This work evaluated the effect of bacterial and/or enzymatic inoculants on chemical composition and aerobic stability in corn silage, made in mini-silos. The treatments were: CS (control silage), SBI (silage with bacterial inoculant), SBEI (silage with bacterial and enzymatic inoculant) and SEI (silage with enzymatic inoculant). The use of inoculants did not affect the organic matter (87,43%), crude protein (7,99%), neutral detergent fiber (55,43%) and acid detergent fiber (27,67%) contents. The SEI and CS treatments showed the lowest (3,28) and the highest (3,42) pH values in the beginning and after an air exposure period, showed again the lowest (3,87) and the highest (6,64) pH values, respectively. The inoculants used did not affect N-amonniacal contents of the silages. The treatments with inoculants presented the lowest temperature peak, more time to reach this temperature and the highest aerobics stability.
