Silage Supports Winter Dairy Feeding Efficiency
Farmers are urged to substitute silage and legume hay for grain to maintain milk production while conserving grain for human food. Silage keeps dairy cattle healthy when pasture is unavailable, enhances digestion of green grasses, and blends with dry hay and minimal grain for cost effective rations. Siloing corn extends harvest value by preserving the plant’s remaining 60 percent for feed.
The Silo as a Solution for Crop Losses and Feed Bills
The article extols silos to preserve corn before drought frost or insects devastate fields. It argues silage reduces feed costs, urges farmers to build or buy silos now, and offers tips from state extension services and the U S Department of Agriculture on materials and capacity.
