The Effect of Using Lactic Acid Bacteria Inoculant on Forage Garbage Ensiling in Traditional Market as Feed Stuff

Abstract

This research aimed to know the effect of using lactic acid bacteria inoculant for forage garbage ensiling in traditional market as feeding material. It is expected can be useful as guidanceand information about using forage garbage ensiling in traditional market effectively and efficiently. ACompletely Randomized Design (nested 3x5x3) was used in this experiment. The first factor was inoculant of lactic acid bacteria: A: Lactobacillus collinoides; B: Lactobacillus delbrueckii; C : mixture A and B. The second factor was incubation time: 2, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 21 days nested in kind of inoculant. Each treatment is repeated for 3 times. The result showed that the lactic acid bacteria inoculant affects forage garbage ensiling in traditional market and bacteria inoculant of Lactobacillus delbrueckii was really the most effective to condition ensiling process to decrease temperature, pH, butiric acid content and high lactic acid content. In addition, bacteria inoculant of Lactobacillus delbrueckii evidently able to protect the reduction level of dry mater (DM), organic mater (OM) and crud protein (CP) compared to other inoculant. On the other hand, inoculant of Lactobacillus delbrueckii also able to accelerate the quality reduction stagnation and ensiling nutrition value, is that for 5 days, while other inoculant for 10 days. It is suggested that to obtain good forage garbage ensiling in traditional market, it is better to use Lactobacillus delbrueckii inoculant. Keywords: silage, forage garbage, lactic acid bacteria
