Best timing for silage corn harvest per Utah State agronomist
Glen T. Baird of Utah State Agricultural College advises harvest when kernels are well dented and ears reach about 50 percent moisture while stalks are 70 to 75 percent moisture for optimal silage. He notes 75 percent hardened kernels produce best aroma and packing, warns against overmature or immature silage, and urges tight silos with sharp knives and no added water unless necessary.
