КАЧЕСТВО СЕНАЖА ИЗ ЛЮЦЕРНЫ, ПРИГОТОВЛЕННОГО С ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЕМ БИОКОНСЕРВАНТА «ГРИНГРАС 3×3»

Abstract

The aim of the research is to improve the quality and nutritional value of the alfalfa haylage applying the «Green-grass 3×3» biopreservative with herbage. Current biological preparations contain live cultures of specially selected lactic, propionic acids, and sporogenous bacillus, a complex of amino acids, enzymes, vitamins and minor nutrient elements. Preparation use with herbage during haylage leads to intensification the lactic acid fermentation, im-provement of ratio of organic acids, increase the content of nutrients and ensuring their reliable safety during stor-age. The research was carried out at the milk production complex of «Radna» LLC in the Samara region. The re-search was provided involving Holstein and Ayrshire breeds. The haylage was fed to cows in the amount of 24 kg as part of a balanced feed mixture in accordance with the casein diet. As a result of applying a bio-preservative with herbage, the content of organic acids in the ready made feeds increased by 0.54%, including lactic acid – by 0.80%. The dry weight increased by 4.6%, available energy – by 37.4%, energy feed units – by 9.1%, digestible protein – by 13.8%, crude fiber – by 0.9%. Feeding the cows haylage with a bioconservative increased the meta-bolic processes in the tripe of animals. Ciliata weight in the ruminal fluid of Holstein cows increased by 29.0%, Ayr-shire – by 25.8%, number of bacteria, respectively, by 26.5 and 27.5%. As a result, the content of total nitrogen in-creased by 15.0-15.1%, protein nitrogen – by 40.4-42.9%, and ammonia, on the contrary, decreased by 40.0-40.6%. The content of volatile fatty acids decreased by 12.6-16.2%, while the proportion of acetic acid increased by 7.73-8.71%. All this had a positive effect on the digestibility of nutrients by the animals of the experimental groups. The digestibility of the dry weight of the feed increased, respectively, by 4.14-4.57%, and its components – by 4.23-6.97%.
