Abstract

The experiment was conducted to compare effects of feeding beef cattle with wheat straw treated by three stover ferment agents made by research team. The fermented wheat straw of three ferment agents showed a good sensory and apparent properties, the fiber digestibility of 3 treatment groups increased by 2.80%, 11.27%, and 12.82% compared with control group respectively; the weight gain of beef cattle in treatment groups was 49.7%, 54.8%, and 63.8% greater than in control group, the number 3 ferment agent demonstrated the best result. The effects and economic benefit of wheat straw fermentation was superior to ammoniated wheat straw.
