“…Using pomace as a raw material for silage production may shift the characteristics of silage and change its content and composition of organic acids, digestible matter, and pH. These results were reported in studies with apple pomace that also indicated a reduction in the production of lactic acid [30,31]. Along with the increase in ethanol content in silage, the pH was increased, and the accumulation of lactic acid was reduced in relation to silage without pomace.…”

“…Since silage is an important component for animal production in periods and regions of reduced feed availability, some studies reported the effect of silage with pomace and fermented pomace in animal nutrition, health and the composition and characteristics of foods obtained from animals in these experimental diets (Table 2). For instance, recent experiments reported the effect of silage added with apple pomace in the diet of Suffolk wethers [30,31]. In both cases, significant reductions in digestibility and nitrogen retention, in relation to the control diet, were reported.…”

The generation of pomaces from juice and olive oil industries is a major environmental issue. This review aims to provide an overview of the strategies to increase the value of pomaces by fermentation/biotransformation and explore the different aspects reported in scientific studies. Fermentation is an interesting solution to improve the value of pomaces (especially from grape, apple, and olive) and produce high-added value compounds. In terms of animal production, a shift in the fermentation process during silage production seems to happen (favoring ethanol production rather than lactic acid), but it can be controlled with starter cultures. The subsequent use of silage with pomace in animal production slightly reduces growth performance but improves animal health status. One of the potential applications in the industrial context is the production of enzymes (current challenges involve purification and scaling up the process) and organic acids. Other emerging applications are the production of odor-active compounds to improve the aroma of foods as well as the release of bound polyphenols and the synthesis of bioactive compounds for functional food production.

Animal feeds under ruminant production are a challenge, and ruminants are mostly fed on fibrous plants including high-moisture plant by-products (HMPBs). These HMPBs are available during the food processing periods and cannot be fed entirely in their fresh form. These resources are conserved in the form of silage for future feeding. Silage-making entails the anaerobic preservation of forages with the aid of additives that reduce the pH of the ensiled materials and preserve the forage. Most silage research work focuses mainly on the preservation of forages/plants, with less attention on HMPBs. This review focuses on the silage production from HMPBs (e.g., pulps/pomaces), challenges involved in the ensiling of these resources, use of additives (e.g., chemical additives), and growth performance of ruminants fed silage from these resources. This review will assist farmers from developing countries who rely on HMPBs as sources of animal feed.
