An extra 4 tons of silage per acre is certainly reason enough for Gary Wilbur to continue growing narrow-row corn. Neighbor Roger Cooley feels the same way. These Leoti, KS, growers market their silage to westernKansas feed-yards. Their switch from 30" to 15" rows came when both saw an...

If forage inventories dictate that maximum yield is not needed, raising the cutter bar can change the moisture and quality of the corn silage being harvested off the field. The influence of cutting height Raising the cutter bar from 6 to 18 inches can reduce yield up to 15 percent (see fig...

Cattle fed drought-stressed corn silage gained about 10% slower but were just as efficient as cattle fed irrigated corn silage. Because the irrigated corn out yielded the drought corn (17.4 VS. 8.2 tons per acre), the irrigated silage gave a much higher cattle gain per acre (1928 VS. 940...

Yield, of course, isn’t the only factor researchers look at in these trials. “We really key in on fiber digestibility and how the growing conditions impact that,” Lawrence says. In general, Lawrence says that uNDF240 — the amount of undigested neutral detergent fiber left in the rumen...
I would probably add a fair amount of grain silage crops, around 20 or 30% of the crops could be oats or corn or millet or sorgum. It seems to me like Silage is an ideal thing to have to supplement feeding of hay overwinter to dairy cows. Seems like the advantages over hay make up...
