Buffalo IL
provides about 6.46 tons per acre of corn in a ton of silage if i do the math correctly. Figure no ears no tonnage. That is not an exact amount because I didn't do a complete moisture change from 10% moisture to 65%. but I didn't add the cob to the tonnage. Maybe should have used 70#/ bu ear corn. So 15 bu corn is probaly .64 tons per acre. You really won't be removing as much fertility as what some think because of the much less tonnage.
What to pay for drought corn for silage?
