Co-ensiling whole-plant mulberry with navel orange residue enhances fermentation quality, bacterial community, and in vitro digestibility
Co-ensiling WPM with 30-70% NOR for 15-45 days significantly enhanced fermentation quality, improved bacterial diversity, and increased in vitro digestibility. Overall, the optimal strategies for producing high-quality silage are co-ensiling WPM with either 70% NOR for 15 days or 50% NOR for 30 days.
