This study was conducted to utilize the wastes produced from thinning the forest as a roughage source for ruminants. Four ruminally cannulated Korean steers were used to investigate the ruminal fermentation characteristics and blood concentrations of stress-related hormones. Treatments were composed of the rice straw only (Control) and the 30% pine silage plus 70% rice straw(Pine silage) as roughages. The experiment was conducted with four replicates by a double tum over design. For sampling of blood under high temperature steers were accommodated in respiratory chamber. Concentrations of ruminal pH, volatile fatty acids and ammonia were not affected by substitution of pine silage. Mean concentration of blood thyroxine was significantly(P < 0.01) lower in the pine silage than the control. However, blood cortisol concentration was not affected by substitution of pine silage, even though it was significantly(P < 0.05) decreased after exposure for 6 hrs in high temperature. It was concluded that the pine silage using the wastes produced from thinning the forest could be use as a substitute roughage for reduction of heat stress in ruminant.

Three sheep fitted with rumen cannulae and abomasal cannulae were given daily 750 g (DM) of three diets consisting of straw-manure silage and barley mixture in the ratios of 75:25, 50:50 and 25:75. As the proportion of barley in the diet increased, there was an increase in the amount of OM apparently digested in the rumen and thole tract (P<.01). But ADF digestion was decreased. For the 25:75 diet the $NH_3-N$ content in the rumen showed the highest value, but the total VFA was the lowest. The rumen volume and dilution rate increased with increasing ratio of silage in diets. There were no significant differences between diets in abomasal NAN flow, and the bacterial-N for the 25:75 diet was 7.3 g N as compared with 9.2-9.6 g N for the other diets (P<.01). Rates of bacterial nitrogen synthesis in the rumen were 30.5, 24.1 and 14.9 g N per Kg OM apparently digested in the rumen for the 75:25, 50:50 and 25:75 diets, respectively.

본 연구는 부산물 혼합 silage 사료 급여가 한우 비육전기 거세우의 채식 및 반추행동에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 실시하였다. 시험에 사용한 공시한우는 21개월령 총 12두를 3처리로 배치하였으며, 이 때 처리구는 관행구 (C구: 농후사료+ 볏짚 자유채식)와 부산물 혼합 silage 구를 2처리 (T1: 농후사료+부산물 혼합 silage 제한급여 (1 kg) + 볏짚 자유채식, T2: 농후사료+부산물 혼합 silage 자유채식)로 하여 48시간 행동관찰을 실시하였다. 총 건물 섭취량은 T1 > C > T2구 순으로 나타났으나 상호간 유의적 차이는 없었다. 채식시간과 저작시간은 C구가 다른 구에 비하여 유의적으로 높게 나타났다 (p<0.05). 반추시간과 휴식시간은 처리구들 사이에 유의적 차이를 보이지 않았으며, 식괴수, 총저작수 및 식괴 당 저작수에 있어서도 같은 경향을 보였다. 그러나 식괴 당 반추시간과 FVI (feed value index)는 C구가 T1 및 T2구에 비하여 유의적으로 높게 나타났다 (p<0.01, 0.05). 분 당 식괴수는 T1구에서 높게 나타났으며 (p<0.01), 음수 회수는 T2구에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났다 (p<0.05). 배분 및 배뇨 회수에 있어서는 처리구들 간에 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 채식율에 있어서는 T2구가 다른 구에 비하여 유의적으로 높게 나타났으나 (p<0.05), 반추효율 및 저작효율에 있어서는 처리구들 사이에 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때, 부산물 혼합 silage는 볏짚과 비교시 반추행동상 큰 문제가 없기 때문에 차후 볏짚 대용으로 활용가치가 높을 것으로 사료된다.

중부 평야지에서 사료용 벼 기계이앙과 담수산파 재배의 건물 생산 특성을 비교 분석하기 위하여 국립식량과학원 중부작물부 수원 벼 재배 시험 포장에서 최근 육성 등록된 목우와 녹우 품종을 이용하여 5월 20일에 이앙 및 직파하여 3년간 검토한 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 담수산파 재배의 $m^2$당 입모수는 125~192개였으며, 출수기는 9월 11일~18일로 기계이앙보다 11~17일 지연되었다. 2. 기계이앙보다 담수산파 재배에서 수확기의 3년 평균 볏짚 건물중은 증가하였고 이삭 건물중은 감소하였는데, 볏짚 건물중 증가량이 이삭 건물중 감소량의 3.3배로 많아 전체 건물 수량은 증대되었다. 3. 건물 수량은 볏짚 건물중과 밀접한 정의 상관 관계를 보였고 이삭 건물중과는 일정한 관계가 없었으며, 출수 후 수확기까지의 볏짚 건물중 감소 정도와 이삭 건물중 증가 정도는 유의한 관계가 인정되지 않았다. 4. 건물 수량과 밀접하게 관련된 볏짚 건물중은 초장과는 상관을 보이지 않았던 반면 $m^2$당 수수가 많아짐에 따라 유의하게 증가하였으며, 기계이앙 대비 담수산파의 전체 건물중 비율은 이삭 건물중 비율과는 관계가 없었고 볏짚 건물중 비율과는 정의 상관을 보였다. 5. 기계이앙 대비 담수산파에서 $m^2$당 수수는 9% 증가하여 하나의 이삭이 차지하는 평균 면적이 감소하였음에도 이삭줄기당 건물중 비율이 비슷하게 유지되었다. 6. 따라서 담수산파 재배를 통하여 생산성을 높이는 동시에 노동력과 생산비를 절감할 수 있는 것으로 평가되며, 담수산파에서 이삭 생산량을 높이기 위한 품종 재배적 보완 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

