A well-managed silage is a nutritious, palatable and cost-effective feed ingredient for cattle operations. Today, silage makes up 50-60% most dairy cows' diets. Increasing the silage component of a cow's diet makes milk production more cost effective and sustainable. Some leading farms with 40L-milk-per-day cows make silage 70-80% of their cows' ration.
Several factors can get in the way of higher portions of silage in diets, including: feed material digestibility, poor fermentation and mycotoxin contamination. Improperly managed, these can lead to higher feed costs, poor performance, poor health status and lower profits.
We invited you to join us and your peers for a discussion of how to produce top quality silage using a full set of tools, including proper silage management, silage inoculants and mycotoxin deactivators.
Main Topics
- Best practices for nutritious, hygienic and palatable silage
- Counteracting fumonisins during the ensiling process
