Dual sensor measurement shows that temperature outperforms pH as an early sign of aerobic deterioration in maize silage
Abstract High quality silage containing abundant lactic acid is a critical component of ruminant diets in many parts of the world. Silage deterioration, a result of aerobic metabolism (including utilization of lactic acid) during storage and feed-out, reduces the nutritional quality of the silage, a...
