Boosting starch digestibility in corn silage for dairy cows

The ruminal starch degradability of corn silage depends on the growing and harvesting conditions. When this is low, an enzyme can be added to the feed to boost degradability and hence animal production, fertility and herd profitability. For all dairy farmers, achieving herd efficiency and increasing milk yield are top priorities. For this reason, dairy producers invest in corn silage and corn grain that will deliver the most in terms of energy concentration as well as cost savings. In this proc
