Relationship between Losses of Fermentable Sugars and Changes in Organic Acids of Silage
1962
Kearney, P. C. | Kennedy, W. K.
SynopsisFermentable sugars were reduced to half of their original content under conditions simulating poorly compacted silage during the first day of fermentation. Due to the low initial sugar content of alfalfa, aerobic respiration caused greater deterioration in alfalfa than in orchardgrass. Organic acid formation in the resultant silage was related to the sugar losses.
