This study aimed to evaluate the fermentation pattern and dry-matter losses in corn ( L.) silage intercropped with cv. Marandu and cv.

Optimisation of the predictive ability of NIR models to estimate nutritional parameters in elephant grass through LOCAL algorithms.

Elephant grass is a tropical forage widely used for livestock feed. The analytical techniques traditionally used for its nutritional evaluation are costly and time consuming. Alternatively, Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) technology has been used as a rapid analysis technique.
