V. P. Tzai

It was determined in the researches that feeding animals with silage prepared with microbial ferment preparation "Axphast Gold" promoted dry matter digestibility of forages growth - at 2 %, organics - at 2,4, biologically active substances - at 2,8, fat - at 0,6, protein - at 2,3, fiber - at 2,1 %. Usage of ensilaged feeds made of permanent cereal grasses preserved with microbial ferment preparation produced by company Biotal, has a positive effect on nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus usage. Positive effect on concentration of volatile fatty acids in rumen of young cattle fed with silage with "Axphast Gold" was determined, proving more effective feed usage. Usage of permanent cereal grasses prepared with preservative kormoplus-1 and kormoplus-2 promotes average daily weigh gain growth of calves correspondingly at 8,2 and 6,0 %, decrease of forage spends - at 8 and 9 % and prime cost pf produce at 9,3 and 11,3 %.
