2023 Fall Crop Forage Results (Milk stage)

We took silage samples at the milk stage on June 23rd in the fall rye and winter triticale. In the milk stage cut Performer (2024 launch) showed well as did KWS Serafino (available now), see details below.
We had reports of some customers Serafino irrigated silage yields coming in about 20-22 MT per ac in late June and they will be seeding oats behind it for forage. 

Our fall crop demo plots have hybrid fall rye, fall triticale and winter wheat varieties seeded. The hybrid rye was at 0.8 of a unit per ac (roughly 18 plants per square foot. The fall triticale and winter wheat was seeded at 40 plants target rate.
Winter wheat will be taken at the dough stage in the coming weeks and all will also be take to grain yields this fall.

This in not replicated or scientific data. It is side by side on small scale as we cut a 5'x10' spot from even spots in our yield trials and sent samples to Down to Earth Labs for moisture corrected results and basic nutrient comparisons.
