It can provide several benefits for both farmers and livestock. For farmers, grazing corn can be a cost-effective way to produce feed, since it can often provide higher yields than other forage crops like barley silage, in addition to providing a sound source of winter forage material. For livestock, grazing corn provides a high-quality, palatable forage source that is rich in energy and protein. Once the grazing period is over, any remaining corn can be harvested for silage or left in the field to decompose and provide organic matter. 24 Ration MZ FieldPlus Grazing Corn Hybrids
