Silage and Hay: What’s The Difference?

Both silage and hay are popular ways of feeding livestock when they cannot graze during winter or a drought. They comprise grass and undergo a preservation method of forage.

Despite the overarching similarities, these two have several differences. Besides their primary differences, they have several distinctions. These include:

  • Moisture content

    While silage has more moisture content, ranging between 40% and 60%, hay usually has less moisture content, which is 12%.

  • Storage methods

    Farmers compact and store silage in silage sheets, an airtight condition that prevents them from drying. In contrast, hay undergoes mowing, which the farmers then dry and store in bales.
