Caracterización microbiana y fermentativa de ensilaje de maíz forrajero (Zea mays) con inclusión de cáscara de plátano (Musa paradisiaca)”

This research aimed to carry out the microbial and fermentative characterization of silage of forage corn (Zea mays) including banana peel (Musa paradisiaca), the same that was carried out in the Rumiology laboratory in the experimental farm “La María”, From the State Technical University of Quevedo, located at km 7 of the Vía Quevedo – El Empalme, San Felipe Campus, Mocache canton. A Completely Random Design (DCA) was used, with five treatments of corn fodder silages with the inclusion of 25, 50, 75 and 100% banana peel and five repetitions. The bromatological composition of the silage, the microbiological and fermentative behavior (fungi, yeasts, lactic and total bacteria) and aerobic stability (pH and temperature) were evaluated. The results indicated that T1 (100% corn fodder) was the treatment that obtained the lowest averages in regards to fungi and yeasts, however in the growth of lactic and total bacteria it was the treatment that registered the highest value of 8.60 and 8.81 respectively. Within aerobic stability the pH evaluated indicates that there were no considerable variations except for the 0 hours where this varied between treatments, however at 96 and 120 hours it was the same in all treatments and an increase in its value was observed when passing the hours; the temperature at 48 hours indicated variations between the treatments while at 0 and 144 hours the temperature between treatments of 23°C and 26°C, respectively, is maintained. Key words: bromatological composition, silage, aerobic stability, banana.
