[QUOTE="ddg1263, post: 803405, member: 8445"] With the corn prices so high I thought it might be useful to buy a john deere 458 silage special and raise a field of corn and just harvest it as silage to feed to my cows. I can put some cotton seed with it to up the protien a bit. I need to buy a baler becasue my cattle operation in getting bigger, and I really need to be efficient with my land, time, and equipment. Is this a good idea to try and raise corn instead of hay, and turn my cows out on the land I have in reserve for my hay fields and feed out silage durning the winter? Has anyone had any sucess with the John Deere 458 silage special? I could always use it as a standard bailer if the silage harvest did not work.... Anyway, I am just thinking of some way to help with the increase in the corn prices. Thanks in advance... [/QUOTE]
