Burn Down Days

Aug 01, 2024

Join us for our annual “Burn Down Days” event!

Lunch will be served. Events are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Bring 3-4 stalks from each field you would like to have tested for moisture. The stalks will be chipped up and then put into a near-infrared (NIR) machine for accurate moisture readings. This will help you determine the best time to harvest your fields and optimize the potential of your corn silage. Whole-plant corn silage is the primary forage in dairy cows’ diets. Make sure to cut the stalks to the same height that you normally harvest at.

Contact your location or your feed representative with questions.

• IAS Cuba City Mill: Monday, August 26

• Ungs Shopping Center, Luxemburg: Wednesday, August 28
• IAS Monona Location: Thursday, August 29
