INFLUENCE OF CORN SILAGE STRUCTURAL CARBOHYDRATE COMPOSITION ON ENERGY VALUE
Abstract
In the presented work, the composition of structural carbohydrates of corn silage was studied and their correlations with energy value were established. The research showed that between cellulose and lignin, as a complex included in the acid detergent fiber, the correlation relationship was high and negative – r = -0.71. It was found that the average lignin content in the selected samples was 6.97%±0.06, the correlation between the structural carbohydrates of ADF and lignin content was insignificant and weak – r = 0,15. Based on the obtained correlations, it may be concluded that with increasing lignin concentration with plant age, there is a quantitative decrease in cellulose content in the plant cell wall.
