DFRC is part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service. As a result of the center's 20 years of work, dairy forage use is much different today. Alfalfa and corn silage quality have improved and dairy forage production has become more efficient and environmentally conscious. Developed a field macerator that reduces alfalfa hay drying time by 2 days, increases dry matter digestibility, and improves protein utilization by the cow. Today's research at DFRC holds even more promise for the forage and dairy industries.
