Background

  • Brazil – largest producer (FAO, 2014)
  • High dry matter (DM) yield - 50 – 100 t/ha (Oliveira et al., 2010)
  • High nitrogen use efficiency
  • Nitrogen fixation

  • Why make sugarcane silage?
  • daily harvesting of fresh forage is labor intensive
  • improves flexibility of harvest
  • better management of the field
  • preservation of nutritive value

cfu/g of fresh forage,

  • Calcium oxide (CaO) - 0.1 g/kg fresh basis,
  • 2 L SAFE (Salinity Agro)/t of fresh forage (S2),
  • 3 L SAFE/t of fresh forage (S3), and
  • 5 L SAFE/t of fresh forage (S4).
  • Openings: 21, and 100 d
  • Statistical analysis: effects of treatment (T), day of ensiling (D) and

Synergistic effects of sodium nitrate, potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate against various fungi and bacteria have been reported (Stanojevic et al., 2009). This suggests that the high effectiveness observed in the present study even in the lowest dose used was due to the synergistic effects of those preservatives, because the amount of applied of each ingredient was lower than that reported in previous studies (Bernardes et al., 2014, Hafner et al.,

2014).

Results and Discussion

SLIDE 17

The key effect of weak-acid inhibition of the growth of undesirable yeasts is usually attributed to the rapid diffusion

  • f undissociated molecules through the plasma membrane.

When the pH is low, the concentration of undissociated acids increases and the dissociation of these acids within the cells liberates protons and acidifies the cytoplasm disrupting internal cell mechanisms (Lambert and Stratford, 1999). There are other effects we do not know – need more studies

Results and Discussion

This was the first evaluation of Safesil in South America with sugarcane silage. This chemical additive markedly improved the fermentation by controlling yeasts which resulted in more DM recovery and better aerobic stability.
