- Milk producers need good quality green fodder throughout the year to produce good quality milk.
- If milk producers cultivate green maize for green fodder, then these animals get fodder for only 10 to 30 days.
- But if milk producers use silage, then animals get green fodder throughout the year.
- Using silage reduces labor costs for the farmer
- Crops such as maize, oats, millet, lucerne are perfect for silage making.
