This limits the types of forage crops that can be reliably grown and harvested for silage. While many U.S. dairies rely heavily on corn silage, Canadian dairies often depend on legume- grass silage mixes, barley silage, or triticale that are better suited to cooler climates and earlier cuts. ...
Coryniformis Si3, isolated from grass silage, was able to inhibit the growth of a great number of mycotoxinogenic moulds includingAspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus nidulans, Penicillium roqueforti, Fusarium poae, F. graminearum, F. culmorum and Fusarium sporotrichioides(Magnusson & Schnürer, 2001). ...
Mg absorption occurred prior to the small intestine in cows and steers fed grass hay or silage diets (Khorasani & Armstrong, 1992). They found that net Mg absorption occurred also in the small intestine and both net absorption and secretion in the large intestine. ...
Measuring Dry Matter Accurately On-Farm With an Affordable Consumer Appliance When assessing the health and productivity of your dairy herd, dry matter intake (DMI) is one of the key data points to consider. If DMI is low, productivity suffers no matter the quality of the ration. Moreover, with low DMI, maintaining cow health becomes that much more ...
