In recent years, the use of microbial inoculants has been increased in Brazil, although the number of trials is still behind the international standards, mainly regarding animal performance data. In corn and sorghum silages studies, homofermentative bacteria represented the exclusive source of inoculants evaluated, which in turn, were also the major inoculant used for tropical grass silages research, whereas in sugar cane silages predominated heterofermentative bacteria. Usually, the application of homofermentative bacteria showed favorable results only for corn and grass […]

The effect of fibrolytic enzymes addition (cellulase and xylanase) on the DM, CP, NDF, ADF, and hemicellulose in situ degradability of Tifton 85 hay (Cynodon spp.) cut at 30 and 90 days and sugarcane bagasse were evaluated with six bovines cannulated on the rumen. The enzymes were extracted from Aspergillus niger and Trichoderma longibrachiatum fungi and supplied 0.75 g/kg of DM/animal.day, through ruminal cannula. The incubation times were 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours. The incubation […]
