ABSTRACT The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the grain processing carried out by a device containing round and oblong holes attached to the inside of the forage harvester and evaluate its impact on the nutrient composition of corn silage, animal productivity, feeding behavior, apparent digestibility of the diet, and carcass traits of feedlot finished steers. The silages tested were: silage subjected to the grain processor (SGP) and silage not subjected to the grain processor (SNGP), which also […]
