Abstract

There is provided a method for treating silage which includes adding to the silage a silage inoculant including a silage preserving effective amount of Lactobacillus hilgardii . The silage inoculant being effective to prevent or reduce aerobic spoilage.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified

1 . A silage inoculant comprising a silage preserving effective amount of  Lactobacillus hilgardii.    
     
     
         2 . The silage inoculant according to  claim 1 , wherein the  Lactobacillus hilgardii  is at least one of  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL51, having accession number CNCM I-4784 filed on Jun. 26, 2013 and  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL52, having accession number CNCM I-4785 filed on Jun. 26, 2013, or genetic equivalents thereof. 
     
     
         3 . A method for treating silage, comprising adding to the silage a silage inoculant comprising a silage preserving effective amount of  Lactobacillus hilgardii , the silage inoculant being effective to prevent or reduce aerobic spoilage. 
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the  Lactobacillus hilgardii  is at least one of  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL51, having accession number CNCM I-4784 filed on Jun. 26, 2013 and  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL52, having accession number CNCM I-4785 filed on Jun. 26, 2013, or genetic equivalents thereof. 
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the silage is traditional grass, maize, Lucerne, wilted grass, crop cereal or sugarcane silage. 
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the silage is in a bale, a bag, a bunker, a stave silo or a silo. 
     
     
         7 . A silage comprising a silage preserving effective amount of  Lactobacillus hilgardii.    
     
     
         8 . The silage of  claim 7 , wherein the  Lactobacillus hilgardii  is at least one of  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL51, having accession number CNCM I-4784 filed on Jun. 26, 2013 and  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL52, having accession number CNCM I-4785 filed on Jun. 26, 2013, or genetic equivalents thereof. 
     
     
         9 . An isolated strain of  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL51, having accession number CNCM I-4784 filed on Jun. 26, 2013 or genetic equivalents thereof. 
     
     
         10 . An isolated strain of  Lactobacillus hilgardii , strain SIL52, having accession number CNCM I-4785 filed on Jun. 26, 2013, or genetic equivalents thereof. 
     
     
         11 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the silage is traditional grass, maize, Lucerne, wilted grass, crop cereal or sugarcane silage. 
     
     
         12 . The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the silage is in a bale, a bag, a bunker, a stave silo or a silo. 
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 5 , wherein the silage is in a bale, a bag, a bunker, a stave silo or a silo. 
     
     
         14 . The method according to  claim 11 , wherein the silage is in a bale, a bag, a bunker, a stave silo or a silo.
