Corn Intercropping Systems to Improve Corn Forage Quality
Corn is good for extending the grazing season. Corn would normally meet the energy requirements of mature beef cattle, but occasionally the
Demonstration of Corn Intercropping Systems to Improve Corn Forage Quality
Over 100 corn forage samples have been analyzed for quality by PCBFA in the last few years, and the majority of the samples came
Field Scale Corn Seeding Rate Trial
Plant population refers to the number of plants per acre; planting or seeding rate refers to the number of seeds planted per acre.
Determining Optimum Nitrogen Rates for Corn
One of the most costly and important inputs in corn production is nitrogen fertilizer. The objective of this project is to help develop

On-farm corn trials for Grazing or Silage
In parts of the Peace, the practice of extended winter grazing with standing forage corn is continuing to gain more popularity among produce
Corn Seeding Rates Trial
Plant population refers to the number of plants per acre; planting or seeding rate refers to the number of seeds planted per acre. Optimum
Evaluation of 23 Low Heat Unit Corn Hybrids for Forage
An important focus by PCBFA has been reducing feed costs by examining different options for extending the grazing season in the Peace.
Evaluation of Low Heat Unit Corn Hybrids Compared to Barley for Grazing
Well managed corn production and grazing plans will reduce or eliminate labour, feed and manure handling costs during the winter. One of the
On-farm Testing of 7 Corn Hybrids for Forage Production
Grazing your herd on corn can lower your winter feed costs, reduce your operating expenses and save you time. Corn also has the potential to
Corn for Silage Grazing & Silage Production
As an annual, it can be grazed successfully during the fall and winter to extend the grazing season, and thereby reducing feed cost per head
