General comment Corn silage is an important source of forage in the United States, making up over 40% of the value of the forage fed to dairy cows. It is also a significant feed in the beef finishing industry. Corn silage is a high-yielding, relatively consistent source of forage and provides a highly digestible and palatable feed for livestock. It is popular for ruminant animals due to its high energy and digestibility. It is used for feeding all dairy cattle on the farm and must be supplemented with protein, minerals, and sometimes energy to meet the animal's nutrient requirements.
