Abstract:

Total mixed ratio(TMR)silage is a kind of nutritional balanced rations fermented by lactic acid bacteria according to a scientific diet formula based on the nutrition needs at different growth stages of livestock and the nutritional value of feed materials. With the rapid development of animal husbandry in China,the demand for high-quality feed is increasing. In order to reduce the excessive dependence on feed grain,the development and utilization of unconventional feed resources is particularly important. The expansion and popularization of modulating and processing technology for fermenting TMR silage is beneficial to the efficient utilization of by-products to solve the shortage of feed resources that restrict the stable development of animal husbandry. And the microbial communities of TMR silage play an important role in the fermentation quality and aerobic stability. Therefore,this article reviews the application of TMR silage technology,microbial factors affecting aerobic stability,and the diversity of microbial communities in TMR silage,and discusses the significance and existing problems in TMR silage technology. It is of great significance to realize the production potential,to promote this feeding technology to efficiently apply it to production practice. And this would provide new ideas for improving the utilization efficiency of unconventional feed resources and solving the problem of shortage in feed resources.

Key words: total mixed ration silage, unconventional feed, aerobic stability, microbial communities, research progress
