The study comprised six wild and seven cultivated berries grown in Finland, one imported berry and the rhubarb. The samples were analysed for sugars, starch, hemicellulose polysaccharides, cellulose, crude lignin, titratable and total acidity and organic salts, crude protein, crude fat and ash. Five berry species were furthermore analysed for the amount and composition of seeds. The sugar content of the berries is some 35—55 per cent of the dry matter, hemicellulose plus cellulose is 10—20 per cent, and crude lignin 3—10 per cent. A considerable proportion of the last two groups occurs in the seeds. The total amount of plant acids varies within a range of 10—20 per cent, and 10—30 per cent of the acids is in the form of salts. Titratable acid amounts to some 70—90 per cent of the total acid content. Seed content and the composition of seeds varies greatly. In some berries seeds account for one-quarter of the dry matter, and seeds may have a fat content that is nearly 30 per cent of the dry matter.

We analyzed the relationship to sour cherry quality parameters of average temperature, maximum temperature, minimumtemperature, night and day-time temperature, precipitation and climatic water balance variables. Three cultivars of sour cherry were includedin the selection: “Debreceni bôtermô”, “Kántorjánosi”, and “Újfehértói fürtös”.We conducted regression analyzes on the three varieties, butpresent only those that proved to be the best fit.We couldn’t find any significant differences in the weather tolerance of the varieties. The database of sour cherry quality parameters covers the 1998 to 2008 intervals. The researched parameters were the following: dry matter content(%), sugar content (%), C-vitamin (mg), total acid content (%). Maximum temperature, the difference of night and day-time temperature andminimum temperature all have a significant correlation with the investigated quality parameters of sour cherry. Minimum temperature showsa quadratic relationship with sugar content, while night and day-time temperature differences show the same with dry matter content. Theother weather parameters had a linear correlation with the quality parameters of sour cherry. The research results show that an increasingamount of precipitation causes decreasing tendency in total acid content of sour cherry, so that increasing temperature has a positive influenceon total acid content. Big differences in night and day-time temperature also has positive effects on the dry matter and sugar content of sourcherry while the amount of precipitation has a negative effect. High minimum temperatures cause decreasing sugar content respiratory energylosses are significant if dawn temperatures do not drop considerably.A more favourable climatic water balance has a positive effect on vitaminC content in cases of a large negative water balance, vitamin C content is generally low.

Sugars, starch, hemicellulose polysaccharides, cellulose, crude lignin, titratable and total acidity and organic salts, crude protein and ash in five Finnish-grown and four imported apple varieties were determined. The main group of apple flesh proved to be sugar, 65—80 per cent of dry matter. Starch occurred only in negligible amounts. Hemicellulose accounted for 7—11 per cent, and almost all of it belonged to the pectin group. Xylan, cellulose and lignin together accounted for 4.5—6 per cent. The total of plant acids in the Finnish varieties was nearly 7 per cent. In the foreign varieties it was much lower. 20—35 per cent of the acids were in the form of salts. The titratable acidity was 55—80 per cent of the total acidity.

In 12 sour cherry clones of cultivar Montmorency 5 pomological (fruit length, fruit width, fruit weight, stone weight and fruit stem length) and 4 chemical characteristics (soluble solid content, total acid content, invert sugar content and total sugar content) were investigated. Based on results of analysis of variance for all examined characteristics, variability components, coefficients of genetic and phenotypic variation and coefficient of heritability in a broader sense were calculated. Considering components of total variability, year represented the component that caused variability of majority examined characteristics in the highest percentage. Coefficients of genetic variation showed that in investigated clones total acid content varied the least (CVg = 1.79%), and the most fruit weight (CVg = 11.41%). The lowest phenotypic varying was determined for fruit length (CVf = 4.01%) but the highest for fruit weight (CVf = 13.86%). Coefficient of heritability was the highest for stone weight (h2 = 70.27%), and the lowest for total acid content (h2 = 7.73%).

