Dairy show notes reveal corn silage benefit and milking facility upgrades
Agricultural experts report silage losses below 10 percent when harvested at full dent stage, with seepage losses over 20 percent at early stages. Harvested silage yields about one and a half times more feed nutrients per acre than ears alone. Officials outline a Cow Wash milking operation with 1,000 overflow stalls, stainless sinks, a 35-capacity milking parlor, and centralized milk handling supervised by the Pennsylvania Dairy Association. The event, sponsored by state and industry groups, invites U.S. and Canadian breeders and is free to attend. Significance includes winners in the County dairy show circuit and plans for the Harrisburg Black and White Show.
