A completely randomized experimental design was applied in both experiments. Silages without PEG had higher CP levels and lower ammonia N concentration (81.8g/kg DM and 55.3g/kg N. respectively) as compared to silages with PEG (70.6 and 63.4, respectively). High-tannin sorghum levels were not able to maintain silage aerobic stability, probably due to their low concentrations in the silages. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
