Silage innoculants are discussed in this segment of the Pioneer Forage Forum, with information provided by Bill Rutherford, research coordinator, Pioneer Forage Additive Research Group. In addition to the much talked about L. buchneri, Rutherford provides information on organisms which also have an important role as components of silage inoculants. He explains why it is important to have multiple strains of organisms. The goal of the Pioneer Forage Additive Research Group is to bring products to market that help increase meat and milk-production efficiency and producer profitability.
