Service Details

Whole-plant corn, harvested ripe and fermented to hold its energy. Steady, nutritious feed for cattle through every season.

Corn Silage
Green Fodder That Actually Keeps Livestock Fed Year-Round

  • Corn silage is whole maize — stalk, leaves, cobs — chopped at the right stage and fermented without air. The result is a high-energy feed that cattle digest well.
  • It’s the standard feed for dairy cows, beef cattle, goats, and sheep when pasture dries up or fresh grass is hard to come by.
  • Kiran Green Energy Solutions Private Limited does the full job — we grow the maize, turn it into silage, and deliver it ready to feed.

Benefits of Corn Silage

Nutritional Snapshot (Typical Values)

Benefit Description
High nutritional value Rich in energy, fiber, and starch; improves milk yield and animal health
Year-round availability Fermentation preserves fodder for 12+ months, eliminating seasonal shortages
Reduced feed cost Replaces expensive concentrates and imported feeds
Better digestion Fermentation breaks down fibers, increasing digestibility for ruminants
Minimal wastage Animals consume almost the entire plant (unlike dry hay)
Parameter Value (Dry Matter Basis)
Dry matter content 30–35% (at harvest)
Crude protein 7–9%
Starch 25–35%
Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF) 40–50%
Total Digestible Nutrients (TDN) 65–72%
pH (after fermentation) 3.8–4.2

Organic Herbs and Produce for You

“From farm to feed bunk — we deliver corn silage you can count on, every month of the year.”

Our End-to-End Corn Silage Services

1. Committed Agricultural Farming and Mechanisation
  • Large volumes of corn (maize) are produced using a fully mechanised planting system with precision planters and GPS for linear planting.
  • Different types of plant varieties which are bred to be specifically used for coming from our silage program, offer maximum biomass yield, include high starch content, and have good resistance to the most common pest and disease problems.
  • Corn is planted at a density designed to achieve the maximum number of tons per acre while still allowing for good crop stand establishment.
  • Advance irrigation systems that are designed specifically for use with Napier grass, and utilize scheduling based upon soil moisture sensors & timers.
  • We use waste decomposers, organic NPK, and natural pest repellents—so we don’t have to keep buying expensive chemical fertilizers anymore

Crop Monitoring Parameters

Parameter Monitored Benefit
Crop health (NDVI) Early detection of nutrient deficiency or disease
Biomass estimation Predict yield per acre before harvest
Moisture stress mapping Optimize irrigation timing
Harvest readiness Pinpoint exact harvest window (30–35% dry matter)
  • Crews include agronomists, machine operators, drone pilots, and silage technicians.
  • Team size is calculated against acreage so nobody’s sitting idle and nobody’s overwhelmed
Acre-Wise Harvest Planning
  • Every acre gets GPS-tagged, soil-tested, and assigned its own ID.
  • Planting is staggered so the harvest window runs 2–3 weeks rather than a single rush.
  • We don’t harvest by the calendar. Timing is based on dry matter (30–35%) and where the kernel milk line sits (50–75%).

Factors Determining Harvest Timing

Parameter Target Range Action
Whole plant dry matter 30–35% Harvest immediately
Kernel milk line 50–75% Optimal starch content
Plant moisture 65–70% Ideal for ensiling
Kernel denting Just starting Do not wait for full dent
* Miss the window? Too early = low starch, too late = poor packing and spoilage.
  • Self-propelled forage harvesters with built-in kernel processors — cut and crush in one pass.
  • Chop length is held at 1–2 cm. That’s short enough to pack tight but long enough for the rumen to work with.
  • Every kernel gets cracked open so the animal actually absorbs the starch instead of passing it through whole
  • Our own fleet of tipper trucks and forage wagons handles the haul.
  • Chopped corn reaches the pit within 2–4 hours of cutting. That window matters — dry matter loss.
  • Trucks are GPS-tracked so harvest and pit crews can coordinate without phone tag

Silage Preparation Process

Step Method
Packing Layer-by-layer filling in bunker silos or bag silos
Compacting Heavy tractors (10+ passes) to achieve density of 700–800 kg/m³ – removes oxygen
Sealing Oxygen barrier film + UV-resistant tarpaulin
Fermentation 45–60 days at pH 3.8–4.2
Temperature monitoring Weekly checks to prevent heating

Our Silage Quality Standards

Parameter Our Standard
Dry matter at ensiling 30–35%
Chop length 1–2 cm
Kernel processing score >70% (cracked kernels)
Fermentation pH 3.8–4.2
Mold or spoilage Zero tolerance
Butyric acid <0.1% (no undesirable fermentation)
Aerobic stability >7 days after opening
Acre-Wise Harvest Planning
  • 12-month buffer stock stored in covered bunkers.
  • Supply holds through monsoon, winter, and drought — no seasonal gaps
    Available as:
  • Loose silage (for daily feeding straight off the pile)
  • Baled silage (wrapped bales, easier to transport and stack)

Corn Silage vs. Napier Grass for Animal Feed

Feature Corn Silage Napier Grass
Primary use High-energy dairy feed Maintenance / dry animal feed
Energy (TDN) 65–72% 50–55%
Crude protein 7–9% 8–12%
Starch content 25–35% <5%
Best for Lactating cows, fattening Heifers, dry cows, goats
Fermentation required Yes (always) Optional
* Verdict: Corn silage for production animals; Napier grass for maintenance. Many farms use both for a balanced ration.
