Vedclass · Answer

(A) Silage is a type of fodder made from green foliage crops which have been preserved by acidification,achieved through fermentation. In the process of making silage,the green plant tissues are chopped and stored in a silo. The lactic acid bacteria present in the plant material ferment the carbohydrates (sugars) present in the plant tissues into lactic acid. This acidification lowers the $pH$ of the material,which prevents the growth of spoilage-causing bacteria and preserves the nutritional value of the fodder for cattle.
