Abstract

The purpose of the experiment was evaluating the addition of additives in sugar cane silage. The adopted experimental design was the completely randomized with 5 treatments and 4 replicates. PVC silos 40 cm high and 10 cm in diameter were utilized in the making of the silages with a density of 600 kg/m³ in each silo and the fermentative period of 90 days. The sugar cane ensiling with the additives L. plantarum associated with CaO provided the greatest reduction of the NDF contents and the highest pH level compared with the other associations of additives tested. And the silages were qualified with acceptable fermentative characteristics.
