Abstract: This study was carried out to determine the effects of actic acid bacterial inoculant on the fermentation and aerobic stability of sunflower silages.Sunflower was harvested at the milk stage.Inoculant-1174 (Pioneer®,USA) was used as homofermentative lactic acid bacterial inoculant.Inoculant was applied 6.00 log 10 cfu/g silage levels.Silages with no additive served as controls.After treatment, the chopped sunflower was ensiled in the PVC type laboratory silos.Three silos for each group were sa mpled for chemical and microbiological analysis on days 2, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 56 after ensiling.At the end of the ensiling period, all silages were subjected to an aerobic stability test for 14 days.Neither inoculant improved the fermentation parameters of sunflower silages.At the end of the ensiling period, inoculant increased lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and decreased yeast and mould numbers of silages.Inoculant treatment did not affect aerobic stability of silages.
