Silage remains a popular feed source for dairies, beef feedlots, and cow/calf producers because of high digestibility, easy feeding ability, and minimal loss of nutrients from harvest through storage.

Silages are feed ingredients fed primarily to dairy and beef cattle. Silages are usually produced a few times per year and stored on the farm for year-round feeding.

The devastating results of fire can include death, serious injury, financial loss, property damage, business interruption and production downtime.
