In high-income Asian countries like Korea and Japan, per capita rice consumption has declined because of the change in consumer' favorite foods from rice to high-cost quality foods. This has forced farmers to reduce rice production. Although fodder rice could be another option to be cultured by farmers, available information concerning rice grain silage has been limited. In the present study, therefore, the difference in the quality of fodder rice silage prepared from either whole crop or grain at different ripening stages was compared. Various supplements were also added into whole crop and grain silages of fodder rice before ensiling, and thereafter, the palatability of prepared silages was determined by beef cattle. At ear emergence stage, the pH values for both grain and whole crop silages were approximately 4.5. In both grain and whole crop silages, the pH values were significantly increased by progressing ripening stages from milk-ripe stage to yellow-ripe stages, and the increase in pH value for grain silage was faster than that for whole crop silage. In the grain silage, the higher lactic acid (LA) content in grain silage seemed to be, the lower pH value was. Both in grain and whole crop silages, pH was significantly decreased by supplementation with LA bacteria. There were no significant differences in feed intake among any treatment groups.

This study was carried out to find out the changes in the growth characteristics and feed value of the three different whole-crop silage rice cultivars of whole-crop silage rice such as Jonong, Yeongwoo and Mogwoo to develop an efficient double cropping system. This study showed that there were significant differences biomass and feed values among cultivars but no clear difference among transplanting dates. Dry weight and height were in order of Mogwoo, Yeongwoo, Jonong (p<0.05). Dry weight and feed value of Jonong showed no significant difference after 21 days after heading (DAH), it was expected to be harvested before DAH 30 days. Yeongwoo showed a lower dry weight than Mogwoo, but heading date was earlier than Mogwoo, so one can expect a higher feed value than Mogwoo. Mogwoo had lower crude protein and total digestible nutrient than the other two cultivars but relative feed value in stem was higher than that of the other cultivars, but had higher dry weight than other cultivars so it was considered to take an advantage as a silage rice. Therefore, the results of this study suggest that the selection of whole-crop silage rice on the cropping system be made comprehensively by considering the heading characteristics of the cultivars and the feed value.

본 시험은 품종 및 수확시기가 총체 벼 사일리지의 품질에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위하여 2004년부터 2005년까지 축산연구소에서 수행되었다. 식용벼인 추청벼와 총체 벼 전용품종인 하마사리를 이용하여 생육시기별로 6회(출수기, 개화기, 유숙기, 호숙기, 황숙기 및 완숙기)에 걸쳐 수확을 하여 사일리지로 조제하였다. 조단백질 함량은 숙기가 진행됨에 따라 감소되었으며 TDN 함량은 증가되었다. 평균 조단백질 함량은 총체 벼 전용품종이 식용벼 품종보다는 높게 나타났다. ADF 및 NDF 함량은 숙기가 진행됨에 따라 감소되었으며 ADF로 추정된 TDN 함량은 숙기가 진행됨에 따라 증가되었다. 그러나 품종간에는 통계적 유의성이 나타나지 않았다(p<0.05). 사일리지의 평균 pH는 4.69 이었으며 숙기가 진행됨에 따라 증가하였다. 생육이 진행됨에 따라 초산 및 낙산 함량은 감소되었으나 젖산 함량은 증가되었다. 품질등급은 호숙기에서 가장 우수하였다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼때 총체 벼 사일리지는 전용 품종이 일반 벼 품종보다 약간 개선되는 것으로 나타났으나 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 따라서 양질의 총체 벼 사일리지 조제를 위해서는 호숙기 전후에 수확하여 사일리지를 만드는 것이 추천된다.

In Japan, since rice consumption has been decreasing with the westernization of Japanese eating habits, surplus paddy fields have been increasing. If these surplus paddy fields can be utilized for forage rice production as feed for animal production and excretions (feces and urine) from animal production can be applied to the paddy fields as manure, then the problems of surplus paddy fields and excretions from animal production may be solved, and the environment kept sustainable. The objectives of the present study were to apply a bio-economic model to dairy and forage rice integration systems in Japan and to examine the merit of introducing whole crop rice silage (WCRS), as well as economic and environmental effects of various economic and management options in the systems. Five simulations were conducted using this model. The use of WCRS as a home-grown feed increased environmental loads and decreased economic benefit because of the higher amount of purchased feed, when compared to the use of typical crops such as maize, alfalfa and timothy silage (simulation 1). Higher economic benefits from higher forage rice yields and higher milk production of a dairy cow were obtained (simulations 2, 3). There were no economic and environmental incentives for utilizing crude protein (CP) rich WCRS, because an increase in the CP content in WCRS led to the use of more chemical fertilizers, resulting in high production costs and nitrogen outputs (simulation 4). When evaluated under the situation of a fixed herd size, increasing forage rice yields decreased the total benefit of the production, in spite of the fact that the amount of subsidies per unit of land increased (simulation 5). It was indicated that excess subsidy support may not promote yield of forage rice. It was, however, observed in most cases that dairy and forage rice integration systems could not be economically established without subsidies.

