Make more, better, and safer feed for your cattle.
Feeding cattle, whether your yard holds 50 head or 50,000, is a fascinating and challenging business. There’s always something new to learn. Ensiling may be new to you, or maybe you need a refresher.
After nearly 30 years of learning, experience, and working with dairy and beef clients across the United States, we’re here to help you make and manage fermented feeds and forages. These feeds are the focus of our business.
We aim to provide resources that create profitability, assurance, and a high-quality end product for your cattle operation.
“We often hear beef producers say - they’re just beef cattle - they’ll eat anything. Our answer is - maybe, but should they?”

Controlling the controllables
Comprehensive learning modules for beef producers, with safety and packing density in mind.
Harvest Plan
Start here
Start with the end in mind by evaluating previous years and prepare for challenges - “if/then.” Plan for optimal packing density.
Dry Matter
Mirroring maturity
Mother Nature’s kindest and cruelest: too much or too little rain, blazing temps or freezing chills. Doing your best with what she deals, coming close as possible to perfect.
Chop Length Kernel Process
Measures matter
Be the sharpest tool in the shed. Get every gram of starch into the bunk and digested properly. Monitor often and adjust as needed.
Packing
Artistry on wheels
A crucial step in getting oxygen out. Be the pack driver that safely and sanely packs a drive-over pile. Delivery rate, weight, and patterning make or break this step.
Sealing
Finish strong
You’re not done until it’s sealed. After all the work of harvest, fermentation and aerobic stability are key to a year’s worth of feed.
“Efficient silage is safe silage”
The late Dr. Keith Bolsen, Professor Emeritus, Kansas State University
“Send everyone home safe,” was Dr. Bolsen’s mantra, and we carry on his mission to educate our clients through on-farm trainings, seminars, webinars, videos, and printed materials. We offer free coloring books in English and Spanish chock full of practical information and ideas - perfect for employee meetings, 4-H and FFA groups, and of course children who live on or near the farm or feedyard.
