Abstract

The effect of carbohydrates sources (dent corn or flint corn or citrus pulp) addition to forages (corn silage, sorghum silage + silage of corn residue, elephant grass, sugarcane, silage of corn residue) was measured, through volatile fatty acids (VFA’s) production at the time of incubation of 2, 6, 12 e 24 hours. A completely randomized design in split plot with the time factor in the subplots Was used. The averages gas productions were treated by the France parameters. The acetate was VFA of larger production. It observed high and positive correlation between all of VFA’s of the present study.

KEY WORDS: Acetate, by-product, citrus pulp.
