Abstract
The subject is reviewed with respect to the preservation of high moisture grains with organic acids and the subsequent performance of dairy and beef cattle, swine and poultry fed rations containing this feedstuff. The importance of preventing mold growth and thereby aflatoxin production is discussed briefly. Various types of grain preservatives and application rates are examined. The economic implications of the use of grain preservatives are explored. Grain preserved in this manner has been readily accepted by livestock and has supported high levels of milk production or rapid weight gains. It is a practical method of storing high moisture grain and is competitive with artificial drying or ensiling in silos.
