Home Silage for Profit on the Dairy Farm
C V Gregory emphasizes silage as the most economical winter feed, noting 10 to 13 tons of green feed per acre when made into silage.

It explains sizing by depth rather than diameter, notes that deeper silos retain silage better, and recommends a plan to feed two inches daily. It gives typical dimensions for a quarter section and cites a table from bulletin 100. It also describes a wind elevator, canvas tube, thorough trampling, and top coverage with air tight vats to prevent spoilage.
