The aim of this study was to assess the different technological influences of the production of corn silage and silage from wilted forage. Corn silage and also perennial forage crops are an important feed for livestock. During their production is important to follow all technological procedures starting from the selection of seed forage crops to quality covering the silo. Failure to observe technological processes leads to problems of poor fermentation process which results in poor feed, which immediately reflected on the animals and then the whole economic management of the farm. Different technological procedures were reviewed and one of the common mistakes is poor covering silage. Results have shown that imperfect covering silage leads to poor silage fermentation process which takes place only under anaerobic conditions. It later also affects the loss of solids in the feed which may cause up to 30% of losses on the surface layer of silage. |
