The experiment aimed to investigate the effects of a composite microbial strain on the nutritional value,fermentation quality,aerobic stability,and in vitro nutrient degradation rate of Macadamia nut peel silage.The moisture content of the Macadamia nut peel was adjusted to 50%using spray-dried corn bran.One control group(CK group)and four experimental groups were designed,with each group having a weight of 15 kg of Macadamia nut peel after moisture adjustment.The CK group was micro-fermented without the addition of microbial strains,while the experimental group Ⅰadded 1%of a mixed feed additive,group Ⅱ added 1%amylase+1%yeast,group Ⅲ added 1%mixed feed additive+1%amylase+1%yeast,and group Ⅳ added 1%amylase+1%yeast+1%mixed feed additive+1%phytase,with each group repeated three times.The micro-fermentation lasted for 30 days.The results showed that the sensory evaluation of group Ⅲ was the best,rated as first class.Compared with the CK group,the content of soluble carbohydrates,crude ash,and starch in each experimental group significantly increased(P<0.05),and the content of neutral detergent fiber significantly decreased(P<0.05).The crude protein content of group Ⅱ,group Ⅲ,and group Ⅳ was significantly higher than that of the CK group(P<0.05).The lactic acid content of group Ⅲ was significantly higher than that of the CK group,group Ⅰ,group Ⅱ,and group Ⅳ(P<0.05).The aerobic stability of the CK group was significantly lower than that of the other experimental groups(P<0.05),and the 48-hour in vitro dry matter degradation rate of group Ⅱ was significantly higher than that of the CK group,group Ⅰ,and group Ⅳ(P<0.05).The 48-hour crude protein in vitro digestion rate of each experimental group was significantly higher than that of the CK group(P<0.05).The study indicates that adding 1%mixed feed additive+1%amylase+1%yeast to the Macadamia nut peel with moisture adjusted to 50%using spray-dried corn bran can effectively improve the nutritional value,fermentation quality,aerobic stability,and in vitro digestion rate of the silage.