이 연구는 고품질 귀리 사일리지의 제조를 위한 수확시기별 적정 예건시간을 도출하고자 수행하였다. 시험은 국내 육성품종인 삼한귀리를 가을에 파종하고 이듬해 봄인 출수 후 20일 부터 10일 간격으로 3회에 걸쳐 수확하여 각 수확시기별로 0, 4, 8, 32시간동안 예건을 실시하였으며, 각 예건시간별 식물체의 수분변화와 사일리지 제조 후 품질을 분석하였다. 그 결과 귀리는 출수 후 20일 정도에 수확할 경우 4시간 정도 포장예건을 하고, 출수 후 30일 정도에 수확할 경우에는 사일리지 제조에 적합한 수분함량에 도달하여 예건이 필요하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 사일리지도 수분함량이 약 55~65% 정도가 도달한 시기에 수확한 처리구나 그 수준에 도달하도록 예건한 처리구에서 전체적인 사료가치가 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 사일리지 품질 평가기준의 중요한 요인인 pH와 유기산은 수분변화에 따라 아주 큰 변이를 보였는데 55~65%의 수분조건에서 젖산 함량이 높게 나타났고, 초산과 낙산 함량이 낮았다. 따라서 귀리는 출수 후 20일 경에 수확 시에는 4시간 정도 포장예건을 하는 것이 바람직하고, 그 이후에는 바로 수확하여 곤포로 제조하여도 양질의 사일리지를 생산할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of replacing whole crop corn silage (WCCS) with whole crop rice silage (WCRS) in the total mixed ration (TMR) on nutrient intake, milk yield and its composition in Holstein cows. The Chucheong rice variety (Oryza sativa L. Japonica) and corn (Pioneer 32 P75) were harvested at yellow-ripe stage and were ensiled in round bales and in trench silos, respectively. Two TMR containing either WCCS or WCRS were prepared. These diets were randomly assigned to 16 midlactating Holstein cows (8 cows per treatment) and were fed for 120 days. The first 20 days were used for dietary adaptation and for the next 100 days daily feed intake, milk yield and its composition were recorded. The pH, lactic acid, NDF, ADF, CP, Ca and P contents were similar in WCRS and WCCS. The DM, ash and EE contents of WCRS were greater compared with WCCS. Nutrient (DM, NDF, TDN and CP) intakes were similar in cows fed WCCS- and WCRS-based TMR. Daily and 4% fat corrected milk yield were not affected by the treatments. Milk composition (percent milk fat, protein, lactose and total solids) was similar in cows fed either WCCS- or WCRSbased TMR. The concentration of milk urea N was greater in cows fed WCRS-based TMR than those fed WCCS-based TMR. In conclusion, round-baled WCRS can replace WCCS in the diet of mid- to late-lactating Holsteins without any deleterious effects on feed consumption, milk yield and its composition. The present findings raise the possibility that WCRS can be used as an alternative roughage source in the diets of dairy cows in countries with surplus rice production.