Для увеличения производства продуктов молочного животноводства большое значение для хозяйства имеет рациональное и экономное использование концентрированных кормов собственного производства. В связи с этим проведены исследования по приготовлению жидкой зерновой (кормовой) патоки. Материалом для изучения являлось зерно собственного производства, а именно ячменя и пшеницы, взятого из хозяйства Княгининского района Нижегородской области. Переработка зерна в жидкую патоку осуществлялась на установке, разработанной в Княгининском университете, с использованием двух ферментов: МЭК-СХ-3 и «Полифермента». Существенный интерес вызывала массовая доля сахара в приготовленной патоке. В результате исследований установлено, что при использовании фермента МЭК-СХ-3 содержание сухого вещества, сырого протеина, сырого жира и сахара в пшеничной патоке было выше по сравнению с ячменным продуктом. Исследование выявили более эффективное использование «Полифермента». Так, уровень сахара в пересчёте на сухое вещество в приготовленных патоках составлял 7,3 и 8,77% из сырья ячменя и пшеницы соответственно. Следует отметить, что количество сырой клетчатки в пшеничной патоке было самое низкое — 1,48%. При производстве зерновой патоки с использованием «Полифермента», содержащего комплекс ферментов, содержание сухого вещества в готовом продукте по сравнению с цельным зерном было ниже. Добавление жидкой зерновой патоки в рацион сельскохозяйственных животных позволяет восполнить дефицит сахара. Известно, что молочные коровы положительно реагируют на увеличенное содержание сахара в корме, что приводит к повышению уровня поедаемости и усвояемости кормов, следовательно, положительно повлияет на молочную продуктивность коров. Optimal forage distribution is crucial for the dairy production sphere. This paper reports on the preparation of liquid grain molasses. Barley and wheat grain were obtained from the Knyaginino rayon, the Nizhny Novgorod region. Processing grain into liquid molasses was performed on the equipment developed at the Knyaginino University using MEK-SKh-3 and “Poliferment” enzymes. Sugar content was of particular interest in the molasses produced. Wheat molasses exceeded the barley one in contents of dry matter (DM), crude protein, crude fat, and sugar after MEK-SKh-3 application. “Poliferment” showed higher effectiveness. Sugar content amounted to 7.3 and 8.77% in barley and wheat molasses, respectively. Wheat molasses had the lowest concentration of crude fiber — 1.48%. “Poliferment” application reduced DM content in molasses. Feeding liquid grain molasses to livestock compensates for sugar deficiency. Higher sugar concentration in forage positively affects cow performance increasing fodder consumption and digestion.

SUMMARYTwo commercial bacterial inoculants (Lacto-flora and Ecosyl) were added to kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) at ensiling, in 1985 and 1988 respectively, at Cedara, South Africa, using laboratory silos. In 1985 (Expt 1), Lacto-flora was added on its own and in combination with the enzymes Celluclast or SP249. In 1988 (Expt 2), Ecosyl was added on its own and in combination with molasses, at two levels of addition.The addition of Lacto-flora alone did not significantly increase the lactic acid bacteria or the lactic acid content of the treated silage. However, treated silage contained 53·6% less iso-butyric acid and 53·7% less ammonia than the control silage. Kikuyu silage supplemented with a combination of Lacto-flora and Celluclast or SP249 had higher numbers of lactic acid bacteria at ensiling (0·231 × 108/ml) than the control silage or silage receiving Lacto-flora alone. However, only silage supplemented with the combination of Lacto-flora and Celluclast had a significantly higher lactic acid content (2·23 compared with 0·04, 0·18 and 0·13% DM for the control silage, silages with Lactoflora and with a combination of Lacto-flora +SP249, respectively). Nevertheless, this silage contained 19·78% more acetic than lactic acid.Silage supplemented with Ecosyl on its own did not differ significantly in digestibility, loss of dry matter, ammonia, total non-structural carbohydrates, lactic acid and crude protein, from the untreated silage. A significant decrease in silage pH (from 5·08 to 4·70) was observed when Ecosyl was added together with molasses at the higher level of addition only. However, no other benefit was obtained by the addition of Ecosyl in combination with molasses.

