How many bushels of corn silage in a ton?
Corn silage is typically measured in tons rather than bushels, but if you need to make a conversion, one ton of corn silage is roughly equivalent to about 8 to 10 bushels of corn. The exact conversion can vary depending on the moisture content and the specific type of corn. Generally, the conversion factor used is about 9 bushels per ton.
How much does corn (silage) cost?
The cost of corn silage can vary significantly based on factors such as location, quality, and market conditions. On average, it may range from $30 to $70 per ton, but prices can fluctuate. It's also influenced by the cost of production and local demand. For precise pricing, it's best to check with local suppliers or agricultural markets.
How do you convert a ton of corn silage to bushel weight?

What is the megajuoles of energy of a silage?
The energy content of silage varies depending on what constitutes silage. Remember, silage is fermented chopped fodder that is often comprised of corn or barley, but sometimes also grass hay, and oats, wheat, rye, and triticale. Energy content also varies on when the fodder was cut for silage. For example, corn silage that was cut at a late-maturity stage will have less energy than corn silage cut when it was at early or mid-maturity.It is actually impossible to accurately predict or know what the energy content of silage is for all silage produced, and the energy content of a feedstuff like silage isn't measured in the same way that the energy (carbohydrate) content of a food item we would eat is. Energy is measured in Mcal/kg or Mcal/lb of DM (dry matter) or in percent (%) of DM, and as various values including Non Structural Carbohydrates, Net Energy, Metabolizable Energy, Digestible Energy, and Total Digestible Nutrients (TDN). As you can see in this paper, TDN and other energy values differ from one feed type to another.
How much corn did Iowa grow in 2009?
