Abstract: The effects of Lactobacillus buchneri on silage quality of green corn-stalks was studied. Inoculation rates of L. buchneri were: 0, 3.05×104, 3.05×105, 3.05×106 cfu/g, under CS, CSL, CSS, and CSH. Sampling and determination of chemical composition was done on the 1st, 16th, 34th and 60th day after ensiling. Inoculation of L. buchneri increased pH value and acetic acid content, whereas, both lactic acid content and the ratio of lactic acid to acetic acid decreased, resulting in the promotion of aerobic stability of silage.
