Maize silage drives cows to reach genetic potential

“Maize silage keeps cows in good condition so that they can partition their feed to making milk ... We trust Barry’s advice and knowledge, and he understands our needs.”

Hardy, durable maize performs regardless of the season

“Maize silage helps keep the cows’ energy up in times of high demand, such as calving and mating, and fills the feed deficit when the grass is a bit stalky and there’s not much around.”
