This study was carried out to determine the chemical composition, in vitro gas production parameters (metabolisable energy, in vitro organic matter digestibility and net energy lactation) and some fermentation characteristics of alfalfa silages supplemented with different levels of bay (Laurus nobilis L.) leaf powder (LLP). Bay leaf powder was added to alfalfa at 0% (control), 0.5% (LLP05), 1.0% (LLP10), 1.5% (LLP15), 2.0% (LLP20), 4.0% (LLP40) and 8.0% (LLP80) levels and ensiled for 75 days. At the end of the study, the dry matter content of alfalfa silage decreased in the LLP05 group compared to the control group, while the dry matter content increased in the LLP20, LLP40 and LLP80 groups. In LLP80 group, crude ash content was found to be low. LLP10 and higher levels significantly decreased the pH of the silage while LLP20 and higher levels significantly decreased its lactic acid content. Bay leaf treatment had no effect on NDF, ADF, crude protein, crude fat, acetic acid, propionic acid, in vitro gas production parameters of silages. Butyric acid and ammonia nitrogen content were not detected any of the silages. Consequently, it was concluded that LLP can be used at 1% level in alfalfa silages and may have a positive contribution.
