The effect of partial wilting on the feeding value of forage sorghum silage

Smith, E.F.; Ward, G.M.; Richardson, D.; Dunn, L.; Boren, Fred W.

The object of this experiment was to evaluate forage sorghum (cut at the same physiological stage of maturity) ensiled with varying moisture contents. All forage was cut during two days but ensiled at three different times: immediately after cutting: after drying in the field about 24 hours; and after drying in the field about 48 hours.
