Silage and Urea Use in Beef Cattle Nutrition

Keene advocates silage and urea supplementation as a method to improve nutrient distribution in cattle feed. He expects reduced handling charges and better nutrient utilization through analytical testing and targeted supplementation. A recent grain shortfall prompted a high energy silage to address deficiencies.

Keener feeds 400 steers and expands storage on 125 acre dairy farm

Keener, with registered Holsteins from Arthur Sweigart and Frey lines, reports herd milk totals of 1552 lbs and 58 lbs butterfat per cow. He added two 24x60 silos, a 60x134 building with four ventilators and a 50000 gallon manure tank, planning eight months of feeding for 550–700 lb feeders aiming for 1100 lb cattle at sale. Corn silage from rye followed by corn fields yields high quality silage this season.
