Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how lactic acid bacteria from the Tibetan Plateau impacted the fermentation quality of Elymus nutans silage at low temperatures.
- The researchers tested three specific strains of these bacteria, assessing their effectiveness against commercial inoculants at temperatures of 15 and 25 degrees Celsius over a 50-day period.
- Results showed that the isolated strains, especially LS-5, improved various fermentation aspects and silage quality at lower temperatures, but did not outperform commercial strains at higher temperatures.
The number of tillers and leaf regrowth of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and that of branches and stolon growth of white clover (Trifolium repens) in mixed ryegrass/white clover pastures under different cutting frequency were monitored from 1998 to 2000, and the herbage yields and the proportion of each component in total yields were also determined. The results showed that cutting could stimulate perennial ryegrass leaf regrowth and white clover branching, maintain proper proportions of perennial ryegrass and white clover in the mixed pasture, and create the environments for the coexistence of the two species. Therefore, the total annual dry matter yields of the pasture was increased.
