Silage Blends
These blends produce good yields with excellent silage nutrition quality. The addition of a forage pea to small grains usually increases crude protein content by 2-5%. The height of the crop is reduced, however the dense leaf matter produces excellent palatability, protein levels between 10-15%.

- Crude Protein = 10 – 15% (approx.)
- ADF % = 32-38% average
- NDF% = 52-58% average
Cut when triticale in soft dow for best tonnage / protein compromise.
Pea Oatlage Blend
