Corn silage is almost to good of feed for beef cows. If spring calving you need to be careful not to overfeed as it will make big calves. For our beef cows we chop rye and then plant a forage sorghum to also be chopped. I do feed some corn silage in the coldest part of winter. We have our own silage bagger with a seven ft tunnel. I have around 25 moma cows and finish all my calves along with a few bought ones. I have fed corn silage off a pile on the ground but was unhappy with the waste. There are plenty of cheap smaller choppers and wagons around for reasonable prices. I watched a Deere 3940 with one row corn head in decent shape sell for $450 last week and $1000 will buy a decent wagon. If you make a pile make it long and narrow and pack it well before covering. I would go with a bag it there is one available. Tom

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
