Value of Silage and Hay Comparison
A simple rule values silage at half the worth of good legume hay. Silage at 10 tons to the acre yields about 50 bushels, making 1 ton worth roughly five bushels of hay plus 300 pounds of hay. With corn at 75 cents a bushel and hay at $15 a ton, good silage is about $6 per ton.
Tomatoes Provide Vitamin C and A
A medium tomato offers about half a unit of vitamin C and roughly one fifth of the recommended vitamin A per person. The note highlights tomatoes as a source of these nutrients.