In laboratory conditions, the effect of sodium selenite and a mixture of sodium selenite and zeolite on the growth and biological productivity of peas was investigated. The soil was examined after harvesting. It was shown that the addition of both sodium selenite and the mixture of sodium selenite with zeolite to the soil with irrigation affects the development of the root system - the length of the main root in the first case increased by 16.5%, the height of the stems 30 days after planting was 29% more in comparison with the control variant, and in the second case, the length of the main root increased by 18.5%, the height of the length of the stems increased by 24% than that of the control. Processing of peas with microelements also caused a stimulation of the reproduction system: an increase in the number of inflorescences by 3 times and the number of beans in 3.4 times compared with the control. A 160-fold decrease in the selenium content and the introduction of zeolite did not cause a large difference in the obtained results (except for the number of beans - with the addition of zeolite, the number of beans increased by 8%). Biochemical indicators of pea biomass showed an increase in dry matter, in sugar content by 28.8%, but a decrease in crude protein by 17.7%, a decrease in carotene by 17.5%, nitrogen by 18% (when irrigated with sodium selenite). When treated pea with sodium selenite and zeolite, the sugar content increased by 85.5%, but it was observed a decrease in crude protein by 9.5%, in crude fat - by 16.5%, a decrease in carotene by 31.2%, a decrease in nitrogen by 9.4%. Analysis of the soil after harvesting showed in the option with the addition of sodium selenite a decrease in the amount of humus by 6.5%, mobile potassium by 18.5%, but an increase in mobile phosphorus by 6.6%, mobile calcium by 2.7%. In the option with the introduction of the mixture of sodium selenite and zeolite, no decrease in humus was observed, the content of mobile potassium decreased by 10.8%, the content of mobile phosphorus increased by 9.8%, mobile calcium by 3.5%. The acidity of the soil has not changed.

  Summary The aim of study was to investigate growth (crown growth and trunk diameter) and fruit characteristics [dry matter content (%), pectin (%), total acid (%) contents] of 10 pear cultivars ('Móri császár', 'Nyári Kálmán', 'Mogyoródi óriás', 'Fehérvári körte', 'Szegfa körte', 'Piroska', 'Mézes körte'). The crown development of the cv. 'Fehérvári körte' can be regarded as outstanding among the examined cultivars. The growth of the cv. 'Mogyoródi óriás' was low, this cultivar showed the poorest growth vigour. The width of the crown in several cultivars developed at a similar rate as the height of the crown. Outstanding values were shown by cvs. 'Fehervári körte' and 'Móri császár'. The development of trunk diameter was the highest for cvs. 'Piroska' and 'Hóka', and large growth of trunk diameter can be seen on cv. 'Fehervári körte'. Cvs. 'Mogyoródi óriás' and 'Mezes körte'showed weak growth. Outstanding dry matter content of fruits was measured on cvs. 'Fehervári körte' and 'Mézes körte'. The total acid content of fruits of cvs. 'Mézes körte' and 'Fehérvári körte'' was significantly different from the total acid content of cv. 'Mogyoródi óriás'. Pectin content was low in fruits of cvs. 'Mogyoródi óriás' and 'Fehérvári körte', while cv. 'Mézes körte' contained significantly more pectin. Vitamin C content we found was rather high in cvs. 'Mézes körte' and 'Fehérvári körte'.

Wood molasses from sulphate spent liquor was tested as a preservative for high moisture barley. In Exp. 1 wood molasses was applied at levels of 8 and 16 % of barley dry matter (DM). In Exp. 2 an application level of 12 % was compared with AIV II solution used at a level of 3 l/1000 kg. Barley was rolled before ensiling and water was added so that the moisture content was 55 % in Exp. 1 and 55—60 % in Exp. 2. Digestibility and nitrogen retention in growing pigs, liveweight 31—81 kg, were determined for dried barley, propionic acid treated barley and barleys ensiled with AIV II or wood molasses (12 % of barley DM). In Exp. 1 the application level of 8 % unneulralized wood molasses (pH 2) was sufficient to prevent deterioration during storage. The preservative effect was based mainly on the acidity provided by organic acids. With the higher level of application the lactic acid content was lower (P < 0.05). In Exp. 2barley ensiled with neutralized wood molasses had a higher (P < 0.01) lactic and acetic acid content and a lower pH value (P < 0.05) than barley ensiled with AIV II. Wood molasses decreased protein breakdown during the storage. The effect of DM content on fermentation and proteolysis was greater for AIV II ensiled barley. During the storage the sugar content increased because of starch hydrolysis. DM, organic matter (OM), NFE and starch digestibilities were lower on diets of barley ensiled with AIV II and wood molasses than on dried barley diet (P < 0.05). OM digestibilities for the diets were 82.2, 81.0 and 85.4 %, respectively. The digestibility of barley treated with propionic acid was slightly lower than that of dried barley. No differences were found in nitrogen retention.
