We studied the effect of a lactic acid bacterial additive on the quality of silage made of grass-legume mixtures in the forest steppe zone of Mongolia.
A high quality silage can be obtained applying a fermented liquid additive prepared on the basis of the pure cultures of lactic acid bacteria....
We studied the effect of a lactic acid bacterial additive on the quality of silage made of grass-legume mixtures in the forest steppe zone of Mongolia. The use of lactic acid bacterial ferment positively influenced the diet digestion and the cows silage consumption. The cows ate well the silage treated...
Forage samples from Stipa caphillata-Cleistogenes squarrosa communities from the Eastern Mongolian rangelands were analysed for chemical composition and digestibility. Samples were collected at 10-days intervals from 30th June to 10th September.
The study indicated that OM content of Stipa caphillata-Cleistogenes squarrosa communities ranged from 94.4 to 95.2%. The highest value...
Desert, desert-steppe (Gobi) zone is the largest province by area (165,000 square kilometres) of Mongolia. The Gobi contains some 560 plant species, in 80 different vegetation associations (Swift, 1991). There are number of results of nutritive value of desert-steppe’s pasture grass. Mongolia’s dry climate means that pasture grasses have less...
High mountains pasture had a marginally higher degradability compared to forest steppe and steppe in Mongolia. Based on results of analysis of pastures taken all-year-round, we subjectively group the time into 4 periods, i.e. before April, May-June, July-September, After September. The time periods also corresponds to vegetative stage of pasture...
I believe quetzal and aguacatillo are the key species in the cloud forests in Cerro de la Muerte because they are biologically and culturally valuable. This value contributes to ecotourism, which eventually becomes of economic benefit to local people. In this paper, I examine how the cloud forest conservation and...