This study was proposed to investigate effects of inclusion of Chinese milk vetch silage (MVS) and rapeseed meal (RSM) on the growth and rumen fermentation of Hu-sheep. Fifty weanling lambs were randomly divided into five equal groups and offered ammoniated rice straw (ABRS) ad libitum along with 100 g concentrate (Trial 1). The animals in $T_0$, $T_1$, $T_2$, $T_3$ and $T_4$ group were respectively supplemented with MVS at levels of 0, 0, 7, 14 or 21% and with RSM at levels of 0, 15, 10, 5 or 0%. Daily gain of lambs was significantly (p<0.05) higher in $T_1$, $T_2$ and $T_3$ group than that in $T_0$ and $T_4$ group. Feed conversion ratio was greatly reduced in supplemented groups as compared with $T_0$ group. In trial 2, five sheep with rumen cannulae were used in a $5{\times}5$ Latin square design. The experimental treatments were as described in Trial 1, but without concentrate. The intake of AVRS was significantly (p<0.05) lower in $T_4$ group than that in $T_0$ group, and also significantly (p<0.05) lower than those in $T_1$ and $T_2$ group. Little difference among all treatments was found in 48h DM degradability of ABRS, MVS and RSM, and in rumen pH value and microbial protein concentration. Rumen concentrations of individual and total VFA tended to be higher in supplemented groups than those in $T_0$ group.These rusults suggest that supplementation with RSM or RSM plus MVS can effectively improve the performance of lambs, and may fail to influence markedly the rumen digestion of ABRS and rumen environments.

Four crossbred Sindhi heifers with an average body weight (BW) of 135 kg and a mean age of 17 months were used to investigate the effect of feeding different combinations of rice straw and ensiled water hyacinth (EWH) supplemented with a source of protein in the form of cottonseed cake (CSC) on intake and digestibility. Four treatments consisting of graded levels of EWH were arranged in a $4{\times}4$ Latin square. The levels of EWH were set at: 0 (EWH0), 15 (EWH15), 30 (EWH30), and 45% (EWH45) of an expected total dietary dry matter (DM) intake of 30 g total DM per kg BW per day. Rice straw was offered ad libitum, while CSC was given at a fixed level of 5 g DM/kg body weight (BW). Voluntary intake and digestibility were measured consecutively in the 4 experimental periods which each lasted 28 days. The crude protein (CP) content of EWH, rice straw and CSC were 174, 53 and 370 g/kg DM, respectively. Rice straw had the highest neutral detergent fibre (NDFom) content (666 g/kg DM), followed by EWH (503 g/kg DM) and the lowest content was 418 g/kg DM in the CSC. The actual EWH contents in the consumed diets were 0, 17, 32 and 52% for EWH0, EWH15, EWH30 and EWH45, respectively. Rice straw intake decreased with level of EWH offered from 3049 for EWH0 to 1014 g/day for EWH45. Crude protein intake was 16, 25 and 33% higher (p<0.001) in EWH15, EWH30 and EWH45 treatments, respectively, as compared to EWH0. Digestibility of organic matter (OM), CP, NDFom and acid detergent fibre (ADFom) increased with increasing level of EWH offered. The highest OM digestibility (72.2%) was found for treatment EWH45 and the lowest (47.4%) for treatment EWH0. In spite of similar dietary CP contents, CP digestibility increased by 21 (EWH15), 31 (EWH30) and 40% (EWH45) with increasing level of EWH in comparison with treatment EWH0. It is concluded that increasing level of EWH in cattle diets considerably improved CP intake and digestibility of nutrients.

Rice straw is closely associated with meju fermentation and it is generally known that the rice straw provides meju with many kinds of microorganisms. In order to elucidate the origin of meju fungi, the fungal diversity of rice straw was examined. Rice straw was collected from 12 Jang factories where meju are produced, and were incubated under nine different conditions by altering the media (MEA, DRBC, and DG18), and temperature ($15^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$, and $35^{\circ}C$). In total, 937 strains were isolated and identified as belonging to 39 genera and 103 species. Among these, Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Eurotium, Fusarium, and Penicillium were the dominant genera. Fusarium asiaticum (56.3%), Cladosporium cladosporioides (48.6%), Aspergillus tubingensis (37.5%), A. oryzae (31.9%), Eurotium repens (27.1%), and E. chevalieri (25.0%) were frequently isolated from the rice straw obtained from many factories. Twelve genera and 40 species of fungi that were isolated in the rice straw in this study were also isolated from meju. Specifically, A. oryzae, C. cladosporioides, E. chevalieri, E. repens, F. asiaticum, and Penicillium polonicum (11.8%), which are abundant species in meju, were also isolated frequently from rice straw. C. cladosporioides, F. asiaticum, and P. polonicum, which are abundant in the low temperature fermentation process of meju fermentation, were frequently isolated from rice straw incubated at $15^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$, whereas A. oryzae, E. repens, and E. chevalieri, which are abundant in the high temperature fermentation process of meju fermentation, were frequently isolated from rice straw incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$. This suggests that the mycobiota of rice straw has a large influence in the mycobiota of meju. The influence of fungi on the rice straw as feed and silage for livestock, and as plant pathogens for rice, are discussed as well.
