Dale Schwarre Farm Management Agent explains silage additives to cut beef production costs. A mix of urea, limestone, and dicalcium phosphate added to ton of 30 percent DM corn silage raises the ration to 11 percent on a 90 percent DM basis at 80 to 90 cents per ton, with protein options sometimes adding about $2.00 per ton.
