Estimating silage value to the crop producer (1993)
Abstract
The value of silage is useful information for anyone considering the harvest of corn for silage. A farmer planting and harvesting silage for his own use needs to know the profitability of silage relative to alternative crops that could be grown. A farmer wanting to sell it to a neighbor needs to know its value relative to the price that could be obtained by allowing the crop to mature and harvest as a grain. A farmer may want to contract with nearby dairies to grow silage and needs to know the profit potential. This guide provides information about estimating silage value to the crop producer.
