Untreated and Microbial Inoculated Corn Silage in High Silage Rations for Beef Steers
Results of research reported a year ago (CATTLE 81-3) indicated that corn silage inoculated with a Lactobacillus acidophilus fermentation product had lower temperatures during the fermentation period than untreated silage. Lactic and volatile fatty acid formation was also higher for the treated silage. Dry matter recovery was only slightly higher for the treated silage. Digestibility of dry matter, crude protein and organic matter by beef steers was similar for treated and untreated silage. The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effect of inoculating corn forage of high dry matter content with a Lactobacillus acidophilus fermentation product. Response to inoculation was compared with untreated silage in terms of feedlot performance of beef steers fed high silage rations. Preservation of silage dry matter and chemical quality were also determined
Effect of Sodium Diacetate on Corn Silage Chemical Characteristics, Preservation and Utilization By Beef Steers
The purpose of this study was to compare untreate corn forage and forage treated with sodium diacetate in terms of chemical characteristics that occur during ensiling. Preservation of dry matter and utilization of nutrients by beef steers were also determined
Effect of Lactobacillus Plantarum on Microbial Populations, Silage Qualit, Utilization and Preservation
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of treating corn forage with a Lactobacillus plantarum silage inoculant on corn silage quality. Response to inoculation was compared to untreated forage in terms of microbiological composition during the fermentation period, chemical characteristics and preservation of dry matter. The study also emphasized digestibility of nutrients and nitrogen utilization by beef steers
Effect of Enzymes on Corn Silage Quality, Preservation and Utilization by Beef Steers
Research at the South Dakota Experiment Station has been directed toward methods of improving of corn silage making continues to be of interest to farmers and ranchers of South Dakota. The additives researched SDSU include viable and nonviable bacterial inoculants, organic acids, sodium diacetate, an ammonia-molasses-mineral suspension and enzymes

The impact of celestial pole offset modelling on VLBI UT1 Intensive results
Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) Intensive sessions are scheduled to
provide operational Universal Time (UT1) determinations with low latency. UT1
estimates obtained from these observations heavily depend on the model of the
celestial pole motion used during data processing. However, even the most
accurate precession-nutation model, IAU 2000/2006, is not accurate enough to
realize the full potential of VLBI observations. To achieve the highest
possible accuracy in UT1 estimates, a celestial pole offset (CPO), which is the
difference between the actual and modelled precession-nutation angles, should
be applied. Three CPO models are currently available for users. In this paper,
these models have been tested and the differences between UT1 estimates
obtained with those models are investigated. It has been shown that neglecting
CPO modelling during VLBI UT1 Intensive processing causes systematic errors in
UT1 series of up to 20 microarcseconds. It has been also found that using
different CPO models causes the differences in UT1 estimates reaching 10
microarcseconds. Obtained results are applicable to the satellite data
processing as well.Comment: 8 pp., accepted for publication in Journal of Geodes

Untreated and Microbial-Inoculated Corn Silage in High Silage Rations for Growing Cattle
The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effect of inoculating corn forage which was more optimal in moisture content than that in the 1982 study with a Lactobacillus plantarum fermentation product. The response to inoculation was compared with untreated silage in terms of feedlot performance of growing steers fed high-silage rations. Preservation of silage dry matter, chemical quality and utilization of nutrients were also determined

Sources of Supplemental Protein With Corn Silage for Growing Cattle
Previous research studies at this station compared the effects of conventional soybean meal, special heat-treated soy-bean meal or urea in supplements for finishing cattle fed ground ear corn. These supplements represent variations in protein solubility and amino acid composition. The objective of the studies was to determine effects of the studies was to determine effects of these characteristics on performance of cattle fed corn grain and low protein roughage (cob portion of the ear corn) finishing diets. Results showed a good response to protein supplementation in terms of feedlot performance with essentially no differences between supplements
