Resumo

This trial evaluated the addition of Lactobacillus plantarum, L. brevis and Enterococcus faecium
combo additive against a control treatment. The silages were made in laboratory silos that were stored for
30, 60, 90 or 120 days before opening. We evaluated the chemical composition of the forage before and
after ensiling and the fermentative losses of silages. The additive decreased (p < 0.01) effluent production
(11.4 kg ton-1) compared to control silage (14.0 kg ton-1), but it increased (p < 0.01) the Neutral Detergent
Fiber (NDF) and Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF) from 45.6% and 24.5% to 47.0 and 25.1% for control and
additive silages, respectively. The storage periods affected (p < 0.01) effluent production, Dry Matter
Losses (DML), NDF, ADF and pH variables. Fermentative losses were very low because of the adequate
characteristics of maize for ensilage.
