Calidad del ensilaje de avena forrajera (Avena sativa L.) conservado en tres diferentes tipos de silos artesanales

Abstract

This research work was carried out in the “Uywa Illa” cattle ranch of the Huancollo Community of the Tiahuanacu Municipality,with the objective of evaluating the conservation in three types of silos (trench, heap and bag) on the quality ofoat silage (Avena sativa L.) at 90 days of conservation. The response variables were: organoleptic characteristics, chemicalcomposition, and nutrient conservation efficiency. The organoleptic analysis indicates 96% good quality silage fortrench, bag and 85% silos in heap type silo, while 4% was considered poor quality silage in trench, bag and 15% silos forheap type silo. For analysis of chemical composition data and nutrient conservation efficiency, the completely randomizeddesign was used. The analysis of variance (ANVA) for the content of crude protein, calcium, phosphorus, metabolizableenergy and lactic acid, was not significant, the conservation efficiency of crude protein and metabolizable energy theANVA was not significant.
