Fodder vs forage |

Conserved forage Explanation: Here is the relevant text: Due to the climatic fluctuations at Guatavita and its surroundings, where they have a dry period that can last between 2 to 5 months per year, the supply of feed for animals is not constant, and is often restricted. To avoid this problem, the use of conserved forage was considered as a strategy aimed to increasing the supply of feed allowance to animals. Two studies were proposed: in the first one, it was proposed to carry out the agronomic and nutritional characterization of two commercial varieties of Avena sativa, in order to recommend the best harvest time for the silage making. In the second study, supplementation was evaluated with Oat silage (Avena sativa), Kikuyu silage (Cenchrus clandestinus), Kikuyu hay, and a control treatment on the production and compositional quality of milk in small producers from the surroundings of Guatavita, under a restricted pasture allowance (3Kg/100Kg LW). According to the results obtained in the first study, and considering that each type of oat varieties was crop in different climatic surroundings, it is recommended to harvest the Avena sativa Cayuse variety in the maturing state of the milky-pasty grain (22ton DM/Ha), and harvest the Avena sativa Golden variety in the maturing state of flowering (18.5ton DM/Ha), to obtain the highest dry matter yields per hectare, and for later use as a feed supplementation for animals. Regarding the evaluation of the 3 types of conserved forage as a supplement in the dairy cow, no significant differences were found between the forage evaluated and animals without supplementation (control) for the production and compositional quality of milk (Protein, Fat, Lactose, Ash and Total Solids), or for the variables of weight gain (Final weight, Weight gain, Daily weight gain). However, significant differences were found for the variables of Energy Corrected Milk (ECM) (Kg/d), daily production of Total Solids (ST) (Kg/d), Fat and Protein (Kg/d). Supplementation with oat silage increased the ECM by 1.46kg/d, the TS at 140g/d, protein at 66g/d and fat by 50g/d. The use of the kikuyo silage increased the ECM by 0.76kg/d, the TS at 60g/d, the protein at 36g/d and the fat at 30g/d. No significant differences were found between control treatment and supplementation with kikuyo hay. https://repositorio.unal.edu.co/handle/unal/75833?locale-att...
