- Observation Untreated CDC Fraser barley forage yielded 1.86 t DM/ha.
- Observation Untreated Claymore barley forage yielded 1.46 t DM/ha.
- Observation Fungicide-treated CDC Fraser barley forage yielded 1.17 t DM/ha.
- Observation Fungicide-treated Claymore barley forage yielded 1.35 t DM/ha.
- Association CDC Fraser silage had greater lactic acid concentration than Claymore silage.
- Association CDC Fraser silage had decreased pH relative to Claymore silage.
- Intervention effect Untreated Claymore silage had greater aNDF content than fungicide-treated Claymore silage.
- Intervention effect Fungicide-treated and untreated CDC Fraser silages had similar aNDF content.
- Intervention effect With fungicide application, Claymore silage had greater starch content than CDC Fraser silage.
- Intervention effect Without fungicide application, barley variety had no effect on silage starch content.
- Intervention effect Total SCFA concentration in rumen fluid was greater for untreated CDC Fraser silage than for fungicide-treated CDC Fraser silage.
- Intervention effect Total SCFA concentration was similar for fungicide-treated and untreated Claymore silages.
- Intervention effect Valerate concentration was greater for fungicide-treated Claymore silage than for untreated Claymore silage.
- Intervention effect Ruminal SCFA concentrations and pH were unaffected by diet.
- Intervention effect Dry matter intake, milk yield and milk composition were unaffected by diet.
- Intervention effect Total tract nutrient digestibility was unaffected by diet.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen intake, and urinary and fecal N excretion were unaffected by diet.
- Intervention effect Total N excretion, milk N and apparent N balance were unaffected by diet.
- Intervention effect Foliar fungicide application on barley did not negatively affect silage quality or dairy cow performance, regardless of variety susceptibility.
