Two experiments were conducted using laboratory mini-silos to study the effect of ensiling and silage additives on fatty acid (FA) composition, including minor or unusual FA, of ryegrass and corn silages. Ryegrass was ensiled for 12 wk with no additives, with the addition of a bacterial inoculant or formic acid. Corn was ensiled for 9 wk without additives, with the addition of a bacterial inoculant or calcium formate. Ensiling affected both total FA content and FA composition of ryegrass…

Effects of addition of malic or citric acids on fermentation quality and chemical characteristics of alfalfa silage.
TLDR
Results indicate that including malic or citric acids at the ensiling of alfalfa effectively improved silage fermentation quality, limited proteolysis, improved fatty acid composition of the ensiled forage, and could provide animals with additional feed additives proven to promote animal performance.
Influences of malic acid isomers and their application levels on fermentation quality and biochemical characteristics of alfalfa silage
Influences of addition of malic acid or citric acid, Lactobacillus plantarum and their mixtures on fermentation quality, proteolysis and fatty acid composition of ensiled alfalfa
TLDR
Although MA and CA were not as effective as LP in improving silage fermentation quality, treatments MA+LP and CA+LP were more effective in decreasing silage NPN, and CA was most effective in inhibiting biohydrogenation of fatty acids in ensiled alfalfa.

TLDR
The T3 diet may have limited goat performance, which needs further study to improve the quality of silage.

Effects of forage species and stage of maturity on bovine milk fatty acid composition
TLDR
It is concluded that replacing grass with red clover silage prepared at an early stage of maturity represents a sustainable nutritional strategy for enhancing the MUFA and PUFA content of milk.
Effect of lipid supplements on ruminal biohydrogenation intermediates and muscle fatty acids in lambs
TLDR
Oil supplementation increased the concentrations of most BI in meat, however, the BI patterns were different for LS and SF, including the unusual cis-12,cis-15 18:2 which is proposed as a new intermediate of the 18:3n-3 biohydrogenation pathway.
Influence of herbage species, cultivar and cutting date on fatty acid composition of herbage and lipid metabolism during ensiling
TLDR
Differences in lipolysis in silage between cultivars of red clover were not correlated with PPO activity and this could be due to the lipid-protecting properties of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity in perennial ryegrass or white clover.
Towards improved silage quality – A review
TLDR
The possibility that in the future ensiling can become a tool for actually increasing the feeding value of forages is explored, and the relationships between silage fermentation quality and voluntary intake and between silages fermentation and protein and energy utilization are examined.
Effect of forage conservation method, concentrate level and propylene glycol on the fatty acid composition and vitamin content of cows' milk
TLDR
Hay diets resulted in milk containing lower riboflavin, α-tocopherol and β-carotene concentrations, but had no effect on ascorbic acid, thiamine, pyridoxine or retinol content, while forage conservation method had no clear effects on milk trans or CLA content.
