Determination of Different Ratios of Trifolium repens and Hordeum vulgare Mixtures on Silage Quality

38537

In this research, ensilage properties of different level trifolium – barley roughage mixtures were compared. Trifolium repens / barley levels were as follows; 20-80, 30-70, 40-60, 50-50, 60-40, 70-30. Silage materials were placed inapproximately 2 L plastic bottles by pressing, unless airlessnes were obtained, and covered strictly. After 60 days of ensilage period, physical properties of silages were determined considering colour, structure, odour and pH values. According to analysis of variance, there were no statisticaly significant difference between groups for dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM) and nitrogen free extract (NFE); however, for crude ash (CA), ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), crude protein (CP) contents, pH and fleig point (FP) values were significant. Average values were ranged from lowest to highest for DM, CA, OM, CP, EE, CF, NFE, pH and FP as (%27.53 – 31.38, 9.34 – 10.39, 78.46 – 79.86, 10.17 – 13.63, 1.92 – 2.36, 30.75 – 36.09, 42.02 – 43.05, 5.05 – 5.34 ve 47.00 – 65.75), respectively.
