Abstract
The analysis of grass silage by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) of dried samples is established as a valid alternative to wet chemical methods. Analysis of undried samples offers potential advantages in terms of :d of analysis and accuracy of determination of volatile components, provided calibration equations can be validated against independent populations of silage. Accumulation of analyses for a large number of pies allows relationships between silage nutrient value and management factors such as additive use, which are poorly understood, to be examined.
