    abstract = {In order to evaluate the effect of moisture content on the 
  silage quality of Italian ryegrass
  (<I>Lolium multiflorum</I>) three levels of moisture content (85, 75 and 65%) were 
  tested in the experiment. The results
  indicated that the value of ammonia nitrogen to total nitrogen ratio, the contents 
  of volatile fatty acid, neutral
  detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber were decreased significantly with the 
  decrease of moisture content
  whereas the content of dry matter, crude protein and water-soluble carbohydrate 
  were increased significantly.
  It was concluded that moisture content at a level of 65% was best for Italian 
  ryegrass silage.}
