Abstract

This study evaluated the effect of astragalus (AS) and hawthorn (HN) residues on the silage quality of alfalfa. Alfalfa was ensiled with additives (AS, HN and AS + HN) or without additives for 60 days. Results showed that the silage treated with AS and HN had lower contents of butyric acid and NH3-N compared with control, whereas no significant differences of pH and lactic or acetic acid content were found. Additionally, the treated silages also exhibited lower copy numbers of Clostridium, Enterobacter and fungi during ensiling process established by qPCR. In conclusion, AS and HN could be used as additives to control the growth of unfavorable microorganism and enhance the silage quality.
