Abstract:The aim of this experiment is to investigate the effects of lactic acid bacteria and cellulase on the fermentation quality, chemical composition, aerobic stability and ruminal degradation characteristics of mixed silage prepared with amaranth and rice straw. Lactic acid bacteria and cellulase were used as silage additives, and the four treatments were as follows: control group (CON, no additive), lactic acid bacteria group (LAB, additive amount was 5 mg/kg fresh matter), cellulase group (CEL, 2 mg/kg) and lact… Show more
