The author begins by explaining the many advantages of ensilage over traditional haymaking methods, including reduced loss of nutrients and greater resistance to spoilage. The author then provides detailed instructions on how to grow, harvest, and ensile maize, as well as other green fodder crops, such as rye and sorghum.
