[QUOTE="dwadedude, post: 940599, member: 18756"] I am interested in owning a 180 dairy cow operation but I am stumped as to how much silage I will need to feed the cows for the whole year. One guy I talked to said I need at least 1000 acres for silage. Is this true? I was online and I found that it depends on the weight of the cows. I am open to suggestions and other ideas of to feed. I am thinking about pasture. So If what is said is true than I would need 180 acres of pasture. I could feed round bales but I would need more than 1000. Some help and guidance would be very much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
