Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of adding an inoculums and an additive handmade in sugarcane silage (SCS) on in situ degradability of dry matter (DM). The treatments were T1) sugarcane silage without inoculum nor additive; T2) sugarcane silage with 1.0% inoculum and 1% additive. The inoculum made up with 10.0% molasses, 1.0% of natural yogurt, 5.0% chicken manure, urea 0.5% and 83.0% water; and the additive was formulated with 1.0% urea, 0.1% de ammonium sulfate and 0.25% phosphorus. Two Holstein cows fitted with rumen cannula (LW 650±50 kg) were used by a period of 15 d for adaptation to experimental materials and 3 d to collected samples. There were differences (p≤0.05) between treatments on in situ digestibility of DM. T2 shows higher percentages of DM compared with the treatment control or T1 in all incubation times; these results could be explained because the inoculums causes a previous fermentation of nutrients of sugarcane during the silage process. The use of an inoculum and additive on sugarcane silage changes the ruminal disappearance of DM.
