Making Corn Silage for Dairy Cows | Maryland Farm & Harvest

A dairy cow needs a lot of energy to produce all that milk, and corn is often part of their balanced diet. We visit J.A. Horst and Sons in Clear Spring as farmer Brent Horst is harvesting corn silage. While the corn is still green, the plants are chopped up, packed into a silo, and fermented. UMD extension agent Jeff Semler explains how this preserves the corn and provides the cows with healthy, nutritious feed all year long.
