Effect of the ensiling time of hydrated ground corn on silage composition and in situ starch degradability

Effect of the ensiling time of hydrated ground corn on silage composition and in situ starch degradability

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of time of ensiling on chemical composition and in situ degradability of starch of hydrated ground corn (HGC) with medium grain vitreousness. Corn grains harvested at 83% of dry matter (DM) and vitreosity content of 67% ± 3, were dried to 87% DM. Grai...
