Silage typically contains a diverse community of microbes, primarily lactic acid bacteria (LAB) such as Lactobacillus species, which play a crucial role in fermentation by converting sugars into lactic acid. Other microbes present include yeasts and molds, which can affect the fermentation process and the quality of the silage. The presence of these microbes can vary based on factors such as the type of feed, environmental conditions, and the fermentation process employed. Maintaining an ideal anaerobic environment is essential to promote beneficial LAB and inhibit spoilage organisms.
