We cannot believe we made it to Season 3 without a silage episode! Today that all changes, as Ryan and Justin talk with forage systems specialist Joe Lawrence of the Cornell PRO-DAIRY team. Joe Lawrence draws upon his years of experience with Cornell and as a private certified crop adviser to chat about the science of corn silage management and hybrid selection, and reflects on lessons learned from the 2024 silage season. 


Hosts: Ryan Spelman and Justin Brackenrich, Penn State Extension
Guest: Joe Lawrence, Cornell University
