Survey on the ensiling of the rumen contents and wheat straw with molasses
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
In this study ensiling the rumen contents and wheat straw was performed with four levels of molasses (0-5-10 and 15 percent of DM) and three levels of durability period (30–60 and 90 days). Samples were analyzed to evaluate dry matter, crude protein, pH and ammonia nitrogen (N-NH3). Also, the most desirable method of ensiling was introduced on the basis of ammonia nitrogen contents and visual evaluation. Factorial experiment was used in a complete randomized design with four repetitions to analyze the data. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the dry matter of first treatment and the others (p>0.05). Also, a significant difference between crude protein of all treatments and the fourth one (p>0.05), showed the highest levels of crude protein in the last treatment. The more the molasses levels increased, the more pH decreased with a significant difference (p>0.05). There was a significant difference between the ammonia nitrogen levels in all treatments (p>0.05).
