Abstract

Solid state fermentation has been used to increase the nutritional value of prickly pear cactus in order to be used as feedstuff in cattle feeding in both extensive or intensive feeding systems. Nevertheless, information of effects of these feedstuffs in ruminal methane production is limited. Therefore, this investigation aimed to evaluate the effect of solid state fermentation (SSF) of prickly pear cactus with yeast cultures on in vitro ruminal methane production and fermentation patterns. Three experimental treatments were evaluated: prickly pear cactus (N); pricly pear cactus pretreated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae cultures (N+SC); and prickly pear cactus pretreated with Kluyveromyces marxianus ITD00262 cultures (N+KM). All treatments were fermented in ruminal liquor and ruminal fermentation patterns and methane production were measured. Results show that N+KM increased propionate production and reduced methane and CO2 productions (p<0.05). Therefore, it is concluded that SSF of prickly pear cactus with K. Marxianus reduces in vitro methane production.
