Maize

The large acreage of maize grown in the UK should come as no surprise when you consider the crop's package of features and benefits. The significant yield that maize can deliver is achieved with a single cut and the crop has a consistent quality that is maintained over a relatively long harvest period. Forage maize has a very high energy and starch content and it makes a very palatable addition to your winter feeding programme.
