Alfalfa Forage Production and Nutritive Value, Fermentation Characteristics and Hygienic Quality of Ensilage, and Soil Properties after Broiler Litter Amendment

Alfalfa Forage Production and Nutritive Value, Fermentation Characteristics and Hygienic Quality of Ensilage, and Soil Properties after Broiler Litter Amendment

Recycling broiler litter (BL) nutrients is an important strategy for sustainable forage production. However, BL can contain <i>Clostridia</i> bacteria that can contaminate forages at harvest, resulting in poor ensilage quality and botulism-related animal health risks. A better understand...
