoleptic components of silages.
- L. Kung, R. Shaver, R. Grant, R. J. Schmidt
- Environmental Science, Medicine
- Journal of dairy science
- 1 May 2018
The goal of making silage is to produce a stable feed with a high recovery of dry matter, energy, and highly digestible nutrients compared with the fresh crop. Microbial fermentation in the silo… Expand
Silage review: Recent advances and future uses of silage additives.

- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of dairy science
- 1 October 2006
The results of adding Lactobacillus buchneri to silages from 43 experiments in 23 sources reporting standard errors were summarized using meta-analysis. The effects of inoculation were summarized by… Expand
The effect of Lactobacillus buchneri and other additives on the fermentation and aerobic stability of barley silage.
- L. Kung, N. K. Ranjit
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of dairy science
- 1 May 2001
Whole-plant barley (39.4% dry matter) was treated with various chemical and biological additives to assess their effects on silage fermentation and aerobic stability. Treatments were untreated… Expand
The effects of various antifungal additives on the fermentation and aerobic stability of corn silage.

- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of dairy science
- 1 June 2005
In 2 consecutive years, whole plant corn was ensiled in laboratory silos to investigate the effects of various silage additives on fermentation, dry matter (DM) recovery and aerobic stability. In yr… Expand
Effects of a live yeast culture and enzymes on in vitro ruminal fermentation and milk production of dairy cows.
Live yeast culture (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) grew best on malt extract agar and required incubation under aerobic conditions to maximize the number of viable cells. In sterile, anaerobic ruminal… Expand
The effect of Lactobacillus buchneri 40788 or Lactobacillus plantarum MTD-1 on the fermentation and aerobic stability of corn silages ensiled at two dry matter contents.

- 2000
Forages (corn silage and alfalfa hay) were sprayed with liquid enzymes prior to combining with a concentrate to form a total mixed ration (50% forage:50% concentrate, dry matter basis) and fed to… Expand
Effect of Lactobacillus buchneri 40788 on the fermentation, aerobic stability and nutritive value of maize silage
- N. K. Ranjit, C. Taylor, L. Kung
- Chemistry
- 1 June 2002
The effect of adding Lactobacillus buchneri 40788, a heterofermentative lactobacilli, to whole-plant maize and its effect on fermentation and aerobic stability of the resulting silage were evaluated.… Expand
