Manage episode 389666152 series 2887467
On this week’s OviCast we talk to Dr Tim Keady about the importance of silage testing and what the results mean.
Tim emphasises the importance of getting a silage test conducted correctly early to know the feed value of your winter forage.
He explains the variation in results nationally, what each of the measures mean and most importantly, the implications for feeding.
We discuss how the results could highlight areas to focus on for next year’s silage harvest.
We finish up with Tim discussing the implications of feeding different feed value silages has on animal performance and the amount of supplementation required.
