Corn Silage Variety Trial in Greenlee County, 1988

Abstract

Eleven corn hybrids were grown for silage in Greenlee county in 1988. Excellent yields were recorded; the top hybrid, Northrup King's S 8505, produced nearly 40 tons per acre at 70% moisture. Laboratory analyses were run on samples from each hybrid; these analyses, plus calculations of crude protein and energy per acre were made.
