How do we know when it’s time to chop corn to create silage? Farmers check corn silage readiness by looking at the “milk line” on the kernel—the line between the solid starch and the milky part of the kernel. When the milk line is about ½ to ⅔ down the kernel, the corn has the right balance of moisture and starch for good silage. Farmers also check whole plant moisture to make sure it will pack and ferment properly in the silo or bunker. #WesternIowaDairyalliance #realdairy #silageseason #iowaco
