[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1525002, member: 1715"] Yes. There are two main issues with corn silage. High overhead is one. :cry2: Some get around this by hiring customer harvesters - - but they are not available everywhere. The other issue is feeding cost. Some get around this by strip grazing, but acidosis is an issue here, especially with continental breeding. The Canadan artic may be different and never grows any corn cobs. The best fit for high er energy forage is with weanlings. You can justify a lot if the alternative is grain. I plan to grow some back grounding corn next year. [/QUOTE]
