Abstract

Lecture at the seminar „Correct methods of conservation of silage and silage in pits“. It took place in Humpolec on March 21, 2024. Solved topics:
 Rate of fermentation acid formation, rate of pH reduction after pit closure, rate of silage acidification when using inoculants – difference between inoculated silage and spontaneous fermentation; temperature
 Fermentation losses, what are they caused by, as they are high, C02  Optimum acid content in finished silage and their significance
 Aerobic degradation – Risk factors on the wall of open silage
 Risk factors – Alcohols, molds (mycotoxins), yeasts, etc. Can alcohols form even in excellently compacted silage (anaerobic environment)?
