Biotechnology and the improvement of silage (tropical and temperate) rumen digestion: a mini-review

Abstract: As with forage diets in general, ensiled tropical residue feeds and temperate grass and legume herbage tend to have lower fibre digestibility, ruminal biomass production and feed bypass, resulting in limited protein nurition and intake in the animal. Various modified (recombinant and mutated) microbial inoculants might be used mainly to : (1) boost lactic acid production in temperate silage to stabilize against further clostridial protein breakdown during the ensiling process and effect silage fibre (lignin, c… Show more

“…5). In silage without an LAB strain inoculated, heterofermentative LAB strains originated from nature might grow and produce large amounts of acetate 1 . Results of the silage preparation also suggest that strains SP 1-3 and CS 1-8 were excellently suitable strains for silage-making in tropical regions.…”

“…In the study of [1] the proportion of free amino acids (FAA) of the total was 145% higher with the ensiled diet than the fresh (frozen) control suggesting that the protein was more soluble for alfalfa silage which would indicate the ENU with less pre-formed amino acids (PFAA) likely supplied on the ensiled diet vs the fresh diet. It was mentioned in [8] that the FAA in rumen fluid are very low indicating they are highly degraded.…”
