Sample corn stalks should be from a representative area in the field, and should be cut the morning of the event at the height you plan to set your chopper. If you are unable to bring your stalks to the event location during the dry down time frame, please reach out to the contacts below to make a plan to get your samples picked up.Hosted by: NWNY Dairy, Livestock & Field Crops Program
