Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Primary ryegrass herbage dry matter yield increased across K fertilizer levels.
- Intervention effect Herbage K concentration rose across the K fertilizer series.
- Intervention effect Herbage ash concentration rose across the K fertilizer series.
- Intervention effect Regrowth herbage dry matter yield increased across K levels.
- Intervention effect K level had little effect on silage fermentation.
- Intervention effect K level did not affect silage intake potential, digestibility, recovery or effluent.
- Intervention effect Increasing N raised silage buffering capacity, crude protein, ammonia N and effluent volume.
- Intervention effect Increasing N lowered silage ethanol concentration and intake potential.
- Intervention effect Later harvest deleteriously changed silage chemical composition except lactate and butyrate.
- Intervention effect Later harvest decreased silage intake potential and digestibility.
- Observation K and N levels and K and harvest date generally lacked interactions for silage fermentation or predicted feeding value, except acetate and ethanol.
- Observation Increasing N had a more deleterious effect on silage composition and feeding value than increasing K.
- Observation Delayed harvest had the most deleterious effect on silage feeding value.
