Management Guidelines

  • Highly recommended for silage use within its adapted maturity.
  • Excellent plant agronomics will support moderate-high to high plant densities, especially under irrigated production.
  • Roundup Ready® and IGNITE® herbicide technologies expand weed control options and provide an alternative for managing herbicide resistance.
  • A strong fertility program for silage production is important to maximize tonnage and maintain the quality of the silage.
  • Monitor harvest moisture closely as harvest approaches. Hybrids may be drier or wetter than physical appearance indicates.
  • When storing TMF hybrids in a pile or a bunker, recommended moisture levels for harvesting range from 65 percent to 68 percent; for bags, 62 percent to 68 percent.
  • Moderately hard grain will benefit from a kernel processor.
