Highly-digestible and slow-release in the rumen, maize grain is a great choice for maximising peak in the spring.
Feeding maize requires a transition for the cow because of the high starch content - so gradually increase intake over time. Feed maize as required between 2kg and 4kg per cow per day to maximise output.
