Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effect of different additives (molasses, carob and gladicia) on in vitro fermentation parameters, feed value, feed quality and by using in vitro gas production technique and Ankom Daisy in vitro fermentation system by adding different additives to feed plant mixture silage at a determined rate (4.5%). A total of 4 trial groups were formed by adding 3 different treatment groups (4.5% molasses, 4.5% carob fracture, 4.5% gladicia), one of which was the control group, to the mixed silage of the feed plant. The prepared silage samples were vacuumed in vacuum bags (25x35cm) in 3 repetitions in a kitchen-type vacuum machine and stored at 25 ± 2 ºC for 60 days. With the addition of different additives to the mixed silage; pH, NH3, FP (fleig score), CO (crude oil), NDF, ADF, ADL, GP (gas production), Methane, %Methane, TDDM (true digestible dry matter), TDD (true digestibility degree), ME (metabolic energy), NEL (net energy lactation), OMD (organic matter digestion), DMD (dry matter digestibility), NYD (relative feed value) and RFQ (relative feed quality) were found to be significantly affected by treatment (P< 0.05).

As a result, it has been found that by contributing to the relative feed value and quality of feed plant mixture silage treatment, increasing energy content, organic matter digestion, total digestible nutrition, dry matter intake and the actual degree of digestion; it improves the quality of the ration.
