  1. 1. Silage quality of grass and red clover-dominated forages as affected by particle size and additive, when ensiled at different dry-matter concentrations

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Författare :Malin Hamberg; [2021]
    Nyckelord :additive content; dry matter; particle size; silage quality;

    Sammanfattning : Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka effekterna av partikelstorlek samt typ och dosering av kemiska tillsatser på ensilagekvalitet och lagringsstabilitet hos klöverdominerat ensilage och gräsensilage vid två torrsubstans (TS)-halter. Partikelstorlekarna var ca 24 cm för långt ensilage och ca 5 cm för hackat ensilage. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Investigation of aerobic stability in extruded silages

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Författare :Gryson Mutabazi; [2021]
    Nyckelord :extruder; dry matter; whole crop barley; mixture; additive; silages; aerobic stability;

    Sammanfattning : In dairy farming, feed cost represents the highest single expense. To maintain a high milk production, feed intake must be maintained, and forage is the major feed for dairy cows in many parts of the world. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The effect of ration forage proportions on the microbial ecology of the Rumen

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Författare :Rasmus Vihermäki; [2019]
    Nyckelord :ekologi; grovfoder; kraftfoder; VFA; acidos; idisslare;

    Sammanfattning : Grovfoder utgör en stor del av kons foderintag och dess struktur är viktig för kons hälsa. En foderstat som till största delen innehåller kraftfoder främjar tillväxten av exempelvis Lactobacilli och Streptococcus bovis (S.bovis) som i sin tur producerar laktat. Laktat sänker pH i vommen och kan leda till vomacidos. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Intensively processed silage using Bio-extruder : effects on gas production and forage digestibility

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Författare :Emma Elgemark; [2019]
    Nyckelord :digestion rate; timothy; red clover; gas production; NDF digestibility; extruder Abstrac;

    Sammanfattning : The dairy cow requires a high feed intake to maintain a high milk production and forage is a crucial component in dairy cows diet. Forage stimulates chewing activity and rumination which contributes to a normal and effective rumen function. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Compact total mixed ration to dairy cows : effects on feed hygiene, feed intake, rumen environment and milk production

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Författare :Frida Petters; [2018]
    Nyckelord :CTMR; ; forage particle size; feed ration dry matter; DMI; milk production; rumen health; AIA; feed spoilage;

    Sammanfattning : Total mixed rations have been used as a feeding strategy in Swedish dairy farms since the 1990’s. One risk that has been associated with total mixed ration is sorting of the ration, which can lead to a diet being consumed by the cows other than the originally intended. LÄS MER
