Biological Basis and Research Progress of Forage Grass Products Processing and Utilization
High-quality forage is a vital foundational guarantee for the healthy and high-quality development of modern herbivorous livestock husbandry.It also serves as a crucial prerequisite for maintaining stable production of premium and safe animal products.The refined processing,stable storage,and efficient utilization of forage products are pivotal stages in the transformation from"forage"to"animal products."Systematically clarifying the biological characteristics of forage substrates,microbial composition,dynamic succession and metabolic patterns during the fermentation and storage,as well as understanding the nutritional transformation and utilization pathways regulated by functional microbial communities,are of paramount importance.Additionally,comprehending the enhancement and safety mechanisms of the entire chain involving"microbe-fermented forage-herbivorous livestock-animal products"is also very crucial.These efforts will contribute to improving the quality and safety of forage products,enhancing utilization and conversion rates of forage,promoting high-quality development in China's forage industry and herbivorous livestock farming,and achieving advancements in the quality and efficiency of herbivorous livestock husbandry.
