The concept of green biorefinery is based on the processing of green biomass into range of innovative products. The basic idea is to use the green biomass in the most optimal way to produce energy and marketable products. Grass silage has versatile properties as raw material for green biorefinery with …

In order to increase feed quality, additive has been used to increase silage storage stability. During feeding time, the silage is exposed to oxygen and a degrading process starts decreasing dry matter and increasing temperature. This rise in temperature makes the silage less appetising to cows, few …

The current situation of the Icelandic dairy production and the desire of the Icelandic farmers are the occasion of this study.

Inoculation of maize silage with Lactobacillus buchneri (5 × 105 c.f.u. g-1 of maize silage) prior to ensiling results in the formation of aerobically stable silage. After 9 months, lactic acid bacterium counts are approximately 1010 c.f.u. g-1 in these treated silages. An important subpopulation (5.9 …
