dc.descriptionThe ensiling process is the technique of converting soluble carbohydrates into lactic acid, causing decrease of pH silage mass to levels that inhibit the microbial activity, but retains its characteristics (Ferrari Junior et al., 2009). Tropical forages stand out for high production however, the excess moisture at the ensiling time increases the risk of undesirable fermentation. In order to reduce the moisture excess, the addition of citrus pulp is a viable alternative due its high capacity to retain moisture. In this context, microbial inoculants promote the digestion of structural and nonstructural carbohydrates as starch, yielding soluble sugars used as substrates for lactic fermentation. The aim of this study was to quantify organic acids in the pre-wilted Tifton 85 silage made with the addition of enzymatic bacterial inoculants and citrus pulp.
