Such material may have to be fed Abnormally fermented material at reduced levels to maintain often may have a smell that is appetites, production, fat test or quite volatile, acrid or strong from health. UNIVERSITY PARK (Centre Co.) — Weather conditions during most of the growing and harvest ing season this year have resulted in an increased incidence of abnormal fermentation in hay lages and whole-plant com sil ages. In some cases, these ensiled crops have failed to ferment to any appreciable extent Richard Adams, Penn State dairy cattle nutritionist says such problems may adversely affect feed intakes, milk production, milk fat test and/or health in dairy cattle. Adnormally fermented sil ages may contain more of certain acids, ketone bodies, amides, ammonia, and possibly toxic amines. If pH of the material does not fall to 4.8 - 5.0 or lower, more problems with mold, mycotoxins, clostridial enterotoxemias or botulism and listeria may occur. Com silages or haylages ensiled recently that have failed to fer ment or develop acid probably should be resealed for two to three weeks to give them another chance, rather than expose them to the air through continuous use. The protein in whole-plant com silage is not readily degraded or broken down in their rumen until it has undergone fermentation. Thus it is important to feed some what more total protein and, espe cially, soluble protein if fermenta tion failure occurs. Avoid feeding material with a lot of mustiness, mold or putrefac tion. Decayed or putrefied mater ,,l often is brownish and some- . hat slimy or sticky in nature and smells rotten. It can be a source of toxin-producing bacteria. Material that is heating or that heats in the bunk or manger often is not well enough preserved. Feed sufficient amounts to keep the problem at a minimum (usually 114 inches per KAW EN HBI farm etji P*. Still some models at closeout prices. Also new and rebuilt Wise, baler engines. S.S.