This study was carried out between November 2007 and October 2008 in the experimental farm of Chunnam National University to investigate the effect of feeding of whole crop barley silage on the reproductive performance of Hanwoo heifers and cows. Two diets, rice straw or whole crop barley silage separately from concentrate were fed 11 Hanwoo heifers and 26 Hanwoo cows. In control group (=CON), heifers (n=6) and cows (n=13) were fed 7 kg (/head) rice straw and 4 kg (/head) commercial diet. In whole crop barley silage group (=WBG), heifers (n=5) and cows (n=13) were fed 8 kg (/head) whole crop barley silage and 1 kg (/head) commercial diet. 1. Conception rates for first service in CON or WBG heifers were 66.7% (4/6) and 60.0% (3/5), respectively, and the services per conception cows were $1.5{\pm}0.2$ for CON and $1.4{\pm}0.2$ for WBG group. 2. Days to post-partum insemination were $106.6{\pm}26.3$ days for CON and $85.6{\pm}12.6$ days for WBG group, and days to post-partum conception in CON or WBG were $128.4{\pm}27.1$ and $96.8{\pm}16.8$ days, respectively. 3. Post-partum conception rates for first service in CON or WBG were 76.9% (10/13) and 84.6% (11/13), respectively, and caving interval was $418{\pm}50.7$ days for CON and $392.8{\pm}20.7$ days for WBG group.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of different feeding ratios of whole crop barley silage on the embryo production in Hanwoo donors. All donors were basically fed 2.5 kg concentrate daily. Donors were divided into three groups according to the different feeding of forage; hay 70% and rice straw 30% (control, n = 21), whole crop barley silage 80% and rice straw 20% (T1, n = 25), and whole crop barley silage 60% and rice straw 40% (T2, n = 23) fed based on TDN 6.70/ BW 500 kg. All Hanwoo donors received a CIDR together with injections of 1 mg estradiol benzoate and 50 mg progesterone ($P_4$, Day 0). Four days later, they were superovulated with 28 mg FSH twice daily IM in decreasing doses over 4 days. Then donors received 2 doses of $PGF_2{\alpha}$ (25 and 15 mg) with the 5th and 6th injections of FSH on Day 6. CIDR were withdrawn at the 6th FSH injection and the donors received $100\;{\mu}g$ GnRH 36 h after the second $PGF_2{\alpha}$ injection. The donors were artificially inseminated twice, at 8 and 24 h after GnRH, and embryos were recovered 7 or 8 days after the 1st insemination. The flush rate of the donors following positive superovulation responses did not differ among groups (76.2~96.0%, p>0.05). The number of corpus luteum (CL) at embryo recovery also did not differ among groups (10.6~14.0, p>0.05). Furthermore, the mean numbers of total ova (9.4, 10.5 and 12.0) and transferable embryos (5.3, 12.0 and 6.5) did not significantly differ among the control, T1 and T2 groups, respectively (p>0.05). However, mean concentrations of serum $P_4$ of the T1 (64.2 ng/ml) and T2 groups (55.7 ng/ml) were higher than that of control group (43.3 ng/ml, p<0.01), while serum cholesterol concentrations in the control (105.8 mg/dl) and T2 groups ($96.9\;{\pm}\;mg/dl$) were significantly lower than in the T1 group (121.1 mg/dl, p<0.05). Conclusively, whole crop barley silage can be fed a good substitute for hay forage for Hanwoo donors. Furthermore the ratios of whole crop barley silage 60% and rice straw 40% might be more worthful for embryo production.

The yield performance and nutrient quality of barley for pellets making from whole crop material were discussed during 1993-1994. Barley (cv. Olbori) was grown on paddy land after rice cutivation and was harvested at early stage of physiological maturity. A column type of whole crop pellets was produced by 1.5cm diameter and 2.5cm height. Barley war evaluated as a suitable materials for whole crop pellet making. Barley produced higher yield and better qualitative roughage in the utilization of pellet making than in the silage making. Dry matter yields were obtained 12.02 MTha in pellet making and 11.70 MT/ha in silage making. Net energy value of barley pellet were 6.54 MJ in net energy lactation and 635 SV in starch equivalent net energy. Feeding of barley pellet improved milk production of daily cattle Daily milk yields per head were 25.1 liter in silage feeding and 25.9 liter in pellet feeding. Production cost of pellets and silages made from whole crop barley were 169.07 won/kg and 124.15 won/kg dry matter, respectively.

이 연구는 비닐겹수 및 저장기간 따른 청보리 사일리지의 사료가치 및 사일리지 품질특성을 구명하고자 수행하였다. 조단백질 함량은 저장기간 모두 사일리지 제조 전에 비해 높아지는 경향을 보였고, 저장기간이 길어질수록 약간 높은 값을 보였지만 통계적인 유의성은 없었다. 비닐겹수에 따라서는 6겹 처리한 처리구가 4겹보다 높은 경향이었다. NDF와 ADF 함량은 저장기간 모두 사일리지 제조 전보다 높은 경향을 보였고(p<0.05), 저장기간에 따라서는 비슷한 값을 나타냈다. 비닐 겹수에 따라서는 6겹 처리한 처리구가 4겹보다 더 높은 값을 나타냈다. TDN 함량은 저장기간 모두 사일리지 제조 전보다 낮은 경향을 보였고, 저장기간에 따라서는 비슷한 값을 보였다. 비닐겹수에 따라서는 6겹에서 다소 낮은 값을 보였다. pH는 저장기간이 길어짐에 따라 낮아지는 경향을 보였고, 비닐겹수에 따라서는 6겹에서 4겹보다 낮은 값을 보였다. 유기산 함량에서는 저장기간이 길어짐에 따라 젖산함량은 약간 증가하는 경향을 보였고, 초산함량은 낮아지는 경향을 보였으며 낙산함량은 유의적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였다(p<0.05). 비닐겹수에 따라서는 6겹에서 4겹보다 높은 젖산함량과 낮은 낙산함량을 보였다(p<0.05). 따라서 청보리 사일리지는 장기저장을 할 경우에는 6겹으로 하는 것이 유리하고, 4겹으로 처리했을 경우 6개월 안에 사용하는 것이 유리하다고 판단된다.
