Despite all the challenges of this year, we had a fantastic spring corn silage trial with record number of entries. Our traditional field day had to be canceled, but we moved online and had 61 attendees and over 240 views of the virtual tour video on YouTube.  Information from trials in previous years can be found on the UF/IFAS Corn Silage and Forage Field Day – UF Animal Science page.

I would like to express my gratitude to the UF/IFAS Plant Science Research and Education Unit crew for continuing the maintenance of our trial during the pandemic, and all the company representatives who took time to record videos and interact with us during our virtual field day.   Thanks everyone for the support. Be on the lookout for our summer results, coming soon.
