FORAGE TEST: Dairyland Lab. FORAGE SOURCE: Wyffels Research Micro-Strip Test Sites in Illinois and Iowa, 2004-2006. Minimum of 12 replications per hybrid per year.
NOTE: Feed values may vary due to environmental conditions or specific crop management practices.

Feed Quality Index - Beef
Wyffels Research evaluation based on yield, fiber content, crude protein, and N.F.C.

N.E.-G SSCSE (Net Energy-Gain)
Schwab/Shaver corn silage evaluation. Higher value is best.

N.E.-M SSCSE (Net Energy-Maintenance)
Schwab/Shaver corn silage evaluation. Higher value is best.

N.F.C. (Non-Fiber Carbohydrates)
Measures the carbohydrates and energy primarily from the grain portion of the silage. Higher value is best.
